DREAM SICK
Inspired by the sun & Elmer Yazzie, this guy knows what's going on. Check him out, then check out his art!
Check out Kelli Schaefer from Portland. She'll be in Tucson March 23rd at Project Noise, be there!
Beat Connection is getting 'lots of love right now, go check them out at the High Dive October 28th with Viper Creek Club! See what all the fuss is about, support cool dudes playin' fun music!
Think My Bloody Valentine meets The Anniversary and you have WHIRL from Northern California.. at least it makes sense to me that way. "Distressor" is an awesome demo and I urge you to check it out on their bandcamp - http://whirl.bandcamp.com/album/distressor - Dreampop!

     It started as one man’s vision to build a home in which creators could freely advance their expressive tendencies while collectively collaborating under one roof and delving deeper into the love they have for their individual crafts. Whether it be creating electric colored sound, cinematically capturing the surrounding splendor of our world, or using one’s hands to sculpt, paint, sew, or photograph; whatever it is that one’s pure passion cares to thrust from their mind into our realm, it is absolutely nurtured in the world of Jeff Whitmore.           Jeff Whitmore is a current resident of San Francisco, CA and is taking great strides to give all creative minds a place to unleash their artistic talents. He was the brains behind Mighty, an art gallery and entertainment venue, started in late 2004. Mighty was created in order “to bring back some of the fun, thought-provoking action that’s been in short supply around San Francisco in recent years” (Darian - tribe.net). Mighty was extremely successful in its mission of promoting local artists and today has further led Whitmore to create an even more collaborative home for all the wayfaring artists passing through the untamed Streets of San Francisco.     Whitmore and co-collaborators like Betty Bigas, Emilio Freire, Chris Mcdonnell, and Peter Blick, will open a new, more progressive and superior headquarters in which artists can thrive. Public Works is set to open in fall of 2010. It will incorporate a mix of the club nightlife with everyday creative projects. One of Public Works main missions is to mix new emerging talent with already well-known established artists. They wish to promote the new and sustain the growth within the already recognized. The venue is set to include: studio spaces for artists to create daily, art galleries to house works of art, music venues for various musical talent traveling within the area, and a bar/nightclub offering for evening recreation. Numerous collaborations have already commenced between artists in the opening process of Public Works.      Public Works is already sponsoring block parties on Erie Street between 13th and 14th Street where the venue is currently under construction. Here artists, musicians, environmentalists, and troves of inventive minds came together for a day of collaboration and pure imaginative creation. Bouncing ideas off one another to create a cohesive powerful atmosphere of freedom and pure fun! The block party included numerous eclectic art vendors, grooving live music with hordes of dancing locals, as well as scrumptious food, such as pulled pork sandwiches that immediately melted in your mouth. The positive vibes were all consuming. Locals planted flowers and cleaned trash from the city streets, as talented artists joined forces to paint the psychedelic mural that is out front of the soon to be home of Public Works.     Jeff Whitmore began his journey for artistic collaboration years ago and is succeeding in giving the creative minds of our generation a nurturing place to freely express themselves without criticism. Continue on Mr. Whitmore & Co., your visions have helped and are helping more than you know.

While in San Francisco, we stumbled across The Clarion Alley Mural Project (CAMP) and I decided to take everyone on a photo journey through this awesome street alley. How often do you hear awesome and street alley in the same statement? If you want to read more about this project, go HERE. CAMP is definitely worth checking out if you’re ever in the City by the Bay. I would love to do something like this in Seattle, or anywhere, really.
