If you can get past trying to pronounce their name correctly on the first try, you will quickly be propelled into the world of psychedelic funk. What is psychedelic funk?

On June 22, 2024, 2000s piano rock giant Something Corporate (SoCo for short) rocked Philadelphia’s The Met, the third official stop on their Out of Office Tour!

In my experience, there are very few things better than listening to a brand new album from top to bottom and realizing that you haven’t had to skip a single song. Magical, right? For me, it’s a rare phenomenon nowadays and I’ve grown used to passing off numbers of tracks as just “eh.” Now that I write that out, I sound like a real goody two shoes. I promise I’m just picky.

Stephen has been on my concert bucket list from the moment I discovered he was touring with his debut album, Angel Face, which was released late September of 2023. Needless to say, I was absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to attend his show at XL Live in Harrisburg, PA at the end of November.

If there is one thing to know about me, it is that I am a sucker for a well-made pop album. Give me any example of what I call “the Taylor Swift effect” and I will absolutely eat it up.

Our road to Greta Van Fleet on Tuesday night was not an easy one. This concert took place at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, a venue that seats 21,000 people, which GVF sold out.
