WKDU Presents: Matt & Kim with Japandroids and Team Robespierre
Matt & Kim
First Philly show in a real long time! Brooklyn duo/couple Matt and Kim seem to put on one everyone's favorite live shows (see the internet). These two are quite possibly the happiest people alive. Keys and drums, grins and chuckles - Whether you go for their squathouse-pop turned nation-wide rock, or simply Matt’s stage banter, you may find yourself all smiles while you and those closest rock out, pushed up against Kim’s drumset. Lots of crowd surfing, breaking instruments and good times. Brooklyn. Fader Records.

Best Fest Fifth Anniversary featuring Meg Baird, Brown Recluse Sings, U.S. Girls, Hot Guts, Serpents Of Wisdom, My Mind, Drums
An annual, out-door, independent music festival & community event
Best Fest began when a group of young women relocated from various parts of Virginia to a twin Victorian on Baltimore Avenue, overlooking West Philadelphia’s Clark Park. After attending numerous house shows and growing more excited about the neighborhood’s lush, independent musical scene, the idea arose to bring talent from the basement onto the grass. With that, the first Best Fest debuted in June of 2005, at a venue that local residents know as the “dog bowl,” and there the event has remained ever since.
The Real Feel -- Live on air TONIGHT! ! !
Tune yourselves in tonight @ 11pm to Cosmic Nuggets/ Unconscious Compositions to hear a slammin' set by Philly's own The Real Feel!
