I Just Read About That…

[DID NOT ATTEND: March 8, 2024] The Teeth / Toby Leaman

Back in January I wrote this about the Teeth.

I had never heard of The Teeth before I saw that they had sold out three nights at Johnny Brenda’s months and months before these shows happened.

So who were they?

The Teeth was an indie rock band from Philadelphia consisting of twin brothers Aaron MoDavis on rhythm guitar and Peter MoDavis

After abruptly breaking up 15 years ago The Teeth are reuniting for a pair of special shows at Johnny Brenda’s in Philadelphia. Twin brothers Peter MoDavis (Bass) and Aaron MoDavis (guitar) will reassemble with Jonas Oesterle (drums) and Brian Ashby (guitar) on their favorite stage in the City of Brotherly Love.

Well, that short run of songs has been extended.  They’re playing this show at The Church and they’re opening for Dr. Dog in July.

Maybe that’s why Toby Leaman, a singer and the bassist for Dr. Dog opened for them at this show.  His solo album is bouncy and fun (in true Dr. Dog fashion), although solo he seems to play guitar with no accompaniment.

I don’t go to shows at the Church though, so I’m not going to this one.

I am fairly curious, however, in following the progress of this reunited band.
