ROB SEZ: Philip B. Price (above photo, at left) is a highly talented musician from New England who fronted or played in various bands over the years before settling on Winterpills — a favorite at my house. This show (shared by drummer Rich Dart) marked the 1-year anniversary of the power pop / Brit Invasion-inspired Maggies. Fittingly, there's a celebratory spirit in the performance. All of Philip Price's many solo recordings were released earlier this month. Check out this archival project via Bandcamp or PledgeMusic. Read a great interview with Philip Price by Mick at his Art Into Dust site.

  2. dartman71 is not the person who filmed it. He's the person playing the drums! None other than Rich Dart, current drummer for the Monkees amongst other things. He was the original drummer in the band.
