Wednesday, April 30th - Robyn with the Broadzilla DJs

Konichiwa Bitches!! I'm not just saying that to be funny, it's actually the name of Robyn's label and one of her most entertaining singles. Check out the video here. Who is Robyn you ask? Well remember that 90's mainstream pop hit "Show Me Love"? Yeah that's her, but her sound has evolved. Robyn has gone from mainstream pop to Swedish, indie-pop sweetheart. Her songs are entertaining and interesting, as well as totally danceable. It's pop with a little more attitude and a lot more creativity.

Leaving her 90's mainstream success in the U.S., she's coming back 10 years later on her own terms. Her latest album drops Tuesday, April 29th - the day before her Philadelphia show. Robyn's self-titled album has already been called this year's best pop album! She's this year's Annie, according to critics and the blogosphere which has risen her to indie fame. The Philadelphia Inquirer says Robyn's first album off her own record label is "an album full of terse, electro-flavored dance pop that recalls early Madonna, Norway's Annie, Missy Elliott and even the best of pre-train-wreck Britney." Stylus Magazine gave the album an A- and said, "If there's one European pop star who deserves worldwide success the most, it has to be Robyn." With the Broadzilla DJs opening the night, the Fillmore @ the TLA is sure to be a dance party on Wednesday, April 30th.
