For those of you that are interested in the music we've been going to see lately, we've had a chance to see some good stuff you might be interested in checking out:
Janelle Monae opening for Of Montreal – Great show all around. I was equally excited about both, but left with much more enthusiasm for the opener and would love to see Monae do her full set. If you don't yet know Janelle Monae, you will soon. She'll be annoyingly popular, which she completely deserves. In the meantime, I think the Galores would do well and could afford to add her to the next installment of our music festival.
Pomegranates — Really enjoying their latest album, One of Us. The crowd was sadly small, but it was fun to be two rows back from a band with some good songwriting talent. Here's some audio from their latest KEXP visit.
Dawes – Fantastic live. Mrs. Galore made a rare late night showing.
Built to Spill – If it wasn't already, it's starting to become a character flaw to not like BtS. It's true. Only complaint was that they didn't play You Were Right.
Over the Rhine — Mrs. Galore went to get her menno-folk-singer-songwriter on, so you'll have to ask her for the recap. As an aside, Poughkeepsie is a great song, but what about the name?
