Philly Bricks: Viaduct Impossible

Philly Bricks: Viaduct Impossible

Callowhill, callously referred to as the Loft District by realtors, isn’t that. It’s not a dead industrial zone awaiting the salvation of suburban refugees blessing Philadelphia with its next hip neighborhood. Unlike the Northern Liberties’ Piazza, Callowhill isn’t a blank slate. Its proximity to Center City and industrial infrastructure make it a viable work horse.

On the heels of David L.’s sophomore full length, “The Big Dream”, comes a very limited edition 12”, “Bad The John Boy”, on November 12th. On the B-side is a “Venetian Snares remix” of the album’s title track.

Dean Hurley about “Bad the John Boy” :

“It wasn’t really recorded with the LP in mind, but it was done around the end of last year when the bulk of the album was being made. It was earmarked for something else entirely, but that thing didn’t happen in a way that required the song… so up until now, it was a ‘song with no home’.”

Thanks to Jeremy C. for these news.
