A live performance by Map of the Woulds, a Seattle band blending angular rock, dark jazz and funk, presented by Space 101.1 FM.
Map of the Woulds play a matinee at Conor Byrne Pub on Saturday, October 10, with the show presented by Space 101.1 FM. It's a single-band bill, so the whole set belongs to them.
They're a Seattle band that comes out of the lawless fringes of the city's music scene, and the description of their sound is a bit of a mouthful. They blend angular rock, dark jazz, and goofball funk, and their writing stretches from simple 17-chord pop to avant-garde pop, funky prog, and psychedelic rock. It's a wide net to cast, but that's the point—they're pulling from a few different directions at once.
The venue is the Conor Byrne Pub, a cooperatively run live music room in the heart of Ballard. It was formerly known as The Owl, and it's been a go-to watering hole for Seattle musicians for the last hundred years, serving as a launchpad for many of the city's legacy acts while continuing to book both budding talent and household names. It's a spot with deep roots in the local scene, and it's where you'll find them for this one.
