The next generation truly can speak for itself. This incredible night will inspire both young and old together long after you leave the theater.

The Grand Slam will be hosted by Geo of Blue Scholars. Features include acclaimed youth breakdancers The Vicious Puppies and others.

STG Presents: Little Feat

Author Seattle Theatre Group   Filed under Music   February 6, 2012  

STG presents Little Feat at the Neptune Theatre in Seattle on Wednesday, March 21, 2012.

Tickets cost $35 for advance ticketing or $37 at the door. Show will start at 8:00PM.

In his liner notes for Join the Band, Little Feat’s 2008, career-summing CD, Bill Payne described their motivation for recording as a way of locating the band’s influences. When you’ve played together for nearly forty years and have the instrumental chops and ears that Feat does, that’s a lot of influences, so that they can work with friends from Jimmy Buffett to Dave Matthews to Bob Seger to Emmylou Harris to Vince Gill to Chris Robinson and Mike Gordon – and it all makes musical sense.

STG Presents: Ingrid Michaelson

Author Seattle Theatre Group   Filed under Music    

STG presents Ingrid Michaelson at the Moore Theatre in Seattle on Saturday, April 21, 2012.

$20 – $22

8:00 PM

When she walks into a store in her Brooklyn neighborhood, Ingrid Michaelson is rarely recognized. But once she hands over her credit card to pay, the clerk often pauses, brightens up, and enthusiastically offers a bit of trivia: “Did you know that there’s a singer named Ingrid Michaelson?”

Image has never been her priority, but Michaelson has earned enviable name-recognition thanks to her knack for crafting beautiful, idiosyncratic songs such as “The Way I Am,” “Maybe,” and “Keep Breathing.” (Her new album, Human Again, drops January 24 on Cabin 24 Records/ Mom+Pop Music.) And let the record show that her librarian-chic style has nonetheless received a shout-out in The New York Times.

STG Presents: Kina Grannis

Author Seattle Theatre Group   Filed under Music    

STG presents Kina Grannis at the Neptune Theatre in Seattle on Sunday, May 13, 2012.

$15 Advance / $17 Day of Show/ $20 VIP

8:00 PM All Ages/ Bar w/ ID

Born and raised in Mission Viejo, CA, Kina Grannis started playing shows at the age of 4 in front of stuffed animals. Now she plays in front of people. For those who knew Kina as the shy and self-proclaimed-awkward songstress who escaped into her collegiate stairwells to practice and play in privacy, the idea of playing in front of inanimate objects might actually seem fitting. But between those who travel across state and country lines to her sold out live shows and those navigating through her extensive library of YouTube videos, it’s quite clear that Kina is hardly playing for no one.
