What's Up With Philly? Gladie you asked.

If you're of a certain age, you know the term TSOP.  The Sound of Philadelphia was a music movement driven by the songwriting duo of Gamble and Huff, and the song TSOP itself was very identifiable as the theme song of Soul Train.  It's crazy good.

Flash forward 4 or 5 decades, and Philly bands are still putting out a lot of great music.  Sheer Mag, Low Cut Connie, The Tisburys, War on Drugs, Dr. Dog.  Must I go on?  Well, yes, I must so that I can identify my new fave Philly band, Gladie.  Do you remember Cayetana?  Well, Augusta Koch from Cayetana has teamed up with Matt Schimelfenig (ex Three Man Cannon) to lead the new Philly band Gladie.  They're getting a fair amount of local airplay and for good reason.  They rock!

Here's one of the tracks that I'm really into - Car Alarm:
​

And here's another great tune, Future Spring:
​

I've always been a sucker for that garage band, full throttle guitar sound that Gladie is pushing.  Too bad more modern music doesn't sound like this, but hey, I'll take it where I find it.  

​Enjoy!
