After releasing their second album, TJ Kong & the Atomic Bomb have moved to the forefront of the local rock scene. Released last September, Manufacturing Joy has earned praise from the city's prominent publications and has made the band one of the most sought-after acts in Philly as they continue to build towards national recognition. Anchored by Dan Bruskewicz's gruff vocals and gift for storytelling, the album wraps whiskey- and cocaine-soaked stories in a unique blend of folk, rock and blues that make for an entertaining live show.
Swift Technique http://www.swifttechnique.com/ https://www.facebook.com/swifttechnique?fref=ts
Over the past five years, this seven-piece funk ensemble has relentlessly toured, performed and recorded throughout the US. The chemistry and positive energy shared by the band translates to a joyous live show. Swift Technique bring an electric party style atmosphere on stage as they play through funk, jazz, hip-hop, and many other influences---giving their NOLA funk style an undeniable Philadelphia attitude. Throughout their short history, Swift Technique have the privilege to hold direct support slots for The Meters, Wu-Tang Clan, Kermit Ruffins, Questlove of the Roots, Wale, Keri Hilson, Big Sam's Funky Nation, Orgone, Mr. Lif, The Fela! Band and others.

A relative newcomer to the Philadelphia music scene, Shark Tape introduced themselves in 2012 with the partnership of Stephen Lorek, Niles Weiss, and Dylan Mulcahy. Two EPs and a single throughout the year combine for a 10-song catalog that displays their musical proficiency and song-crafting ability.
