Andy Bookwalter – When I was a kid, Pioneer Square seemed like a magical grownup party wonderland. There were bars on every corner and a joint cover, so for a few bucks you could hang out in any of the 1000 clubs… every single one of them featuring live music from Jr. Cadillac. Every once in a while, we’d drive in from the sticks so my parents could look at art or something, and, after the sun went down, the whole area that hosted the 2017 Upstream! Music Festival sparkled with what I now know was 100 percent hobo pee.

Nick Anderson – I’m leaning against a tree that must have been old when my father first ventured into Occidental Park. A pretty girl bought me a beer and told me she doesn’t know what to expect; it’s her first day working at the Comedy Underground and while she’s looking forward to the money, she has no idea what the crowd is going to be like. She’s cautiously optimistic, which seems to be the prevailing mood.

Travis Trautt – I got to shoot Cherry Glazerr last year during the Desert Daze music festival in Joshua Tree, Calif. and liked what I heard, so I was excited to check them out again when they came through Seattle last month.

Stephanie Oster – Swedish duo The Radio Dept. recently stopped by Seattle club Neumos, touring on their politically-charged fourth album, Running Out Of Love. The group put on a subtle, lovely performance that included new single “Swedish Guns,” a haunting takedown of the Swedish arms industry.
