NOT BURLESQUE: Columbia City Theater is a really great room to watch singer-songwriters do their thing. Tonight, the room will host a CD release party for the exquisitely talented Shenandoah Davis, featuring special guest Molly Rose, and others. Grab a drink and kick back in the old Vaudeville theater for a night of introspective, arty songwriting.
Can't Miss It: Thursday
Kym Tuvim Talks to Seattlest About Her New CD
We first caught Kym Tuvim opening for Tish Hinojosa at the Tractor a couple of years ago, and were so spellbound with her soulful observational songs that we tucked her name away in our memory and vowed to pay more attention to her career. Since then, of course, she's been locked up in a studio working on a follow-up record to her 2003 release On the Mend.
Get Out Tonight: The Purrs CD Release Party @ the Sunset Tavern
, dropped a couple weeks ago, and we've been listening to it steadily since.
Aural Pleasures
After kicking our collective asses for four consecutive days, the heat is finally backing down. So pull yourself together. Go outside again -- especially to Capitol Hill this weekend.
Kuma Fast Approaching
It's too late for us to tell you about the drawing at Three Imaginary Girls for Kuma tickets. We understand that you're mad and we accept that anger. You missed the deadline for entry, and to a certain way of thinking, Seattlest is responsible. We know this is a wound that will never heal, but maybe we can alleviate some of the pain: Tickets are still available to Kuma's CD release party at Chop Suey on Friday. FCS North are opening and are also very very good and Sushirobo and The Atomic Bombshells Burlesque will be performing as well.
