Last Week Philly Goats held an intimate listening at Manhattan Beach Recording Studio where fans and tastemakers gathered to celebrate the release of their debut project Philly Goats. It’s no secret that Philly Club dances are taking over Tik Tok, and that Philly Goat Dyce (D Sturdy), Sou, and PGS Spence aka The Philly Goats are at the forefront of this viral movement. Philly Goat Dyce formerly known as D Sturdy has had viral hits like “Walk em Like a Dog,” & “Shake Dhat,” and has most recently partnered with his brother Sou and childhood friend PGS Spence to show the world the best of what Philly has to offer. What started out as a fun way to spend time together and have fun on Tik Tok helped the Philly Goats create a platform for themselves as the faces of the Philly Club movement. Philly Goats debut tape has already had viral hits like “Buckle Up” which has surpassed over 3.5 millions Spotify streams and “Get Off The Wall” which has accumulated over 5.6 million streams on Spotify alone. While at the listening we were able to catch up with Philly Goats to discuss their debut tape, chemistry working together and the power of social media.
