A few years ago I started noticing that a band called Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head was receiving more and more attention around the Seattle area. I was a big fan of their band name and it definitely stood out on any bill. While the band ended up changing its name to Brite Futures, they continue to make some great tunes that are worth checking out. I came across this video of them sharing an intense moment with Natalie Portman a while ago and it still has me cracking up.
I’m personally a big fan and they put on a ridiculously fun live show that will definitely have you dancing. I left their set at Sasquatch a few years ago with a pretty sever toe injury due to some wild fellow dancers. You can catch them this Sunday, June 12th at Chop Suey along with Fresh Espresso, The Redwood Plan and Lisa Dank. Just make sure to put on your dancing shoes!
