WORK DRUGS

Work Drugs specialize in cocktails-compatible indie pop inspired by the soft rock era of artists like Christopher Cross and Donald Fagen, but with a lo-fi spark uniquely their own.  Embracing the label “smooth-fi,” Work Drugs are purveyors of all things palatable to lovers of yacht rock, quiet storm r&b, and 80’s synth pop. 

Winner of the Beijing Film Festival's coveted Crying Monkey Award and runner of recipients of the Nantucket Regatta’s Golden Seahorse Prize, Work Drugs have stayed humble and hungry throughout the past decade, touring with Two Door Cinema Club, Peter, Bjorn & John, and Kings of Convenience among many others and continuously recording and releasing studio efforts.  The band was recently featured in 

 

THE TISBURYS

The Tisburys are an indie rock band from Philadelphia, PA led by singer-songwriter Tyler Asay. The band has released three full-length albums, most recently 2022’s Exile On Main Street, which combines influences of heartland rock and power pop hooks with jangly guitars and gritty lyrical storytelling. Their music has received praise and radio play from NPR, Little Steven's Underground Garage, and 88.5 WXPN, where they played the XPoNential Music Festival. They have shared the stage with national acts (Gin Blossoms, Jenny Lewis, Drive-By Truckers, Old 97's) and local Philadelphia heroes such as The War On Drugs, Baroness, and Dave Hause. The band recently completed their first East Coast tour and finished recording their new album (due out next year).

 

THE COORDINATORS

The Coordinators are Robert Pino and Tim W. Smith, lifelong best friends living and recording from home in South Philly. On their new EP "Yeah, Well...",  they try their hand at fuzzed out garage rock with jazzy harmony and buzzy synths. As BuffaBlog writes, "fans of the Strokes and Arctic Monkeys would find a lot to enjoy here not just for the similarities but some of the risks an up and coming band is willing to take".
