Local Music Nation

I opted out of any 4^th of July revelry this year although I was sad to turn down an opportunity to see Smashing Pumpkins, Chris Stapleton, and Queen Latifah and I did miss my traditional walk along the beach watching fireworks up and down the coast…

Musically (or musically adjacent?), I think what stuck with me most from last week’s showgoing was a moment during the Whale Songz set when Annika Bennett & Olivia Barton were discussing the origins of a song that reflects the moment along the path of any strong female friendship when the women confide in each other their respective history of sexual assault/abuse. This hit. Check out “Marbles” by Whale Songz and check out next week’s list of my recommended shows:

I was honored to be at the Hotel Cafe Friday night for the return of Greg Laswell (his first headline show in 7 years). What I remember most from seeing Greg at the Hotel Cafe years ago was his storytelling and the intimate space made it feel like the room was in conversation for the near two hour set which covered all the hits as well as new tunes from his upcoming album, I’m So Happy That You and I Are Alive at the Same Time. It was a one of those magical nights that I’m going to miss when the venue moves.
