Other bands on the loose included Constant Lovers and Cave Singers. And Nikki Lane fans rejoice, Lane tours the States starting mid-October, with a date at Seattle’s Neumos on November 19th.

Artist: Clark
Song: “To Live and Die in Grantham”
Why You Want to Watch: As directed by Christopher Hewitt, this guy in the video is having too much fun, and he’s got some fancy dance moves.
Details: Electronic artist Clark visited Seattle twice in 2015. Not sure how, but I managed to miss both shows! I am sure he will return. Signed to Warp Records, Clark (AKA Chris Clark), shared Flame Rave this year.

Naturally Van Halen would play one of the Northwest’s big venues when they hit Washington State – that’s just a given. This time the rock band performed at White River Ampitheatre, giving fans the chance to enjoy some outdoor vibes. The big news in 2015 for Van Halen was the tour, which actually kicked off in July at White River, and now winds down on October 2nd in Hollywood. That’s a huge tour! The other news is all the cool remasters of a large number of VH albums.

Seattle’s Motopony played a big, local and headlining show at the Showbox this summer. 2015 year has been huge for them with the release of Welcome You, a spot at Bumbershoot, and now a bunch of October dates in New York. Well done! Big Harp (ooh, they come back to Seattle on November 13th) and the Owl Parliament were also on the bill.
