Gavin Rossdale of Bush
Details: English rock quartet Bush returned to Seattle in May 2017. This show was a rescheduled date, and it’s great they were able to make it back! New stuff is happening for the band, including the May release of Black and White Rainbows. For this album, they worked with producer Bob Rock for the second time (he produced 2011’s The Sea of Memories). Bush has headlining shows lined up in Europe this fall.

Atmosphere
Details: Minneapolis’ Atmosphere (that is, rapper Slug and DJ Ant) played Showbox SoDo in September 2016. Bringing along Rhymesayers (motto: Don’t Sweat the Techniques) label mates Brother Ali and deM atlaS, Atmosphere celebrated album eight, Fishing Blues. Keep an eye on their Facebook, as it appears the duo has an announcement to make on June 28th, with a teaser of bicycle wheels and that date flashing on their page. . . hmmmm. . . Enjoy photos by Casey Brevig, which are Memory Lane Series, Part 8.

SEE played an acoustic solo set at El Corazon last week in support of her debut EP Ties. This was the last stop on her tour with Nina Diaz. The multi-instrument singer-songwriter drew from material on her record, as well as several new songs and covers. SEE took a few minutes after her set for some portraits.

Details: Kongos, South African- born brothers Johnny Kongos, Dylan Kongos, Daniel Kongos and Jesse Kongos, headlined the Showbox in Seattle on May 14, 2017. The truly international band – they’re Greek and Mexican – who have lived in London, South Africa and America, Kongos released their third album, Egomaniac, last year. We’re already hungry for more. They play a distinctive mix of rock and kwaito, and continually impress. And thank you, Kongos, for creating a really cool PINK vinyl of Egomaniac. Much love.
