First Night is always one of our favorite nights in Tacoma—downtown Tacoma is alive and kicking all night with amazing music, surprises around every corner, and a palpable, carnivalesque atmosphere. Here’s a little film we put together, putting the evening into a visual nutshell.
What a way to celebrate…Happy New Year!
Original poster art for another fantastic music festival—music, snow, and more music in the Bavarian-rich Leavenworth, Wash. There’s some heavy hitters on this bill and all in a really unique setting.

In the forests of Timber Outdoor Music Festival, Benjamin Verdoes risked life and limb (pun intended) to climb a tree and play this shimmering acoustic ode for us—and now we get to share it with you. Many thanks to Benjamin!
We had such an amazing time at TIMBER! Outdoor Music Festival this year—including, but not limited to: (1) sitting front-and-center through J Mascis‘ mind-altering set, (2) watching Damien Jurado‘s gorgeous set from our tent, (3) the Milky Way overhead, (4) swimming in the river with good friends, (5) feeling a world away in Tolt-MacDonald Park, and (6) spending the weekend with some of our favorite people and artists. Thank you Kevin, Phil and Chad at Artist Home! Photos are below and films are to come…!

Some pretty sweet thing-a-ma-bobbers we’re helping put together for this year’s TIMBER! Outdoor Music Festival!

Our own wedding division The Heart Dept. loved capturing the magic and generosity swirling in the air during Seattle’s 2013 “Get Hitched, Give Hope” — an opulent gala and fundraising auction held last fall at The Four Seasons and one that bore witness to a staggering number of wedding vendors and industry artisans donating their services to an incredible cause. Dressed to the hilt in ravishing roaring twenties attire, betrothed couples floated through an evening bubbling with champagne, cafe music and deliciousness, bidding on all manner of goods and services—with all proceeds from the evening directed entirely to The Dream Foundation—a charity that fulfills end-of-life wishes for patients with terminal illness.
Here’s the poster we created for the 2nd annual TIMBER! Outdoor Music Festival. Take a look at those headliners!
We wanted to catch the vibe of swim trunks and boat sails and tent flaps and starry nights and forever blues. We’re already mentally there . . . hope you’ll join us in July!
