video // Cult Tacoma : First Night 2011/12
Fire-breathing dragons were on parade, kids were break-dancing and spray-painting, the tough girls where on roller skates and rabbits and tigers soared overhead. It was New Year’s Eve in Tacoma.
And shortly before the last night of 2011 suddenly became the First Night of 2012, Portland natives and Tacoma favorites Drew Grow & the Pastors’ Wives took to the stage to unleash the passion of a hundred fireworks shows. Or, at least, unleash the sound—as evidenced by Mr. Grow’s blown off hat and our blown out camera mic.
Check out these photos of the Dragon Parade and a live set by Portland locals (and Tacoma favorites) Drew Grow & The Pastors’ Wives.
Happy New Year!
event // Tacoma’s Fall Free For All : 2011
In October, Tacoma’s Broadway Center hosted a weekend-long arts and cultural festival in the heart of downtown Tacoma—the 2011 Fall Free for All. They asked us to shoot some photos of excellent music program curated by local Tacoma musician Aaron Stevens of Goldfinch.
Above is the first video—Seattle/Tacoma locals Concours d’Elegance blowing away the crowd with their tight new wave jams and captivating stage show.
Below is a look at Portland’s soulful and face-melting Drew Grow & The Pastors’ Wives:
And here’s some dreamy otherworldliness from Portland’s Laura Gibson:

video // Doe Bay Fest 2010
Way back in August, the Belle Creative home offices took their show on the road to beautiful Orcas Island in the San Juans—we started off the workcation with a weekend at the stellar Doe Bay Fest enjoying meteor showers and some amazing music (we called it “band camp for adults.”) Check out our video recap and keep an eye out for Sonoma’s own Ryan William Lynch and his band Indian Valley Line . . . !
