Beatweek Magazine issue #66: Silversun Pickups, free App Store apps, Dropkick Murphys, new iPhone cases, Social Code, Daphne Willis and more

It says something about the unusual path Silversun Pickups have taken to stardom that they got nominated for the “best new artist” Grammy three years after they first got popular. Now that Swoon has propelled them to even greater heights, bassist Nikki Monninger gives us a look inside the band’s world. We also talk with Boston’s Dropkick Murphys, Chicago’s Daphne Willis, and Canadian rockers Social Code.

On the tech side we look at thirteen App Store apps (all of them free!) along with new iPhone earbuds and seven new iPhone cases and shields.

Thank you to those of you who’ve been with us going back to 2004, and those who’ve found us along the way. In between issues, keep an eye on beatweek.com for new interviews and reviews published daily. And yes, Alan Jackson will grace the cover of Beatweek’s next issue.
