THE SHOWDOWN: Live music in Philly from June 25-31

POSTED: Monday, June 25, 2012, 3:15 PM

Filed Under: Music The Showdown

Every Monday, Brittany Thomas rounds up the week's sure-bet live shows. This week: Purling Hiss, Fucktard, Erin Willett and more.

Monday: Brian Medlin's voice and the droning piano chords are hauntingly reminiscent of Elliot Smith, particularly his From a Basement on a Hill album. Despite noticing the similarity immediately, there's something unique to Medlin's sound, something incredibly endearing about the passion in his lyricism. 8 p.m., free, North Star Bar, 2639 Poplar St., 215-787-0488. northstarbar.com.
