Double Truck Rocks the Legendary Dobbs.
We put our talents to work on a daily basis making damn good ads for our clients. But every now and then, a few of us get together to work on one of our other passions. Music.
Such was the case on a recent Thursday night when our Masterminds band "DoubleTruck" tossed its cowboy hat into the ring to take part in the Philadelphia Art Directors Club's 2nd annual "Battle of the Agency Bands." Held at The Legendary Dobbs in Philadelphia, our country rock band threw down with groups from other Philly agencies for a wild night of music (and drinking).
DoubleTruckers included VP/CD Jason Brantly and Social Media Manager Drea Janssen on lead vocals, and Account Executive Jon Branca on bass and acoustic guitar. The rest of Masterminds crew was in the house as DoubleTruck rocked the crowd with tunes like Lady Antebellum's "We Owned the Night" and "Need You Now," "Satisfied" by Ashley Monroe and "Don't You Wanna Stay" by Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson. The competition was fierce, but when the dust settled and the final note was sung, only DoubleTruck was left standing. Well, maybe wobbling. There were lots of shots being passed around.
Aside from a damn good show, many of those in attendance also got their hands on limited edition DoubleTruck double koozies. Many of which found their way to ebay, selling for justifiably exorbitant prices.
Of course, the best part of the whole event was that all the proceeds went to charity. Rock on.
