Lizzie Huffman

This Thursday, the most lovely person on the entire west coast, Lizzie Huffman will be performing a FREE show at the Ground Zero Teen Center in Bellevue.

Lizzie is an incredibly talented artist who I have admired since I first saw her performing at this same venue four years ago. Since then, I have seen her play countless shows and grow musically. She even performed at the very first concert I put on and it was a pleasure working with her and her other band Man in the Blue Van.

The concert is starting at 6:00 PM or 7, I’m assuming 6 because shows start earlier in the summer. Other performances that night will include Chad Bucklew and Call Om Ie (Kyle Craig.)

The winner of the 8th Annual Sound Off! Competition is…

DYNO JAMZ

Congratulations guys! I am such a fan, I’m actually sorry I haven’t listened to any of their stuff until now and even more disappointed in myself for not attending the finals last night at the EMP. My friend Nick who plays bass in Dyno Jamz is also a part of another band that I adore Man in the Blue Van.

Sound Off! is associated w/ the EMP, 107.7 THE END, The Old Redmond Fire House, Bumbershoot, Folk Life, The Vera Project, and The Stranger and previous winners include: Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head, The Lonely H, School Yard Heroes and Idiot Pilot.

Their stuff is really great, I’m quite impressed. Can’t wait to see them at Bumbershoot this year!!

Check them out.
