AJ Power, May artist @ Victrola on 15th - art at Victrola Coffee & Art 411 15th Avenue East, Seattle, WA 98112
From the artist himself: "I worked as a Federal Observer on fishing vessels out of Dutch Harbor Alaska in 1999 - responsible for monitoring compliance, estimating catch quantity, recording bycatch, recording endangered species. Observers are otherwise known as “fish cops”, although there is actually little power that comes with the title. The sinking of the Alaska Ranger, the death of the captain and the fishmaster, the account of the Observer onboard, helped form the impetus for this new body of work. Elemental Forces. Consumption. Death at Sea. Indifference and Ecstasy."
MagraneHill - Victrola on 15th - Mon, May 5 8-10pm - music at Victrola Coffee & Art 411 15th Avenue East, Seattle, WA 98112
Magrane’s music draws from and touches upon the seasonal nature of archetypal human experience: love and loss, faith and fear: the unknown. His songs collect from the deep and varied musical traditions of the past: the folk ballads sung out on the porches of summer, blues laments from deep in the fields of the heart and spirit, the raw electricity of rock n’ roll. Hill crafts his own songs that pay homage to his roots in folk and bluegrass music while nodding to the sonic creativity and lyrical playfulness of post-post-modernism. If you're lucky, you just might catch Adam picking tunes out on the guitar and singing like he was sitting on a cockroach infested porch, thunder rumbling, and the warm rain coming down in sheets.
