As of late, lo-fi solo artists and bands have been accounting for a growing segment of the Philadelphia indie scene.

Here to join the crowd is Denver-turned-Philly band Straight White Teeth, the dream pop brainchild of former Flashbulb Fires frontman Patrick McGuire. SWT consists of McGuire on the keyboard/vocals accompanied by Pat Thomas and Ella Trujillo on contributing instrumentals, the band will be opening for neo-folk group the Golden Suits tonight at Johnny Brenda’s.

The band’s most recent single “Wind Takes” was released on September 15th, and it’s got a dreamy wave of synthesizers mixing with a bubbling New Wave bounce resminiscent of Tokyo Police Club and Passion Pit. Check it out below and come see the group for yourself and welcome them to Philly tonight in Fishtown. Check the XPN Concert Calendar for more information.
