JUST DO IT: Harmonic Explorations w/ Science Face @ Johnny Brenda's

The folks at Johnny Brenda's (1201 N. Frankford Ave.) are working to beef up their downstairs area with free, calendar-worthy events that are low-key enough not to disrupt their casual pubbing atmosphere. On the second Tuesday of every month at 8 p.m., DJ Science Face (a.k.a Dave Hartley of Nightlands and War On Drugs micro-fame) will spin"Harmonic Explorations" — which, I must say, is a lofty-ass title for post-Beach Boys pop music. "DJ Science Face" is admittedly a name that — along with "Intervals: Harmonic Explorations" — prompts trippier expectations than stuff like T-Rex, Bowie or the occasional Rolling Stones, but Hartley says he's coming to deliver a mix of melodic retro-pop that's as catchy as it is danceable. "I'm a singer and I really enjoy harmonies," says Hartley, "which is why I like to spin mostly baroque-pop." Photo Courtesy of Ryan Carey
