Jenn Champion Brings Unique Synth Pop to Capitol Theater

October 11, 2018July 12, 2019

By Adam McKinney For over two decades, Jenn Champion has been making open-hearted music in the Pacific Northwest. Champion made her name in indie rock favorites Carisa’s Wierd, then found success with her solo project, S, which favored a more stripped down bedroom pop. It’s refreshing to see Champion’s recent […]

October 5, 2018July 12, 2019

Swing by Eagles Ballroom

September 27, 2018July 12, 2019

By Kameko Lashlee Every Tuesday evening on the corner of Fourth and Plum Street, a cacophony of uptempo jazz music and foot-stomping emanates from the second-floor ballroom of the Fraternal Order of Eagles Ballroom and Conference Center. This weekly shindig, broadly known as Oly Swing, is a time capsule of […]

Cloudy With a Chance of Potato Balls

September 26, 2018July 12, 2019

By Jonah Barrett For a vegan, dining out can be a minefield. Options are usually limited to Asian food, bland burritos and the old fallback, green salads. Downtown Olympia has an alternative for that with the recent opening of The Wayside Cafe & Deli. Jamie Vulva and Kevin Rainsberry opened […]

Rodents of Unusual Size Swarm the Capitol Theater

September 19, 2018July 12, 2019

By Karen Lunde and Billy Thomas Imagine a 20-pound rodent that looks like a weird cross between a beaver and a rat. It has enormous orange teeth and a skinny tail. It lives in swampy, tidal areas and dines mostly on aquatic plants. It procreates prolifically. You’ve got yourself a […]

Red at Olympia Little Theatre

September 19, 2018July 12, 2019
