H is for Hellgate is soon to be for the history books

After five years of gracing nearly every stage Seattle has to offer, local rock locomotive H is for Hellgate has been finally derailed by the announced departure of another member (amicably, he’s off to another country). Going through one line-up change last year was tough, but two in as many years? Hard for any band to sustain.
July 23rd, H is for Hellgate will be playing one final show at the Comet Tavern, with Bone Cave Ballet, To the Waves, and The Oregon Donor. That night I expect H will be for ‘Hooray’ as much as it is for Hellgate.

Some of my favorite local shows featured that band. I know Jamie (and Ben, and all the other H Is For Hellgate alumni) will continue to make great music in other configurations, but Hellgate really knew how to collectively blow my mind. Damn.

H is for “Goddamn it!”

Sad to see another great local band bite the dust. Hoping everyone finds their way back to music and creativity.
