It’s a shame the show didn’t get a better draw (though it was a Wednesday and just a few short days since the end of the exhausting Music Fest Northwest at that – QRO festival recap).

No matter where you were standing it felt like your ears were clogged, or your head was wrapped in cellophane.

With a close to capacity crowd, Neumo's had no shortage on holiday cheer — on top of the feel-good holiday buzz, there were tiny lights on the banisters, boys in tights and Santa-hats, and a few hundred cut-out snowflakes lining the walls.

Grand Archives were a great way to start this slow Sunday, helping me ease back into festival mode after a long and fantastic day yesterday.

Grand Archives stays truer to form to Carissa’s Weird with more of the darker introspective sense than the overblown rock band I’ve always found Band of Horses to be a little guilty of.
