Greg Gonzalez of Cigarettes After Sex

Right above, you’ll see Greg Gonzalez of Cigarettes After Sex. He wrote the New York-based band’s entire debut album, Cigarettes After Sex! That’s impressive. If you think you don’t know this band, think again: If you watch Killing Eve or The Handmaid’s Tale, you’ve heard them in episodes of both shows. Next month, Cigarettes After Sex play a number of shows in Asia, including South Korea and Taiwan.

The Harp Twins – Camille and Kennerly Kitt – played at the Ballard Homestead during a stop on their North American tour. The classically trained identical twins are on the road in support of their most recent release, Harp Attack 3. Their performance was comprised of originally arranged classic rock and metal songs (“Hotel California,” “Dream On,” “Don’t Fear The Reaper,” “Stairway To Heaven”) and also included several of their own songs with vocals. Adding to their beautiful performance, they gave a witty intro to each song and explained the many features of their acoustic and electric harps. You could see it coming after their last song in the 2+ hour show … a thoroughly deserved standing ovation.

Jean-Michel Jarre

One of France’s most successful music artists, Jean-Michel Jarre, headlined the Paramount in April. When we say successful, he’s actually an Officier de la Légion d’Honneur. He’s even got an asteroid named after him. The spring Seattle date was part of a handful of North American shows – extremely fortunate that we got him here. Unless we’re mistaken, he rarely visits the States. Huge thank you to Lisa Hagen Glynn for getting these wonderful shots of Jarre, including the magical laser harp.
