CRITIC'S PICKS: Noah Gundersen
Noah Gundersen
Sun., Dec. 28
Noah Gundersen, Eddie's Attic - This Seattle-based indie folk singer has been releasing personal, ruminative music since 2008, but found his sweet spot on If This Is the End (2023). Mixing folk, subtle electronics and a composite of stripped down and more complex arrangements with his yearning vocals creates music of raw honesty and familiar truths. It should be perfect for the post-Christmas blues as we look forward to a new year of opportunities and reflection on what has just transpired. Often intense and always heartfelt, Gundersen's warm style and earnest sentiments dovetail with this venue's naturally cozy vibe. - Hal Horowitz
