Take some killer classic guitar runs (like the ones you enjoy from Jack White) and some rockin’ chick vocals (similar to those of Hayley Williams of Paramore), and you’ll get something like The Modern Elite. This rock band is on the brink of something big!    This week’s giveaway, When You Wake, is currently ranked 36 in the Radio 92.9 Channel (a New England only channel).  The band has had other songs place as high as 14th at the end of the month! The band is currently working towards releasing it’s first LP in coming months but here is a preview of what’s to come! Expect to see this band around well into future as I believe they might just have what it takes.

My last day at Bumbershoot was a complete whirlwind. Kate Tucker, Blitzen Trapper, and Dan Deacon were all incredible. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I didn’t make it out to some of the biggest shows of the day, including The Offspring, Paramore, and Death Cab for Cutie. Fortunately, my friend Tiffany Sherman came through with great pictures of each of them. Here are some of her best of Paramore:

If you live in Seattle, you’re probably getting excited about the Bumbershoot Festival, which takes place over the coming Labor Day weekend and features artists like Death Cab for Cutie, Beck, and the recently reunited Stone Temple Pilots. We’re particularly excited here at OurStage, because three of our artists have won performance slots at this year’s festival: Beehive, Ashleigh Flynn, and Kate Tucker and the Sons of Sweden.

If you don’t live in Seattle and you’d like to experience Bumbershoot from home, here’s a playlist featuring songs by the three OurStage artists:
