Why Now?
Once primed for becoming a next-Seattle post-grunge mecca -
which never happened - the city's indie-rock program hasn't
thrown in the towel.
But it's the ability to weave in a new breed of singer-songwriters
without giving
up the goods that actually made it a scene that keeps it thriving.
Band on the Rise: Roman Candle - explosive new darlings.
History Lesson (Triangle): Archers of Loaf, Ben Folds Five,
Superchunk, Whiskeytown
Where It's At: Cat's Cradle - you'll spend more time here than
in study lab; Local 506 - common ground for garage bands, goths
and go-go dancers; the Cave - singer-songwriters and open-mike
nights abound.
