Win Tickets to Sound Off! Night One
The Northwest’s premier battle of the band’s Sound Off! get’s going this Saturday, featuring the first four of twelve semi-finalists who qualified for the competition. I myself participated in the selection process, spending an afternoon in a room nestled in the rafters of the EMP|SFM, reviewing over 30 bands, separating the interesting and ready-to-be-heard from the not-quite-there-yet of under-age bands from all over the Northwest. This first night of Sound Off! is showcases two pop bands and two heavier rock bands, each with their own strength. As a part of the selection committee I can attest (Sui Generis) live up to their latin name, they are a truly unique post-rock juggernaut. Bellingham two-piece Candy Sound on the other hand channel all sorts of familiar Northwest influences.
