Welcome to The Vinyl District Seattle! We are very excited to be sharing all of the great things happening here in the Seattle music scene. Luckily we live in a city that gives us plenty to write about.
After debating the best way for Seattle to make our grand TVD entrance, I finally decided on a music video that not only gives a perfect visual representation of our beautiful city, but also spotlights a Seattle hip-hop artist that has been getting plenty of well-deserved attention. Macklemore’s “The Town,” featured on The Unplanned Mixtape, was released in 2009 and does a great job celebrating both the city and it’s people.
After recently selling out two nights at the Showbox (in less than 48 hours), Macklemore and Ryan Lewis have added a third show on February 27th. I definitely wouldn’t be surprised if the third show sells out quickly, so be sure to grab your tickets if you haven’t already. Two (probably three) sold out nights at the Showbox is something to be very excited about and after seeing this video, I think it’s safe to say that they are! Be sure to check out this video for upcoming tour dates.
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis also just released the music video for “Irish Celebration,” featured on the Vs. Redux EP released in October 2010, and it is just as great as I had hoped it would be. I’m headed to the closest pub, who’s with me?
