I saw Seattle’s Sad Face last month at the Tractor Tavern, and yes, they are stunning. I hadn’t heard of this band – how? why was that? – and was torn to bits by their music. I didn’t know what they would do next. They’ll be at the Comet this Saturday, December 3rd. Do not miss their set. Get there early. Leave work early. Quit whatever you are doing early. I don’t care. Get in trouble.

The second annual Reykjavik Calling was held at Neumos on October 28th. The event, which musically celebrates the relationship between sister cities Seattle and Reykjavik (plus additional Nordic countries), included performances by Ólöf Arnalds, David Bazan, Sean Nelson, Shelby Earl, Gudrid Hansdóttir and Nive Nielsen. A big thank you to Simon Krane for these photos!

Look at all you beautiful Uproar people! We’ve got lots of lovely shots of Uproar activities from this year’s festival – you might see yourself somewhere in here. I hope so.
