one of my two favorite local seattle bands is Barcelona (they're tied for first with Beth Whitney).. their music is perfection to drink in live: beautiful, ethereal, and every once in a while, a hint of spookiness. I've seen them live quite a few times, and you can't help but have an awesome time, primarily because THEY are having such an awesome time! they're releasing their new album, Not Quite Yours, on May 8th . They're having an album release party on May 18th and 19th at Columbia City Theater, along with Motopony and Lucas Field also playing. tickets for the 18th are sold out already.. hurry for tickets to the 19th!
