The Voice Box recommends - Americana edition

A selective listing of performances for the weekend of July 10-12:

Moe and Aimee Bon Voyage Party
with The Starlings

Moe and Aimee played for our wedding reception cocktail hour as the amazing duo MoZo. Moe recently released her solo album, Blues Filter Through, and Aimee's band The Starlings are releasing their limited-edition EP tonight! I may be biased, but their music makes me really happy. Come out and support these two super cool gals (and of course their talented bandmates!).

Friday, July 10th - 9:00 pm
Conor Byrne Pub

The Tallboys CD release party
with Slimpickins

From The Tallboys' website:

Based in Seattle, Washington, The Tallboys are a four piece old time string band well-versed in traditional fiddle tunes and mountain songs. They stay honest to their traditional inspirations, yet charge up their sound with a raw edge of gritty enthusiasm conjured from their years of street performing. The Tallboys consistently deliver exciting stage performances and hard-driving dance tunes.

We've listened to two members of The Tallboys nearly every Sunday for the past few years at the Ballard Farmers Market, and they're fantastic. Should be an excellent show.

Friday, July 10th - doors at 8:30 pm, show at 9:30 pm
Tractor Tavern
