Sabrina Chap takes over Seattle this weekend/week! (and releases an album with your help)

So last year around this same time, I discovered an album called Oopma by lovely, honey-voiced Sabrina Chap - and I'm pleased to announce that she's coming back to Seattle with a week full of shows! Burlesque, caberet, piano-playing, crooning - you name it, Sabrina is doing it. Man oh man, I love this woman! She's currently cooking up her new album, We Are the Parade, and could use a some dollas to help finish it up and get it out the door. I'm a sucker for kickstarter campaigns, so I donated. You too? 

{Ed. note: Sabrina decided to share a song from her new album so y'all could hear what's next, so we switched out the track!} Ms. Chap generously offered up a preview of some of her new stuff for our imaginary readers! Take a listen to this track from We Are the Parade

So to recap: track down a copy of Oompa and mix up some Manhattans, take a listen to one of her new tracks, throw a few bucks her way if you dig it, and take your pick from any of the shows below to bask in the Sabrina goodness.

If you aren't already in the know, Clinic showcases local talent in the form of live bands, DJs and some righteously naughty nurses. Sounded good to me.

Dirt Bike Annie, Imaginary Andy informed me, a) knew how to rock, and b) knew how to party (they had crashed at his house during their last Seattle show, and there was lots of beer involved). That was enough for me.
