*Updated 5/12* Upcoming Seattle Shows



The Appleseed Cast’s Low Level Owl is one of my favorite records, and in just a few hours the band will take the stage at Chop Suey as they continue to support the release of their new record, Illumination Ritual. Other big national shows this week include MGMT at Showbox SODO (which is already sold out), indie-icons Yo La Tengo at Showbox at the Market, and Lightning Bolt drummer Brian Chippendale’s solo project, Black Pus, at the Black Lodge on the 15th with MTNs and the Numbs—get to this show or hang your head in shame every time someone asks you about it. If you’re into garage punk you should probably get a copy of the new record by LA’s Colleen Green, Sock It To Me (that is, if you don't have it already), and head over to Heartland to see her tomorrow night. Other shows: CTPAK’s Children of Kids and Moose Portrait are playing a show at Vermillion on the 16th—both of which are working on new material for release this summer, and Little Wings and and Heavy Hawaii are playing Cairo Seattle the following evening. Finally, Neon Sigh takes over Columbia City Theater on the 17th with performances by Tokyoidaho, Kelli Frances Corrado, and Golden Gardens!!! GG will be performing material from their new EP, Narcissus; after seeing them perform the new songs at the Sunset a couple weeks ago I’m beyond excited to see what they can do with a full stage. Have an awesome week!
