Strangely Alright is more than all right - the band is awesome. Its music is fun, timeless and real. The band can laugh, cry and flip people off all in one album, backed up by talent and experience.
The band also makes cool music videos in antique stores - Rampart, to be exact - and invites the community to dress up and join in the fun. The result is totally classy and totally Tacoma.
"We came away with such a sense of family and community after the shoot," says Regan Lane, guitarist and vocalist for the band. "I hope people are able to feel that way when they watch it."
Push play below for five minutes of feel good. "If I Don't Laugh, I'm Only Going To Cry" is an easy classic, an instant like and you might even see faces you recognize. Enjoy!
If Strangely Alright hits the right chord with you and you want more of their Beatles/Bowie-esque sound, see the band live Saturday, Dec. 14 at the Franciscan Polar Plaza ice rink. You may watch the band for free, or pay $4-$8 and ice skate to its two-hour set beginning at 7 p.m.
"I love Christmas," says Lane with a laugh. "Yes, it's true. I'm just a big kid stuck in a man's body. Lennon's "Happy Christmas (War is Over)" has always been one of my favorite holiday songs and I get to play it this year. Just doesn't get much better."
STRANGELY ALRIGHT, 7-9 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 14, Franciscan polar Plaza, 17th and Pacific Avenue, Tacoma, free admission, $4-$8 ice skate, polarplaza.com
