Out on the Town: 8/18

I apologize for posting this a little last minute – I actually thought this event was going on tomorrow night…but it’s not.

Tonight at 8PM, some of your favorite local Seattle musicians will be pay tribute to Feist by performing one of her songs and then one of their original songs.

Check out the amazing lineup below:

Featuring Charity Thielen (The Head & The Heart)
Goldfinch
Lesli Wood (Redwood Plan)
Hannah Williams (Youth Rescue Mission)
Noah & Abby Gundersen (The Courage)

Secret Heart: One Evening of Feist Songs Turned Inside and Out by Seattle Bands is a benefit that supports Fremont Abbey Arts Center’s youth arts programs and scholarships. A portion of the proceeds from tonight’s show will go directly to the program.

Tickets are $15, All ages – Doors at 6:30 PM

Feist – Look at what the light did now

Today in Europe, Feist released her new documentary “Look at What the Light Did Now,” following the making of her hit CD The Reminder.

The film highlights the visual and sonic collaborators that amplified her music and vision in the studio and on tour, including music video director Patrick Daughters (who did “1234” and “I Feel It All”), photographer Mary Rozzi (who shot the album cover), and shadow puppet artist Clea Minaker (who designed and executed onstage projections during The Reminder tour).

The DVD comes with 13-track CD that includes live recordings and covers from Gonzales. The DVD will be released in North America tomorrow.

Feist is a beautiful singer and song writer, I’m pretty sure I’ve had The Reminder on constant rotation since I first got it.
