Seattlest is in Austinist territory for the next few days, experiencing the glorious clusterfuck known as South by Southwest. After debating coming down for the techier Interactive segment, we narrowed our itinerary to just the music portion of this huge annual media-centric event. There's no Seattle parallel to this, so we'll be sharing our thoughts on the music, the scene, and of course the food we're experiencing. Not to worry, we'll try to keep things on the brief side.

Tonight's bill at Chop Suey has not one, but two bands of interest. Taking the middle slot (after openers Resplandor) is Bell, the Olga Bell-fronted Brooklyn band that's gotten a ton of great press off the strength of last year's Bell EP. Once you get past the Björk comparisons, you can't help but be impressed by how powerful Olga Bell's voice is, both literally and figuratively.
