Graham Isaac – To keep complete and utter track of Robert Pollard’s rock and roll output (without the help of a spreadsheet or multiple open windows) is a bit of a Quixotic task; the man has remained prolific for over twenty years under multiple headings.
Matt Ashworth – One thing we forgot to do when we were planning #NadaFest 2016 is check the schedule for popular local NFL football team the Seattle Seahawks, who were playing division rivals the Arizona Cardinals when the first three bands played on Sunday, Oct. 23.
#41for2016 band Visceral Candy stopped by The Battlefield periodically throughout the year with Tim Stiles. Local recording artist and producer Jay Battle (QREEPZ, Dead Rich, Gran Rapids) takes a leap in producing live instrumentation, which is what gives the first track “Clown Shoes” a groovy Soul Coughing/Why? feel.
Jon Rooney – In early September, far from the throngs at Bumbershoot, the Sunset Tavern hosted a show for two of Seattle’s most under-appreciated musical institutions: Levi Fuller’s Ball of Wax Quarterly and Sam Russell and the Harborrats.
