Paul Broderson – Today, we’re pleased as punch to bring you the world premiere of “Contentment,” the first single and video from budding Seattle supergroup Rub. Clearly children of the MTV generation, “Contentment” is a refreshing departure from today’s abstract, overly-orchestrated mini movies that pass for music videos.
Todd Terry – What’s in a name? If your name is “Bumbershoot,” possibly a poor man’s portmanteau of umbrella and parachute and a ton of history. The storied Seattle music and arts festival recently announced the music lineup for their 50th anniversary and needless to say, the stakes are high.
Tim Basaraba – I’ve always been indifferent to Zach Braff. I’ve never seen his films Garden State (2004) or Wish I Was Here (2014), nor have I watched a single episode of Scrubs (2004-2009). I don’t have an aversion to Braff, his acting, or his directing, it’s just that some people’s work doesn’t find it’s way into my life.
Tim Basaraba – What can’t Channing Tatum do? He can act. He can dance. And, yes, the man can SING. Can he also direct a feature length motion picture? The answer is yes, but with a little help from fellow first-time-director Reid Carolin, the dude who wrote Magic Mike and Magic Mike XXL.
