    ....................real..editor....best profile tools................real..editor....best profile tools.................. ................ Lonesome Shack consists of Ben Todd playing guitar and singing and Kristian Garrard playing drums. Ben has performed his style of blues for the past 8 years, developing much of his sound in the isolation of New Mexico's Gila Wilderness where he lived for four years in a shack he built. His music shows the influence of post war hill country blues and rural electric blues and gospel but maintains a voice all it's own. Kristian Garrard is a multi-instrumentalist who plays in several bands and projects including KRGA, Joules, Thousands, and Heatwarmer. Together they produce a sound that is unique and compelling. Their performances range from slow, dark laments to high energy dance numbers. Their new album "Slidin' Boa" is in the works!

    Hey there,
    So, this is sort of an extension of the Seattle Secret Show but rather than being sneaky, I'm just telling everyone where it is.

    This
    Saturday we are setting up a really good show that will be taking place
    on the T-Dock on Lake Washington Blvd. For those of you who are
    unfamiliar with the T-Dock, it is just south of Madrona Beach. If you
    are into swimming, come prepared and we can turn it into a late night
    swimming party!

    We have two bands coming all the way from Tejas (second biggest state!) to play for us. They are Wols (www.myspace.com/wolsies) and Golden Arrow Holy Face (http://www.myspace.com/goldenarrowholyface). I am really excited to see them and you should be too!

    There
    are also two Seattle projects that will be peforming. They are both
    amazing and I think a perfect fit for this setting! They are Led to
    Sea (www.myspace.com/ledtosea) and Mega Bog (http://www.myspace.com/megabog).

    This
    is going to be a really great show and since I am moving to Whidbey
    Island soon, this might be the last one of these I ever do. Come out,
    listen to good music in a cool setting and go night swimming!
