On August 8th,Heartworm Press will be presenting a night that showcases music and spoken pieces from a group of artists connected to the Philadelphia-based indie press at Santos Party House. The lineup in pretty impressive to say the least, and includes a live set by Cold Cave, whose upcoming record, Love Comes Close, will end up being on a few “best of” lists at the end of 2009. Speaking (among others) will be underground noise legend Gensis P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle/Psychic TV), Kid Congo Powers (Gun Club, Cramps, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds), Jamie Stewart (Xiu Xiu), and our pal Chris Leo.

Earlier in the year, I interviewed Heartworm co-owner, Wes Eisold (also in Cold Cave). You can read that interview here.
