Why not put a pop-up show on a Friday evening in a shoe store?


[ 6/20 ] Why not put a pop-up show on a Friday evening in the Walnut Street Doc Martens store? With free entry along with free cups ’n' cones from Little Baby's Ice Cream, the footwear store served as an impromptu venue for Philly's Dark Blue — the latest punk outfit of John Sharkey — to promote their newest single, Just Another Night With the Boys (Jade Tree). Sharkey, formerly of Clockcleaner and Puerto Rico Flowers, is joined by Andrew Mackie Nelson of Ceremony and Paint It Black, and Mike Sneeringer of Purling Hiss to create this trio, all clad in black shirts, jeans and Docs, of course.

Dark Blue will also perform at Space 1026 this Fri., June 27. Keep your eyes glued for the release of their upcoming full length album on Jade Tree.
