Here is the table of contents from the VISUAL ISSUE:

COVER STORY: When RJD2 (above) is not traveling around the world, he’s most often at his home studio or spending time with his son. We followed the music genius as he performed his errands.

COVER STORY: Moving to Philly from Scranton has helped The Menzingers (right) mature and become the band and the people they are today.

COVER STORY: Zilla Rocca grew up in South Philadelphia, in an area where hip-hop wasn’t the norm. But he fell in love with the genre.

COVER STORY: Music was his first love and Get Up initially used his street art as a way of building his brand. Then his art career took off. Now, he’s back to music and ready to drop a new album.

COVER STORY: A typical Man Man show involves multiple costume changes, celebrity impersonations and lots of wild energy. We followed the guys around during a recent show.

Music & Politics: Shinjoo Cho works for the city, trying to lure international businesses to come here. She uses the arts as a selling point.

This Place Rocks: Fergie’s Pub has become a hangout for Philly artists, largely because owner Fergie Carey likes it that way.

Music & Education: The crew from Illstyle & Peace Productions have danced around the world, showing off Philly talent and teaching people about life through movement.

Food That Rocks: Bourbon & Branch recently took over the former Northern Liberties landmark bar, Liberties. They’ve made lots of changes, including building a performance space upstairs.

Inside Voice: We challenged deputy editor Michael Bucher to photograph the guys from Man Man on a show day. How do you capture the energy of their shows? It wasn’t easy.

Publisher’s Note: We visualize music every day. That’s our job.
