Every time I sign up for a new music festival I create a playlist to get me excited for the shows. Timber, by the same folks that put on Doe Bay Music Festival, is made up of mostly Seattle and regional artists. I'm especially excited because it's so close to Seattle! The usual 3-4 hour trek can be exhausting and tedious and it'll be nice to attend something so close. I'll report back with tons of photos but for now, enjoy my Spotify playlist. There's still tix if anyone wants to go!
Sasquatch Poster Show
All done! This Saturday is the Sasquatch! Poster show at Vermillion in Capitol Hill, Seattle featuring local talented artists designing posters for the bands participating in the music festival. Come check it out. My featured artist is Four Color Zack. I chose him because I like his name. He's also an Art Director at Wexley School for Girls.
MSMR & Jessie Ware
Andrew and I caught MSMR and Jessie Ware at the Crocodile on Tuesday with a few friends. It was the 2nd time we had seen them and they were far better than last time.
#1 the Croc is awesome for intimate shows, we were able to get up closer even thou it was sold out. Sold out shows at the Croc can be a nightmare but the crowd was easy going, only a little bit of Bro Dancing, and everyone was excited to see an opener for once.
#2 MSMR has gained some more fans since we last saw them and they also seem more comfortable playing together. It was obvious they were having a good time.
Jessie Ware was beautiful and talented, just a little too mellow after a long work day. Note to self: don't take a spin class 30 min before a show, you will be a walking zombie!
Next show: Marina and the Diamonds, Showbox Market, May 2nd
Searching for Sugar Man
This was so great. I had heard a few of my music nerd friends rave about it. We were blown away. Beautifully told story. Amazing this could happen before the internet.
