Show Review & Photos: Pete International Airport @ the High Dive

Pete International Airport w/ Dirty Sidewalks & Wall of Ears @ the High Dive, 11/2/18 – Show Review & Photos by Lisa Hagen Glynn

Pete International Airport played a moody and rhythmic set at the High Dive on November 2nd. The Portland neo-psychedelic rock group includes founding member Peter Holmström (guitar, bass), also of The Dandy Warhols, along with other well-established musicians Daniel Sparks (modular synth), Jason Russo (bass, guitar), and Tara Autovino (keys, bass). Through dreamy fog and lasers, PIA closed with an impassioned rendition of “Even Happier,” from their 2017 album Safer with the Wolves.

Opening the evening were indie-rockers Dirty Sidewalks and freak-pop trio Wall of Ears, both of Seattle

Snail Mail @ the Neptune, Mon. 1/28 – Show Preview by Dagmar

Snail Mail – aka Lindsey Jordan – makes a return to Seattle tomorrow, Monday January 28th. The 19-year-old Jordan released her debut full-length album, Lush, last summer on Matador Records. Impressive! For her first album, she worked with producer Jake Aron, who, having worked with artists such as Beth Orton and Jamie Lidell, proved to be an excellent choice. You can also definitely hear Sonic Youth in the Maryland-born singer-songwriter’s sound. Snail Mail will perform as an entire band on Monday, with Choir Boy as openers.
