I just want to briefly go on record as saying that I love this city. I mean seriously, where else can you have Yellow Tail Records, Suicide Squeeze Records, and Sub Pop…all in one location? Not to mention that little label named LuckyHorse. All the beautiful music. Tons of great shows going on in our fair city in the up and coming weeks. I recommend you check out Bright Eyes, Louis XIV, Hot Hot Heat, Keller Williams, and the Matches just to name a few. (Does anyone know why they changed Graceland to El Corazon?)
[Excuse my lack of post lately folks, I forgot who I was (ie username) for just a brief moment.]
You may have also heard of a little label called Barsuk. They’re the completely awesome folks who represent(ed) Death Cab for Cutie, among other great indie bands on the current roster.

Graceland is probably becoming El Corazon for the same reason that the Off Ramp became the Graceland. New owners. [thestranger]
Yeah, I’m a big fan of Barsuk actually. I know they have a PO Box here in Seattle for distribution purposes, I just wasn’t exactly sure that they were -located- here. Good to know, it was something that I hadn’t cleared up in my mind yet. But you’re right, they have some amazing things on the roster.
