We’ve become instant listeners of Work Drugs, a dream pop duo from Philadelphia. They are currently supporting their 2014 release Insurgents, released on Bobby Cahn Records. Work Drugs have supported Two Door Cinema Club, Phoenix, Peter Bjorn and John, Memoryhouse, and Band of Horses. They are winners of the 2011 Beijing Film and Art Festival’s coveted Crying Monkey Award. The Key notes “Their latest, “Minor Flaw” opens with an 80s pop sound that is immediately captivating. The well-worked combination of sunny riffs and just the right amount of reverb come together perfectly alongside lyrics like “like a prayer that I used to remember or just a reason to keep me hanging on.”
