Band of the Week: Allen Stone
There is a lot being said about this guy recently so I thought what the hell, here is my take on Allen Stone. Firstly lets talk about the man, or at least the man in my head, created by maybe ten to fifteen interactions with him.  The word that comes to mind is gentleman. He is a quiet, caring man who has an immense warmth...

In the first of my new series of blog posts titled "Band of the Week" I am featuring the sensational Lemolo.  This Indie-Pop duo hails from Seattle and includes Meagan Grandall (Vocals, Piano, Guitar) and Kendra Cox (Drums, Piano), and while I've only seen them live on just two occasions I am totally sold.   I had been hearing word of this band for a while,...

#SeaSocialMen – The Seattle Social Media Man can now stand tall!
For some time I have attended tweet-ups and other social events and seen gangs of fashionable, knowledgeable and connected gals laughing and giggling their way around venues.  With a glass of wine (or champagne) in hand and adorned in the latest fashions, they have flaunted their friendships in front of us men as we stand, shoulders slumped, waiting in one's and two's for them to...

Dave Matthews Band Caravan: Where my music worlds collided!
On Friday I jumped in the car with my little family and made the trip over to The Gorge for day one of the three day Dave Matthews Band Caravan without much thought as to what I was about to see thanks to a very busy week.  It wasn't until half way through the evenings offerings that I realized what a coming together of my musical...

My Doe Bay, Doe Bay!
I think if you died and went to Seattle's music heaven, you might find that it is called Doe Bay.  Well, at least that's how I felt as I stepped onto the ferry to return from Orcas Island on Sunday afternoon.  I had just had an experience that felt so great that it's taken two weeks for me to even sit down and attempt to describe it for...

John Butler plays my fav song, "Ocean" at Red Rocks to 8000 people
  My story about John Butler goes back more than most. I have no idea how many years ago it was when I was with friends in my home town of Perth, Western Australia, it was the morning after a rather a large night of fun at a house party, we were less than healthy and rolled down to the local Fremantle markets to find...
