Kat Edmonson @ the Triple Door

In her first visit to Seattle, Kat Edmonson performed with guitarist Steve Elliot at the Triple Door — one of the city’s classiest venues and one befitting her throwback jazz vocal stylings. As the audience dined in the dimly lit lounge, Kat commented that the tinkling of silverware brought her back to the early days of her singing career when she performed jazz standards for diners at steakhouses in her native Austin, Texas. While most of her set drew from her Kickstarted album, Way Down Low, it also included an audience requested cover of the The Cure’s “Just Like Heaven” via a bottle of champagne strategically placed stage left.

Show Preview: LIZ @ Neumos, Wed. 10/30

Get to the Charli XCX show at Neumos early tomorrow, as the catchy and tasty music of LIZ will be the first order of the evening. If you like pop with R&B, and going back a bit to the cool basics in that genre, you will like the Californian LIZ. For sure. More important to me is that I think her voice, and what she does with it, is great. Plus she’s got backup dancers.
