Seattle Subsonic - April, 2009
Black Joe Lewis @ Tractor
| Friday, May 22, 2009 | ||
| 9:00 pm |
Continuing the trend of taking a cool vintage style and laying in a heavy dose of bad assery, Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears have created something straight from a James Brown wet dream. Their debut album, “Tell ‘Em What Your Name Is”, released on March 17th, is a full-tilt groove-laden boogie down production of old vs new including funky originals and some obscure blues covers. They are currently on a nationwide tour that ends in a series of Pac NW shows. One here in Seattle on May 22 at the Tractor, one in Vancouver BC, and one at the Wild Buffalo in B-HAm in the 24th. For a full taste of the album check their Myspace. For a dose of the live isht check the vid below! Good Gawd Aaawmighty!

Sleepy Eyes of Death @ Chop Suey

| 9:00 pm |
Cloaked with a thick veil of smoke, Sleepy Eyes of Death deliver a tidal wave of keyboards and heavily distorted guitar, lead by disco-beat drums. Some live, some mechanized. It’s the complete aural and visual attack.
.
Come early to catch the primal precussions and bass laiden rhythms of Constant Lovers.

3rd Annual Stranger Gong Show @ Chop Suey
| Friday, May 8, 2009 | ||
| 9:00 pm |
More and more when I hear of a totally off-the-wall or original idea for a show it tends to be happening at Chop Suey. Last month local bands gathered there to play their renditions of Disney songs. Seriously Aqueduct sings Disney.. what can top that. This month, the Stranger’s Gong Show returns to the 
stage for an evening ranging from the impressive to the bizarre to the downright offensive.
.
Now, it’s one thing to watch, and another to fully participate. The Stranger is looking for entertaining and unique acts. Like every year, each act will have a minimum of 45 seconds and a maximum of four minutes to perform and try not to get gonged by our panel of judges. C’mon impress us!
