Tractor Tavern

The best low-pressure place to discover new music in Seattle. The venue is cozy, the tickets are affordable, the beer is cheap. Keep an eye on the calendar and you'll catch bigger names coming through. Notables I've seen: Billy Bragg, Shonen Knife (x2), John Vanderslice. I just discovered Fantastic Cat, and good news--they're playing the Tractor at the end of the month and I have my ticket.
