NIKKI TALOTTA: FISHTANK ENSEMBLE >>>
The Eastside Club in Olympia is on a musical roll. It’s been a hot spot for seriously talented, seriously diverse musicians. Reggae, rock, punk, blues â€" you name it.
This week’s highlight is a group out of L.A. called Fishtank Ensemble. Having recently hit the road on a six month, cross-country tour, the band brings a taste of something different to Oly. With layers of worldly influence, this four-piece wows their audience with a weaving of sounds induced from such instruments as musical saws, violins, accordions and the slap bass. Top it off with flesh-raising vocals and a lively performance, and this assembly can’t be beat.
Fishtank’s music seems to be derived from the mesmerizing canals of Italy, the ancient hills of Japan, the wild celebrations of gypsies and the radios of young Americans.
So even if you haven’t traveled this summer, you can see this group and at least feel like you have.
[The Eastside Club, with Erev Ravs, Thursday, Aug. 6, 9 p.m., $5, 410 Fourth Ave., Olympia, 360.357.9985]
