Philadelphia's post modernist/glam-rock band 'Persona' has released their debut LP, 'Hard-Work for Hang-ups' One of Philly's Best CDs of 2005 (according to Philadelphia's City Paper) 'Persona, Hard-Work for Hang-Ups (self-released): Histrionic synth-oscillating glam pop with lyrics as theatrical as the music. ' The group has performed in many Philadelphia and New York venues, and their energetic live show continues to win audiences over the kind of swagger only they can provide... While their style has been influenced by such rock n roll luminaries as Elvis Costello, David Bowie, T-Rex and Shudder To Think, Persona's music defies any real category. Their sound is adrenaline-fueled and breathtakingly original indie-rock sure to catch the ears of even the most discerning music fans. Persona has no desire to reinvent a genre of music or rehash a given decade, they just want to make the gals swoon and the boys fume.
