Caroline Anne – This Halloween, I ventured out to Eastlake’s Lo-Fi Performance Gallery to catch one of my favorite local bands, The Gods Themselves, deliver a flawless, costumed set of their disco-funk.
Maurice Harnsberry – I’ve witnessed a lot of great performances in Seattle this year but nobody has put on a show like Anderson Paak did at CenturyLink Field back in June. MY GOODNESS!!!
Eric Tra – Los Angeles based garage-psych rock trio, L.A. Witch, returned to Seattle this month for a near sold out show at the Crocodile opening for Vancouver, B.C.’s epic psych rock band Black Mountain.
Andy Bookwalter – The tap tap tap on the window came seconds after I parked Camper Van Bookwalter on a lonely road in “uptown Port Townsend” on Friday, Aug. 23. This wasn’t surprising; the locals seemed a little uneasy about the flood of tourists descending on their blue collar, totally unpretentious, non-touristy town.
Rachel Bennett – If you scroll through the Facebook event of a sold-out show and see the comments of many people searching for tickets, it can inspire hope for the tenacity of the rock n’ roll music industry. While it sucks for the poor souls who waited too long to snag a ticket, it’s a positive indication that the band is doing well, and that they will have the money/support to tour again in the future.
