Jesse Sykes And The Sweet Hereafter is the result of the enduring musical alchemy between singer-songwriter Jesse Sykes and guitarist Phil Wandscher, which began in Seattle in 2001. Blending folk, blues, orchestral elements and various psychedelic stylings, their sound culminates in what the New York Times described as “spellbound music, rapt in fatalism and sorrow.”&nbsp;Having just released their 5th record, “Forever, I’ve Been Being Born”, on Southern Lord and Ideologic Organ (Europe) Sykes says;&nbsp;“This new album is our attempt at creating elegant folk and sometimes ragged, cosmic heart&nbsp;rendered songs, full of eulogies and laments. It’s chock full with themes of emotional dislocation, magical thinking, death and transformation. It took us ten years to complete this record—as life was challenging in that decade —so these two nights will truly be a celebration, a release in the truest sense of the word— because honestly I felt much of the time that it might never get finished —and at times, that weight felt unbearable.”These two shows also celebrate the physical CD being available. (We&nbsp;will have both vinyl and cds at these shows!)*Appearing as the intimate DUO version, we may also have a special guest or two

With lyrics covering everything from vigilante cryptids to bad trips in abandoned trailers, Adira Sharkey’s songwriting sets her apart in the Americana scene. Her low-slung voice lends itself perfectly to her raw, unfiltered storytelling, where her songs take audiences to the darker side of love, longing, and life’s misadventures. Like any unusual art, her voice isn’t for everyone, even inspiring one YouTube commenter to note “weird voice.” Still others are won over by Adira’s low rasp: “[she’s] like if Cher was country”, explained PNW folk pop favorite Izzy Burns. Often joined by an upright bass player, her rhythmic vocal arrangements and percussive finger picking is complemented with traditional roots music accompaniment, delivering a punchy alt-country sound. She’s honed a bluesy folk feel from years of playing shows up and down the west coast, and has recently had the distinct honor of opening for Grammy nominated artist Kelsey Waldon at Seattle’s Sunset Tavern. Her forthcoming debut album evokes a genre melting blend of Tom Waits and Patsy Cline, with just a pinch of Ani DiFranco.

Always a real world venture, they live in a 2003 Toyota Highlander and tour the DIY circuit, eating gas station hot dogs, exploring their craft and pursuing the effervescent mystery of music itself! Nick Delffs has been a beloved staple of Pacific Northwest music since emerging with his Portland-based band The Shaky Hands in the mid-2000s.

As the title suggests, it’s an album about opening oneself up to change, refusing the calcification that comes with age, and opting for wholesale transformation instead.

Something inside you has been set loose.&nbsp; We have veered off of the&nbsp;path, into the unknown and there&nbsp;is&nbsp;no one who can stop it.&nbsp; Then you realize, you gave them the keys. Time, space, and the swirling of microscopic universes that make up all matter, mean nothing when the veil&nbsp;is&nbsp;lifted and you hear the clang of Knuckles the guitar and the holy “whooas” of the man himself… Sam Chase.&nbsp; You lean back, kick your feet up and sing along.Kelsey Sprague Band weaves songs that feel like love letters—tender, nostalgic, and achingly human.

CHARMING DISASTER is a Brooklyn-based goth folk duo whose darkly whimsical sound world blends macabre humor, literary storytelling, and theatrical flair. Formed in 2012 by singer songwriters Ellia Bisker and Jeff Morris, the pair creates tightly woven duets that explore the shadowy borderlands between myth and science, magic and mortality, folklore and the occult. Their music draws inspiration from the murder ballad traditions of Americana, the gothic sensibilities of Edward Gorey and Tim Burton and the intimate drama of cabaret performance. Across seven full length albums, Charming Disaster has developed a signature style that is both playfully sinister and emotionally resonant. Their songs unfold like miniature stories—populated by witches, ghosts, detectives, monsters, and doomed lovers—each delivered with wry wit, intricate harmonies, and a flair for the theatrical. They have shared stages with genre bending acts including Voltaire, Rasputina, and The Dresden Dolls, earning praise for their ability to make the macabre feel mischievous, charming, and unexpectedly fun. Whatever you think is about to happen when MISTER INK emerges holding some weird vaguely recognizable instrument you are probably right and wrong all the same. There will be stories. There will be howling and hollering. There will be oddly captivating rhythms seducing you into his world. A subterranean labyrinth of folk tales, dirty limericks, and salacious magic rooted in the ancient heartbeat of humanity. Somewhere in the mud where myth crashes into meat there is Mister Ink asking you for just a little more time. Mister Ink, the shouting songwriting engine for the enigmatic Peculiar Pretzelmen, strips down the apocalyptic atmosphere to a more negotiable bit of bombast in solo form. The odd instrumentation and primal grooves remain, held together by songs that might be ancient or maybe hastily composed on the way to the stage. Either way, a captivating bit of chaos is sure to occur, tattooing its charms on the dark corners of audiences wherever he appears. THE BLACK MARIAH THEATER have been casting hexes with their sultry-garage rock for years; but it's the twin sisters' infectious energy and angsty-cool attitude during live shows that draw listeners from all over. Combining tantalizing melodies with catchy choruses, along with the band's lyrical storytelling, The Black Mariah Theater will have you entranced from the first note.

Great Comet, the Americana-tinged indie rock project of songwriter Aaron New, has always been a study in motion, but with the release of the sonically expansive second album, Stranger Land, that motion has found a new direction—a deliberate journey through the spaces between. The album is a powerful document of life on the road, of experiencing lasting love alongside devastating loss, and finding a home in the hushed moments of a world seen through a van window. Though the performance pushes into electrifying new territory, the project remains grounded in New’s Appalachian roots, blending a reverence for classic storytelling with a modern indie edge. Stranger Land is more than an album; it’s the title of an ongoing story, capturing a pivotal moment for a project defined by change and proving that for Great Comet, the destination is still unknown, but the path forward has never been more compelling. Seattle-based Old Coast melds a spirited mix of whisky-drinking desert songs with driving rhythms and blue collar harmonies to create a unique brand of Pacific Northwest Americana.

True to his Seattle-based surroundings, the songs he performs as Armour are verdant and waterlogged, and they move with dark clouds permanently affixed above them. Moura’s featherweight vocals and labyrinthine guitar structures may at first recall the classic folk of Nick Drake, and the pieces are similarly plaintive - acoustic guitar, even-keeled vocals, and an unflinching honesty - but the songs themselves are complex coils of emotion, all of them tightened under the repressive pressure of modern-day living.

Seattle / Boston singer songwriter Chloe Bilstad has been writing songs in a little book since she was young. She finds inspiration in small things, like thunderstorms, and paper snowflakes, and world-defining love. With elements of Americana and Folk Pop, she has crafted her own sound of rhythm and heartache. As long as she can remember, Delphine Kublin has been singing - very quietly to herself at night under her blanket. One day she decided to sing out loud. She’s been performing around Seattle ever since and is excited to share some of her new songs along with some covers of the singer-songwriters who inspire her.

Made up of members of Deep Sea Diver, Meat Hair is an improv band who lives dangerously and may or may not have complicated relationships with their fathers. The name Packaging may connote a cynical mindset about the music industry, but the music that duo Daniel Lyon (Spirit Award) and Daniel “Connor” Birch (Flaural) make is far from cynical. Instead, it’s a passionate merging of elements from their distinct voices: krautrock chug, psychedelic swirl, electronic grandeur, and tuneful accessibility, with a pinch of bristling self-awareness sprinkled on top. Their debut album, Packaging, is a suite of emotionally resonant songs about disconnection, ennui, and restless movement. Featuring several musical contributors, including Luke Temple (Here We Go Magic), Ash Reiter (Sugar Candy Mountain), James Barone (Beach House), and Andy Rauworth (Gauntlet Hair). The album, like actual packaging, is a tactile experience. From the pulse-pounding rush of “Running Through The Airport” and “In My Pocket” to the woozy melancholia of “Didn’t Wanna Stay” and the quietly devastating “On Holiday,” Lyon and Birch combine their talents in ways that push each other to new emotive heights.

Jesse Blake Rundle writes sad boy songs—but he’s not actually sad, most of the time. From Boise, Idaho, he makes intricate chamber folk that bridges intimacy and grandeur, for fans of Grizzly Bear, Adrianne Lenker, and the quieter corners of indie rock. His work orbits longing and change, shaped by leaving religion, embracing his sexuality, and finding joy in sobriety. The latest album — "WAIT, SKY" — has been getting some praise: “a rare album: demanding yet accessible, cerebral yet visceral. He reminds us that music, when not just consumed but inhabited, can become a refuge for those seeking understanding—others, the world, themselves.” — Extra VA French

Bird Streets, the alter-ego and musical brainchild of Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist John Brodeur, emerged in 2018 – from the same NPR Slingshot class as Phoebe Bridgers and The Beths – with a fully realized self-titled album. The project’s charming brand of Americana tinged indie rock and power-pop was showcased even further via the release of recent stand-alone singles (“On The Promenade” and a cover of XTC’s “Dear God”), the Ghost Notes EP and 2022’s full length sophomore release Lagoon, which found Brodeur enlisting production by Pat Sansone (Wilco) and Michael Lockwood (Fiona Apple), plus guest appearances from Ed Harcourt, Aimee Mann, John Davis (Superdrag), and Jody Stephens (Big Star). The Escape Artist, out October 17, reteams Brodeur with producer Jason Falkner (Daniel Johnston) for a paranoid guitar-pop record that runs the gamut from claustrophobic folk to punk-rock freakout.

Little Wins is the bedroom pop-turned-heartland rock solo project of producer and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Vait. When Vait lost his mother to cancer, he channeled his grief into hand-building a home studio. He started writing for the first time in years-the songs revealing themselves as cinematic escapes, drawing influence from artists like Waxahatchee, Kacey Musgraves, S.G.Goodman, and Bon Iver. He wrote the final songs that would comprise his debut album while on a trip to Hart Mountain, Oregon with his father, on the one-year anniversary of his mom's passing.Vait began recording in the studio he built.He played nearly every instrument and mixed the collection of songs himself. As he approached the finish line, Vait faltered. A fear took hold: that releasing such a vulnerable work-so deeply imbued with loss—would invite the soft tide of change to wash away the version of himself that grief had made familiar. A year passed before Vait eventually surrendered and entered the final stage of grief, as the moon enters its final phase: the waning crescent. It was in that dusk-lit moment of acceptance that the album took its final shape, and he was able to let go.Vait released his debut full-length album, Restless Medium, Quiet Moon, in September2025. The work speaks to an earnest longing for balance, the urgent need for flight, and the curious, courageous spirit in us all. The urge to cry and be held. To reach desperately for connection. To light a fire in one's self and perhaps in the hearts of others-and to uncover a deeper understanding of grief and loneliness and the joy and beauty that can spring from both.

Join The Love Markets for a special All Saints’ Night show on Halloween weekend, featuring&nbsp; undertaker’s waltzes, teen-vampire tangos, werewolf trombone and more!&nbsp;The Love Markets are a Weimar Berlin-inspired cabaret rock band who make modern songs of love and revolution. With deep roots in Seattle’s arts scene, these “ruffle-clad ruffians” have spent the last 15 years bringing their subversive wit, rollicking grooves, and intoxicating soul to city stages and crafting new critically acclaimed music. The band’s unique sound comes courtesy of singer-songwriter Angie Louise’s exuberant vocals and adventurous keys; Robertson Witmer’s shape-shifting accordion; David Marriott Jr.’s trombone wizardry; Dave Pascal’s funky bass; and Chris Monroe’s sinuous drums. &nbsp;The Love Markets’ debut album World of Your Dreams lured fans down red-lit alleys with its potent brew of political bite and gleeful escapism. Follow-up album Beauty Factory thumbed its nose at the machine and found heroines in unlikely places. In June 2025, the Love Markets celebrated the release of their third record Ship of Light, a vessel carrying luminous songs about risk, hope, longing, misadventure, monsters stomping things, and billionaires in space.&nbsp;"Irresistible... Intoxicating... A deliciously dark carnival." - Seattle Magazine "Ruffle-clad ruffians...

Silver Mantis is a 50 minute electro-acoustic presentation, performed with software and sampling, theremin and prepared piano.&nbsp;It is an immersive multi channel composition which allows for an elastic performance.After my recent densely structured work with chamber ensembles, the inspiration behind Silver Mantis was to create a work incorporating live re-composition and improvisation into its structure, one which could expand and contract fluidly with flow and spontanaeity from pre-ordained building blocks of sound. &nbsp;Incorporating musique concrète and electronic sound along with live instrumentation, the composition is dynamic, cinematic and diverse with stylistic left-turns, creating a tension between time and anxiety.&nbsp;I perform it with a projection created exclusively for the project by acclaimed Swedish visual artist Sten Backman.Silver Mantis has been performed at Roulette Intermedia in NYC, Cafe Oto in London, 2220 in Los Angeles, Colchester Arts Center UK, Melbourne Recital Center, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Timacua Arts Foundation in Orlando, Elastic Arts in Chicago and elsewhere.JG Thirlwell is a composer/producer/performer based in Brooklyn, NY.

If there is a common thread to his varied musical styles, it is a dramatic intensity and an evocative, cinematic quality. Thirlwell has also featured as producer, remixer, collaborator or arranger for a wide variety of artists including Karen O, Noveller, Zola Jesus, Helm, Mivos Quartet, Melvins, Swans, Nine Inch Nails, Lydia Lunch, Coil, Z’s, The The, Simon Hanes, Tony Oursler, Nick Cave and many more.&nbsp;JG has completed commissions for Kronos Quartet, Bang On A Can, Alarm Will Sound, String Orchestra of Brooklyn, Alterity Chamber Orchestra, Experiments in Opera, Zephyr Quartet, Great Learning Orchestra, Dither, Jeffrey Zeigler, William Basinski and more.

Goodmorning Valentine is the moniker for the singer songwriter Joseph Allen Beltram. For the last 20 years, Joseph has been working away on his albums and putting himself on the road, traveling all over the United States both as a solo artist and with friends, playing places of some notoriety as well as dives you've never heard of, making friends and gathering a small audience as he goes. Joseph is “the real deal,” a tireless songwriter whose determined daily routine has delivered him hundreds of songs. For the last few years, Joseph Allen Beltram has fully embraced this itinerant life, waving farewell to old haunts from the window of a conversion van, chasing a permanent state of motion. His latest trip has taken him all over the country, recording with old friends, writing new tunes, and playing old favorites for those growing audiences. In 2024 Suicide Squeeze released a collabortive effort between Six Parts Seven and Goodmorning Valentine. ‘Kissing Distance’.

“On a hot summer day in August I went into Zona Park studios outside Lockhart, TX with Bob Hoffnar on pedal steel and Dennis O’Donnell on upright bass and recorded the five songs that would become the King of Nothin’ e.p.&nbsp;All very much songs from the road. The title track King of Nothin’ and Vacancy Sign were written the same strange night in a nowhere motel room in Arkansas. Four Roses was written while crashing at a friends’ house in Nashville.&nbsp;What can’t be Found was written after a heartbreak and leaving town like in an old western movie.

At the Rabbit Box Theatre in Pike Place Market, the air is thick with music, conversation, and the glow of low light on polished wood. People lean in over plates, laughter rising, glasses clinking. In the corner, a woman dines alone, a small island in the tide of sound. Then the phone rings. What starts as an ordinary call becomes something else- fractured, urgent, and too intimate for this room, yet unfolding right here before you. You catch fragments between the piano's chords, the low thrum of voices, the scrape of silverware. Her gaze never finds yours, but you feel as though you’ve stumbled into a moment you were never meant to witness. Vox: The Echo in the Crowd turns the audience into quiet eavesdroppers, pressing close to the invisible line between performance and intrusion. In this world, the crowd’s easy warmth becomes a backdrop for one woman’s unraveling, where private pain swells in the most public of spaces.

What Rob Moura hopes you hear when you press play on his music is a familiar language rendered alien. True to his Seattle-based surroundings, the songs he performs as Armour are verdant and waterlogged, and they move with dark clouds permanently affixed above them. With his featherweight vocals and labyrinthine guitar structures, Moura’s music may at first recall the classic folk of Nick Drake. His songs dip just as deep into melancholy waters, and they look around as much as they do inward. But Moura’s characters are victims of the present era, and so they strive to disengage from the uncomfortable, inconvenient facets of their humanity: the thrum of heartache, the sting of heartbreak, the dull pang of regret, the weight of familial trauma, and the chains of faith.Connor Cash Colbert is a songwriter and poet living on the unceded, traditional lands of the Duwamish people past and present in Seattle. He's a member of the alt-folk band False Hemlock, an editorial assistant at Poetry Northwest, and Hannah's dad.In emerging artist sister swimmer’s new EP, “The Horizon Line Swallowed Us Whole”, the boundary between dream and memory fizzles and sputters, dissolves into a hum of static. In the inevitable natural disaster of experience—did you forget your body, again? Do we trust the vessel that carries us forward? Is it really love or did you just want to feel safe? Project creator Britt Amborn’s voice wavers and waxes poetic within these questions, using music as a salve to turn emotional injury into relational fortitude, as a tool to move forward from her own obsessions with worry and place and longing and what stories the body claims for keeps. Sister Swimmer’s sonic landscape blends elements of indie rock and dream pop, venturing into darkly-lit territories of folktronica and shoegaze. At the heart of the project lies a fierce commitment to collaboration, where fellow Seattle-based artists each contribute a force of their own. Seattle producer and artist, Nicholas Ward of french tears &amp; Hey Marseilles, brings his esteemed creative direction to the narrative with fuzzy guitars, captivating builds, and moody compositions that stir electricity in with inherent melancholy. In “Knuckles” and “Monster Song”, artist Jeremiah Moon’s cello propels the story forward, swinging the pendulum of emotionality between a anxious tightening of anticipation in the listeners’ chest, to a sentimental carrying that feels like a long exhale, a necessary release. Drummer Colin Richey lends a dynamic urgency to “No : Body”, along with the warmth and fiery grit of Austen Case on background vocals. Mike Vernon Davis’ engineering and mixing expertise adds a gravitational pull with textured, analog-inspired force. A testament to the EP’s accomplishment—Britt was selected by Sonic Guild to collaborate with local industry leaders on crafting an impactful community debut. “The Horizon Line Swallowed Us Whole” is a distorted investigation into what detaches self from story, in the dark mythologies we construct around memory and our lived-in experiences. In between the pull of sister swimmer's present-minded romanticism and nostalgia-drenched escapism—a glowing, beckoning horizon (a longing to be present to the body and tender with its history) is an ever-shifting daydream, a worthy pursuit.

Chicago Folk / Americana singer / songwriter, Steve Dawson, has been called “one of the most underrated songwriters in American music,” who writes, “graceful, poetic songs akin to a volume of great short stories in their precise, exacting wordplay and soulful heartache.” Dawson has released six albums with his long-time band, Dolly Varden, and six solo albums, including 2021’s “At The Bottom Of A Canyon In The Branches Of A Tree,” and 2024’s, “Ghosts,” both on Pravda Records. Originally from San Diego, California, he spent his teen years in Hailey, Idaho, where he learned guitar and started writing songs. After a few years at the Berklee School of Music in Boston, Dawson moved to Chicago and formed the band, Stump The Host, with his future wife, artist and singer, Diane Christiansen. Dawson also teaches songwriting at the legendary Old Town School of Folk Music and co-wrote a book on songwriting and the creative process with Mark Caro called, “Take It To The Bridge: Unlocking The Great Songs Inside You.” Avant-garde classical composer? Freak-folk singer-songwriter? Postmodern jazz interloper? Recently eschewing electronic instruments for a banjo, Eaton’s music is colored by her eclectic musical expertise, spanning the Renaissance lute, 20th century post-tonal harmony, American minimalism and frontier songs of the American west. Her “disconcertingly lovely” (Seattle Weekly) compositions are “unconfined by genres and musical classifications” (V13 Media), combining her “glass-like voice” (Earshot Jazz) with folk roots and avant-garde chamber music.

An evening of folk Americana on 6 &amp; 12-string guitar concerning heroes and hope, so that absolutely everyone, of every identity and history, can know that they are not alone but have a verse in the shouted poetry of dawn.A fine finger-style guitarist with a precise baritone, Kray Van Kirk has a Ph.D. from the University of Alaska, but he set science aside to write songs, tell stories and summon heroes. "We are driven by myth and the seasons of the heart," he says, "and the stories are all true. There is a dark cave inside each of us, and monsters of all kinds lurk there, all the more lethal for being hidden. The quest is to journey inside, render the monsters powerless, find whatever it is that burns at the core of your soul and bring it back into the light. In a world divided it is critical to write songs and tell stories that show absolutely everyone they get to be the hero. Nobody is left behind." When he reached Scotland and the Fringe Festival, the Daily Fringe Review wrote ìThe evening's act was Kray Van Kirk, whose 12-string guitar and soaring vocals were spellbinding; the Alaskan singer-songwriter, in his Edinburgh debut, was not the reason I arrived early, but was certainly why I stayed late." Of this charming, Quixotic and eclectic performer, the Borderline Folk Club in New York wrote that Van Kirk was "what every singer-songwriter should aspire to."Singer-songwriter Larry Murante has a well-earned reputation as one of the Northwests finest contemporary singer/songwriters with the accolades and dozens of regional, national, and international awards to back it up.

New Orthodox is "New american" music, not in sound but in participation. Led by New York state-based multi-instrumentalist Nicholas Merz, he invites collaborators within and beyond state lines such as Freak Heat Waves, Thor Harris, and Spencer Krug, to bring the work to life. Through a patchwork of disparate musical styles that borders on performance art, the project is focused on highlighting the human element of error, and creating as little distraction as possible around it. The band's ethos leans heavily into minimalist repetition, sonic experimentation, and lyrical insights that give way to live performances and recordings that utilize space and silence to imitate the human experience. The music is both intimate and grand, charged and claustrophobic, taking the tools of country and spinning them out of context.
