Attaboy Tapes will host a double feature event at Flicker. At 7 p.m., an opening reception for Philadelphia artist Angela Rio’s new exhibition of work will begin. Rio is an abstract artist and designer whose designs utilize bright colors and focus heavily on the roots of primary colors. Her balanced yet sharp geometric shapes paired with her delicate colors evoke the designs of the ‘60s, ‘70s and sometimes even the mid-‘80s. There is also a heavy feminine aura around her designs. After checking out the artwork, attendees can pay $10 to stay for the three bands that will play after the exhibition event. Jake Brower will kick off the concert portion of the night with his psychedelic pop sound followed by Cinnamon Queen, the songwriting project of Ryan Donegan of Green Thrift Grocery and Caterpillar. Finally, Dim Watts will perform its bluesy psych-folk songs with a dash of soul.
