Kids in Philly is the second studio album by the band Marah, released in 2000. The songs draw from musical influences including Bruce Springsteen, Mummer string bands, Phil Spector and roots rock, while the album's lyrics are rooted in the band's Philadelphia home. Kids in Philly garnered widespread critical praise for its energetic abandon, lyrical sincerity and depth, and unabashed pilfering of numerous musical influences.[1][2]
Reviews of subsequent Marah albums would make comparisons with Kids in Philly so often that Dave Bielanko would lament it as "my old albatross" on 2010's Life is a Problem.
