Somehow Sofar Sounds : Philadelphia is hitting their 4th Anniversary. The now world-wide phenomenon was a few shy of twenty cities world-wide when Philadelphia joined the ranks. These days, the shows are all over the globe and it seems like there are just shy of twenty dates in NYC alone each month. It all started in London, back in 2009, and slowly spread during the next two years to New York, Paris, DC, Los Angeles, Pune India, Houston, Brighton, Seattle, New Dehli, Sydney, Madrid, Berlin, Toronto, Dallas-Forth Worth, and Glasgow before hitting the City of Brotherly Love.
During the next 10 days I'm going to look back at four years of Sofar Sounds: Philadelphia trying to give my version of the best videos. Please comment and share what were your favorites.
14. The Lawsuits - You Won't Love Me If You Don't
Sofar Sounds shows are typically stripped down to fit the room. For this living room / office, it was a perfect fit. "You Won't Love Me If You Don't" had always been a show highlight for B, but it absolutely shined in this environment, as Vanessa Winters wowed the crowd.

13. Brian Dale Allen Strouse - Trying to Forget You
Without big speakers or other trappings of typical venues, it's easy to feel at home. In this old Candy Factory, there was lots of friendly chatter before the show among the guests catching up with each other. That warm feeling was accentuated during this December 2014 show, when not only were some familiar fans in attendance, but local favorite and Sofar alum Brian Dale Allen Strouse (see Lawsuits above) was on the bill for this holiday show.
