Photos: Gang of Four & Hollerado @ Showbox Market

On Wednesday, February 16th, English post-punk band Gang of Four played to an ecstatic crowd of faithful fans who sang along the majority of the set. While only two of the original members remain, the original sound of all four remains intact. Warming up the crowd was Hollerado, a Canadian band that has been getting some play time on KEXP. While they aren’t the same sound as Gang of Four, they amped up the crowd for Gang of Four.

The flickr set is here.

SHiPS is a new – and very good – Seattle band partly comprised of a former member of the Lashes (Jacob Hoffman) and one from the Divorce & the Catch (Garrett Lunceford). They’re joined by Chase Forslund on keys/vox and Laurie Kearney on bass. They opened for White Lies last month at Neumos and I wanted to share some photos I got of their set. I couldn’t get any shots with Lunceford in them. Next time!!

Photos: Nachtmystium, Turisas & Daniel Lioneye @ the Showbox Market

Illinois’ Nachtmystium, and Finnish bands Turisas and Daniel Lioneye opened for Cradle of Filth last Friday at the Showbox Market. I’m really sorry I missed this show. A metal band with a violin and accordion, and the band members look like road warriors from the Stone Age? That’s really cool. Here are some of photographer Geoffrey Gribbin’s shots from the evening:

I never intend to get my photos of shows done so late, but for some reason it just happens. These ones are of Supercute!, who opened for Kate Nash in May. Yes, May. If you aren’t familiar with Supercute! here’s some information: the band includes Rachel Trachtenburg of Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players and two of her teenage musician friends Olivia Chambers-Ferrer and Julia Cumming. Keyboardist June Lei, who was at the Neumos show, has now left the band. You can buy some of their music on the wonderful bandcamp: Supercute!’s bandcamp page.
