Poor Young Things is a power-charged rock band with hooks to spare from the Great White North. They venture down to our part of the world Wednesday night at World Café Live in Philadelphia.

This morning I spoke with lead singer Matt Fratpietro about life in a van, his summer on The Warped Tour, and why he’ll never write a Country Pop song.

Check out our conversation, as well as their latest  album “The Head. The Heart. The End” below.
