[DID NOT ATTEND: October 12, 2023] Tigers Jaw / Yowler / Gladie
There’s a lot of great shows at Philly Music Fest this year. Here’s the third of four nights that I would have loved to have gone to. But I have a lot of shows that I’m going to and I can only get to Philly so often.
Plus, I’ve seen Tigers Jaw twice and both shows were great. I really like their catchy emo pop punk, but I’m not sure I need to see them again. But man if I was a die hard fan, here’s three days in a row of really close concerts I could go to.
And yet… Here’s what they say about these two shows (they love playing Crossroads)
Mystery Setlists? We’re pulling out all the stops for Garwood this weekend. We’ll be playing two very distinctive sets for people who might want to come to both shows.
One of the shows setlists will concentrate on two worlds + spin, and the other will be charmer + I won’t care heavy. (Not full album plays, just most of both records, plus both sets will have some self titled oldies and newer Ep songs.)
We’re not saying which night is which combo.
So many songs. Maybe a fun cover.
Yowler, is Maryn Jones, a Philly based musician and the guitarist and lead vocalist of the band All Dogs and formerly a member of the band Saintseneca. For Yowler her songs are kind of spare and sad, but there’s some pretty heavy elements thrown in which kind of blow you away after being lulled into mellowness.
I saw Gladie open for Otoboke Beaver late last year and really enjoyed their set a lot. I would happily see them again, although this is the second time since that show that I’ve had to miss them. They were supposed to open for Charly Bliss, but cancelled at the last minute. They also played a Free at Noon recently but I didn’t go to that one. I’m sure that with each show they just get better so when I finally get to see them again, they’ll be fantastic.
