Hello everyone!
If you're a fan of The Thoughts, you may be a fan of Radiohead; if you're a fan of Radiohead, and are in the Seattle area this Saturday, February 19th, you definitely should not miss this show:
Seattle Rock Orchestra plays OK Computer and The Bends
As in, both albums, in their entirety, with a full orchestra, backing-band, choir, and a cast of amazing guest singers from Seattle, including Jon Auer of The Posies, Jim Antonio of The Purrs, Rachel Flotard from Visqueen, John Van Deusen of The Lonely Forest, and more!
Katie and I have both been involved in the Seattle Rock Orchestra for the last year or so (including having them back The Thoughts last fall!), and this show is no exception; Katie is playing violin, and I'll be playing guitar in the backing band. I also had the opportunity to arrange a couple of the songs from The Bends for the orchestra.
It will be epic, and wonderful. Also, if you haven't heard the news, Radiohead is releasing their newest album, King of Limbs, this Saturday as well. You can download that, hear the future of Radiohead, and then come hear two of the most influential albums of our time in full orchestral glory. We hope to see you there!
