Spend Some Time at the Bottle
Solo performers aren't anything new. But solo performers who can make you forget that they're performing, well, alone, is a whole 'nother thing. Matt Shaw, the fellow behind The Spend, is one such local musician, whose largely acoustic songs are somehow at once spare and lush, and just varied enough to keep things interesting. He's performing on Sunday, July 4 at the Empty Bottle (1035 North Western Avenue), with Tiny Vipers from Seattle. This show should be a nice, quiet alternative to the usual July 4th hullaballoo. It kicks off at 9:30 p.m. Tickets will run you $8. Buy yours online or at the door.
