MATT DRISCOLL: LIVER THAN YOU'LL EVER BE >>>
Another Perfect Crime
Another Perfect Crime â€" a Seattle based, all-female threesome built on well constructed pop rock songs and endearing harmonies â€" will set up show at Le Voyeur in Olympia tonight. Let the Sleater-Kinney comparisons fly. Or for the more savvy readers out there, maybe a Mary Timony point of reference is more appropriate.
[Le Voyeur, with The Datura Blues and Wishunu, 10 p.m., no cover, 404 Fourth Ave. E., Olympia, 360.943.5710]
The Toughtimes
Created in 2000 by cousins Nick Santos-Carter and Anthony D. Estrada, who had visions of soul, blues and funk running through their heads, over time the Toughtimes have developed into a fresh-faced group of blues diehards breathing life into a genre many believe has already seen its best days. Full story here.
[Bob’s Java Jive, The Toughtimes, Canon Canyon, Rodeo Kill, The Lucky Devils, Sammy Swell, Friday, Sept. 12, 8 p.m., $5, 2102 S. Tacoma Way, Tacoma, 253.475.9843]
