Philly Local Philes: Work Drugs’ “Daddy Bear”
It’s the first day back to work after a long holiday, so we’re gonna need some Work Drugs. Today’s Philly Local Phile digs into “Daddy Bear,” a deep cut from their debut long-player Aurora Lies; give it a listen below. The band is making some headway outside of the city this winter, playing Glasslands in Brooklyn later this month and House of Blues in Boston in February. Its next Philadelphia show is at the Electric Factory, opening for Umphrey’s McGee on Feb. 11
