HEATWARMER

Heatwarmer is an innovative Seattle-based pop band, comprising some of the city’s weirdest and most spirited performers. Hailing from the rugged Northwest — an area often associated with grungy ennui and tuneful mountain-men — these five synth-junkies taken together are somewhat of an anomaly in the region. Cherry-picking bits and pieces of stuff from certifiably “lame” genres like Latin Jazz, worship music, 80s VHS soundtrack schlock and whatever else happens to tickle his fancy, songwriter and bassist Luke Bergman casts his inspirations into the furnace of imagination, creating a sound that is unexpected and unique.

NighTraiN All female funk-punk band. One of our personal favs!

Prawnyxx Jazz/drums playing old-school hip-hop / sax punk Out with a new 10 inch!

I'm just going to copy the text from the event and post it here. All you need to know though is that there's a brilliant festival at my house today, it starts at 3pm, you should come to it.

Michael and Isis dropped by to talk about their collaboration on Counter-Couture, a new class at UW taught by Michael and Isis' work on a documentary chronicling the Source Family. We talked all about fashion and its role in culture/counter culture and moved on into a myriad of realms. These are two fascinating characters with a vision. Keep up to date on their current projects!
