Local singer-songwriter Annie J headlined at the High Dive. She and her talented five-member band performed songs from her new EP, Get Back, as well as several covers. Seattle artists Brittany Danielle and Natalie Mai Hall came onstage during one song to dance along with Annie. In addition to a great voice, Annie was equally skilled on the piano and flute.

What a perfect night for an outdoor concert! Country singer-songwriter Maren Morris headlined for a full house at Marymoor Park on a clear and mild evening. Morris and her six-member band performed new material from her recent Humble Quest album as well as her numerous multi-platinum singles. Brittney Spencer opened.

Soulful R&B singer-songwriter Sabrina Claudio brought her Based On A Feeing global tour to the Moore Theater. The show had a dramatic beginning when the center stage door opened and she made her grand entrance. The four-member backing band performed flawlessly on the second show of the tour. At one point, Sabrina received flowers from an admirer in the audience.
Pop duo KTJ & Carly performed at Chop Suey near the end of their west coast tour. The LA-based identical twins – Katie on keys and Carly on guitar and bass – performed songs from their new EP, Ego Death. The pair’s rich harmonies were a standout among all the performers that evening.

Hoodie Allen made an appearance in Seattle midway through his With or Without You summer tour. The August 13th show, held at the Crocodile, naturally included his latest track, “Call Me Never,” plus the song “Champagne and Pools.” Sounds pretty damn good right about now! The rapper has four self-released albums to his credit, and it’s great to see him back. Belaganas, a hip-hop trio from Arizona opened the night.
