SECRET HISTORY PRESENTS: EARTH / MADELINE / FUR ELISE
Tuesday Apr 29, 2008 9:00 PM

Buy Tickets Online

Earth are an American drone band based in Seattle, Washington, formed in 1990 by Dylan Carlson, Slim Moon, and Greg Babior; the band took its name from the first incarnation of Black Sabbath. Although they have played various styles of music, they are best known as pioneers of a minimalistic, long and repetitive form of heavy music known as drone. To a lesser extent their sound is referred to as doom metal. Earth, however, have little to do with metal in their current sound. Their early albums could be seen as a variation of the experimental doom-influenced metal of The Melvins.

This show is for ages 18 and up. Tickets for this show are $10.

TAPES 'N TAPES / WHITE DENIM
Wednesday Apr 30, 2008 8:00 PM

Buy Tickets Online

The brothers Tapes banded together in the winter of 2003 to salvage what they could of their sanity from the frozen tundra that is Minneapolis. After years spent honing their musical stylings, and releasing a self-recorded EP in 2004, the collective developed a sound that Splendid describes as "a hybrid that resembles Low fighting it out with My Bloody Valentine...eclectic, style-defying stuff."

TICKETS ARE $12.

SECRET HISTORY PRESENTS: ISLANDS
Thursday May 1, 2008 9:00 PM

Buy Tickets Online

Islands sprouted out of the kindred x-ray vision of Nick Diamonds and J‘aime Tambeur, two rag-tag youths from the weird side of the tracks. Previously, they‘d worked together in sludge-crust band "the unicorns" and, after some time apart, met up in L.A. on the set of Woody Allen‘s film "Melinda Melinda Melinda". Unexpectedly, they‘d both been separately cast in the pivotal "restaurant" scene, in small "walk-on" roles opposite each other. Their fierce competitive spirits kept the two from getting too close, but once the final cut of the film surfaced and they found both of their parts had been left on the cutting room floor, their dormant friendship had been rekindled, cloaked in mutual pity and despondency. After much deliberation, they agreed to return to the snowy climes of Montreal and jump headfirst into the often heartbreaking world of music.

This show is for ages 18 and up. Tickets for this show are $12.

Secret History presents: MAN MAN / YEASAYER @ Workplay
Friday May 2, 2008 9:00 PM

Buy Tickets Online

Man Man will be presented by Secret History at the Workplay Theater.

Hailing from Philadelphia, Man Man are an astonishingly original quintet who have found the perfect berth for their gypsy-swamp-rock-carny-soul sound at the equally singular Anti- Records, home to other such illustrious iconoclasts as Tom Waits, Nick Cave and Neko Case. Man Man have been understatedly described by NPR as "quirky and mischievous... often with old-world instrumentation and plenty of theatrics."

The music of Brooklyn's Yeasayer is an eclectic, genre-bending journey into pop, druggy rock, Middle Eastern and African musics, folk, and dub.

The show is $12 advance / $15 day of, and it is 18 and up!

ROCK PAPER ROCK PRESENTS: LORD T & ELOISE / DJ COCO
Saturday May 3, 2008 8:00 PM

Buy Tickets Online

Lord T & Eloise bring "AristoCrunk" back to Bottletree for a School's out for Summer BLOWOUT!! Lord T & Eloise may best be described as more of a musical performance-art act than recording artists. Visuals are intrinsic to the appeal of this high-concept act -- Lord T in Victorian garb and Eloise's gold-plated skin -- white blue-bloods rapping about their old-money wealth. Genetically engineered over generations of obscure royalty, Maurice Eloise XIII, Lord Treadwell, and Myster E rap's royal blood. They have emerged from the past to save the present, waiting for the right moment to spread their gospel of the good life and save rap music!

$8. 18 and up.

The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter (the new album he's touring on) catches the Idaho musician in the midst of a radical transformation. While last year's The Animal Years had Ritter thinking about the state of the nation, his latest offering finds him pining for Joan of Arc, Calamity Jane and Florence Nightingale, all of whom seem to be stuck together in the belly of a whale, a la Jonah.

Show is $15 advance / $18 day of and ages 18 and up.

The Cave Singers is the new project of Derek Fudesco of Pretty Girls Make Graves/Murder City Devils, Pete Quirk of Hint Hint, and Marty Lund of Cobra High. They released their debut full length last fall on Matador records. Here is the mystery of Seattle’s Cave Singers: They never listened to much folk music, they never intended to play folk music, and more importantly, their guitarist never picked up the instrument until recently. Yet, this strange trio is writing and performing some of the most hypnotizing folk music we have today.

This is an ALL AGES show. Tickets are $8.

SUPERSUCKERS / THE LAST VEGAS
Thursday May 15, 2008 9:00 PM

Buy Tickets Online

Something of an anomaly on the Sub Pop roster, the Supersuckers bore a limited surface resemblance to grunge, but they were a party band at heart, donning cowboy hats and kicking out a gleefully trashy brand of throttling, rockabilly-flavored garage punk. Their lyrics were a raucous, over-the-top celebration of all the attendant evils of rock & roll -- sex, booze, drugs, Satan, and whatever other vices the band could think of, all glorified with tongue planted firmly in cheek. Save for an abrupt and temporary detour into hardcore honky tonk, their approach stayed relatively consistent through the '90s, as did their quality control.

Tickets for this show are 13+. Ages are 18+!
