T.I. Thrills Bumbershoot Crowd

Keyshia Cole may have warmed up the mainstage crowd, but T.I. turned the heat up a notch. With the help of a fantastic hype man, T.I. entered the stage to thunderous applause and pumping fists. He matched their enthusiasm with a fiery set that kept the place bouncing and girls screaming.

Keyshia Cole @ Bumbershoot in Seattle

Giving everyone a lesson in crowd engagement (are you listening Beck?), R&B superstar Keyshia Cole owned the Mainstage this afternoon. Shouting out to the “ladies and fellas,” Cole strutted from one side of the stage to the other, making sure every fan felt like she was belting the lyrics to only him (or her). In a festival dominated by indie and alternative acts, it was refreshing to see an artist with true vocal talent delivering the goods.

EMBED THIS VIDEO

OurStage band Beehive kicked off the Bumbershoot festival here in Seattle and absolutely rocked the place. From their electronically induced take on Helter Skelter to their OurStage hit Better Than Lies, they warmed up the Seattle crowd (weather in the high 50’s this morning) and got them ready for a weekend of fun.

Stay tuned today for coverage of Beck, Band of Horses, and The Walkmen…

Get Ready to Bumbershoot!

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:
