On August 27th I was down at Cairo, an art space near my favorite pub in Seattle, The Summit in Capitol Hill, to see Broken Water, and I caught a short, tight set by a new Seattle band called M. Women. They’re a lo-fi pop/grunge three-piece that play catchy, driving tunes that swiftly sweep you up into their currents of cool. They sound like a more mellow incarnation of The Vaselines. M. Women are playing the Void in Portland on September 9th and Reed College on September 16th. Make the drive, it’ll be worth it.
