On The Road: The Local Strangers
Our friends, The Local Strangers, have headed south for their first tour. We are super fortunate to count them among our friends and they even agreed to be tour photo text buddies with us a la On the Road: Steel Tigers of Death. They're having a fantastic time so far playing spots like Port Orford, OR, Hollywood and Oakland. Check back in for more photo fun next week. We may even get to see TLS and Dave Bazan brunching together!
New Music Spotlight: Sean McGrath
One benefit of being submersed in music day and night is finding new, extremely talented, musicians that hardly anyone has heard of. The immediate reaction to that is "I need to tell everyone about them!". Luckily for us, we have a platform to do that... Seattlest! One such performer that we'd like to introduce you to is Sean McGrath. He's been frequenting Conor Byrne's Sunday open mic for a couple months now and we have definitely taken notice. He is playing one of his first big shows in Seattle tonight at Columbia City Theater alongside Kevin Long and Noah Gundersen. As we mentioned yesterday, it's going to be epic so get your butts down to Columbia City. If not, regret will soon follow.

Gallery: Whalebones & Night Beats
While it was a stormy night outside last Saturday, it was hot inside at the Sunset Tavern. The heat was generated by the bodies moving to the psychedelic sounds of Whalebones and Night Beats, who were playing to a young and eager crowd who grooved to every guitar riff and drum beat that was thrown their way.
Psychedelic Rock Will Melt The Sunset On Saturday
What's the perfect topper for another glorious day of Seattle sun? An ear-smashing evening of psych rock at the Sunset Tavern, of course.
