Somehow Sofar Sounds : Philadelphia is hitting their 4th Anniversary.
The now world-wide phenomenon was a few shy of twenty cities world-wide
when Philadelphia joined the ranks. These days, the shows are all over
the globe and it seems like there are just shy of twenty dates in NYC
alone each month. It all started in London, back in 2009, and slowly
spread during the next two years to New York, Paris, DC, Los Angeles,
Pune India, Houston, Brighton, Seattle, New Dehli, Sydney, Madrid,
Berlin, Toronto, Dallas-Forth Worth, and Glasgow before hitting the City
of Brotherly Love.
During the next 10 days I'm going to look back at four years of Sofar Sounds: Philadelphia trying to give my version of the best videos. Please comment and share what were your favorites!
#4 Dirty Dollhouse - "Teenage Dirtbag (Wheatus Cover)"
On a brief list of things that are cool are:
1. Being friends with musicians
2. Being cool enough friends with a musician that they take you seriously when you suggest an off the wall cover
3. Said off the wall cover gets played at your favorite concert series and is on the internet for all to see
4. Said cover kicks ass!
Is there really anything else I should mention?

#3 Maitland - "Dust Of Old Leaves"
Sofar Sounds is an amazing series. Where else can you find a series that's trusted for new music each month here people flock without knowing who will play, what style of music will be played etc. But that's exactly what happens at Sofar Sounds, and Carolyn Lederach Area Coordinator of Sofar Sounds: Philadelphia takes it to the extreme showing off amazing band after amazing band that you hadn't heard yet.
"Dust Of Old Leaves" shows off the best of unearthed Philly music. While the world rapidlyis finding out about the depth of musical talent in town, we somehow get to keep a few treasures to ourselves (for now).
Check out Josh Hines and Jeff Mach in Maitland with "Dust of Old Leaves" from (from a cabin in the woods).
