Instore Music with Laura Veirs
Tuesday, May 20, 2008 at 12:30pm

Songstress, tunesmith, and Decemberists collaborator Laura Veirs sure knows how to harness the sea in a plucky guitar strum. Combining old-world blues, Americana, folk, and wicked punk-style percussives, she creates lush songs beating with the heart of nature (albeit using a beatbox, loops, and pedals onstage).

Classical Corner with Cate Hagman
From 1991 until 2005, Cate Hagman worked at Olsson's Bethesda store and focused particularly on classical music, in which she betrayed a decided weakness for early music ensembles, mezzos, and baritones. Since 1995 she has been a political transcriber for a local independent newswire. When not worrying about the state of the world or obsessing over the placement of a comma, Cate will talk your ear off on the subjects of genealogy, classic movies, and Britcoms. Read More...
Subsonics by Ama Wertz
Ama Wertz has street cred. She is a self-proclaimed: snob, Germanophile, spinster, and cyclist. She's worked in radio on two continents. She knows more than ten people in Montana. She likes: crafting, good acoustics, attractive typeface, pomegranates, and bulleted lists. She dislikes: musicals, sneers, classic rock, and bios written in third person. Her favorite band is SSLYBY. She does not subscribe to any magazines.Read More...
