Ready to make some noise? Noise for the Needy is.
The annual benefit turns Seattle nightclubs into fundraisers, for five nights of shows starting Wednesday. This year, the beneficiary is Urban Rest Stop, a program that provides homeless families and individuals with free bathroom and laundry services.
The event involves some 60 local and national bands and artists at nearly a dozen clubs.
Shows this week include Wednesday night's opening at Neumo's, with Black Angels and the Warlocks, pictured above (a 10:30 p.m. show was added when the first sold out); Thursday night at the Sunset Tavern with Open Choir Fire and Peter Parker; and Thursday's Tractor Tavern bill of Two Gallants, the Quiet Ones, Facts About Funerals and See Me River & the Dead Horse Creek.
Shows continue Friday through June 15, concluding with an all-star, all-ages hip-hop bill at the Showbox at 9 p.m. June 15, with Talib Kweli, Common Market, Grayskul and Gabriel Teodros (read next week's NWTicket for more).
Door prices range from a low of $5 to $27 for the Talib Kweli concert. More information: www.noisefortheneedy.org or e-mail info@noisefor theneedy.org.
