Trying to break-up the once-a-month Month Highlights piece into weekly segments, in order to receive a better consistency of completion. We'll see. This week is an easy one…
Tuesday: Blitzen Trapper
The Beachland Ballroom / $14 ~ $17
Looking forward to these guys coming back again. Blitzen Trapper has a well reviewed new album with American Goldwing, and will put on a great show, with the likes of Dawes and The Belle Brigade just confirming you should go early.
Wednesday: Dr. Dog
Beachland Ballroom / $16 ~ $18
Philadephia's "oddball pop" darlings, Dr. Dog will be performing with Quite Life and Wax Fang. All these bands should make for a great indie pop-rock night.
Thursday: Cold War Kids (SOLD OUT)
Beachland Ballroom / sorry about your luck
Friday: Holy Ghost!
Grog Shop / $12 ~ $14
Holy Ghost! is a great electronic duo out of NYC, making a name with some great remixes and went on to release a great full-length album. Jessica 6 and their slick version of "nu-disco" should be a great elctro-dance warm-up act.
Holy Ghost! - Hold My Breath (Cosmic Kids Remix) by CosmicKidsHo
Saturday: The War on Drugs
Beachland Tavern / $10 ~ $12
The War on Drugs is a notable pop/rock band out of Philadelphia. You may remember them as the former home of Kurt Vile, but their new stuff is good and this should be a great show. Purling Hiss & Carter Tanton are opening.
