Micah Subar : Presented by Sou’wester Arts @ The Sou'wester
Jan 22 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Micah Subar : Presented by Sou’wester Arts

Micah Subar is a Seattle, Washington based guitar player, singer, songwriter, bassist, producer, and collaborator on an eclectic group of musical projects. His imaginative songwriting tells stories of misadventure and the search for creative freedom through the lens of folk music, yet is delivered with a reverence for classic soul. Micah released his debut LP ‘Daydream Ledger’ in January 2019. This album draws the listener in with a toned-down energy and minimalist aesthetic. He followed this up with the EP ‘For Now,’ a luminous, down-to-earth, modern take on the classic singer-songwriter genre. Micah is currently touring the Pacific Northwest and surrounding areas.

Hayley Lynn : Presented by Sou’wester Arts @ The Sou'wester

Hayley Lynn : Presented by Sou’wester Arts
Hayley Lynn is a Portland based west coast indie rock artist with folk fashioned storytelling.  Lynn has been quietly growing songs and albums from her hometown over the last five years. Now, with a new album on the horizon, Lynn unveils a twist in her sound with her single “Tail Lights,” a 90s indie-rock throwback that shows us that Lynn’s powerful pop-rock sensibility and bold lyricism is just beginning.

Arthur C. Lee : Presented by Sou’wester Arts @ The Sou'wester
Feb 5 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm
 
Arthur C. Lee : Presented by Sou’wester Arts
Rain-gaze surf songs from the PNW, echoing the experimental noise pop of Yo La Tengo, raw energy of Wilco, and the introspective soundscapes of Brian Eno.
Arthur C. Lee is a man who doesn’t ask for much.  But early on, he knew what he wanted; to be with those who understood where he came from.  To take in the silence of nature.  And when he started playing the guitar at 12, he knew he wanted to play music that would affect people to their core.  He remembers playing a simple etude on his guitar days before moving out of his childhood home, and his mother crying in the kitchen when hearing the song.  Or the lovers dancing on the lawn as his band closed out the summer evening.  And the echo in the room when he heard his father play Amazing Grace on the saxophone for the first time.  This is what matters most to Lee, and is fully dedicated to his craft.  His songs are a reflection of these simple moments that are sometimes the most meaningful.

Joe Vann & Mikayla McVey: Presented by Sou’wester Arts @ The Sou'wester
Feb 19 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Joe Vann’s new record is a literal and spiritual homecoming. The singer-songwriter’s debut solo LP, Found In The Smoke, is an intimate rummage through his past: it weds the freewheeling experimental aesthetics of his beloved indie band, From Indian Lakes, with the music traditions on which he was reared while growing up in a trailer on an acreage in rural northern California. The result is an emo-meets-outlaw Americana love letter—like Justin Vernon and Townes Van Zandt locked in a cabin in the Sierra Nevada for months—with phosphorescent synths, hushed vocals, and hardy guitar work.
