*Updated 4/7* Upcoming Seattle Shows



Hey all. There are relatively few shows this week, but a bunch of solid ones nonetheless. Gothic/post-punk icon Nick Cave is coming to the Paramount with his Bad Seeds, space-rock guru Spiritualized will be at the Neptune, and singer/songwriter Jessie Ware (who among other notable contributions to music, just told Big Pun's estate "Fuck Big Pun" when they started whining about samples) at the Crocodile. However, if you don't want to drop a bunch of cash on expensive STG tickets (and who can blame you?), there are still a bunch of cheap local shows to choose from. The Electric Tea Garden is hosting a night of stellar synthpop tonight (Sunday) with Philadelphia's Void Vision, New Orleans' Pressures, and a DJ set by Dr. Troy of Seattle's Medical Records. Likewise, 'Mo-wave, Seattle's queer music and arts festival, has some promising acts (with the 13th at Chop Suey being the best option in my mind), and weirdo instrumentalists the Corespondents are staging a two day party at the Josephine for the release of their new record, Land of the Low People. Have a great week!
