Made in Philly returns for another celebration of local music

Last year, the local-centric Made in Philly festival launched as a response to the lack of Philly artists on the Made in America lineup. And though this year Made in America does feature local artists like The Menzingers, Vacationer, Cruiser and Moosh & Twist, Made in Philly announced it will return for a second year. 

Just like last year, the festival is going to be held just before Made In America – August 28th at World Cafe Live – so you can enjoy three days of amazing shows.The lineup is a pretty strong lineup of local electro, R&B and hip-hop artists.

Some of the performers include rapper Joie Kathos, R&B singer Gogo Morrow, MC Khemist and pop / hip-hop group Astronauts Really Fly. Get more info about the festival, including the full lineup and ticket prices, here. Below, listen to A.R.F’s new single “Sucker Punch.”
