There’s a new music festival coming to the Seattle area. It’ll be centered in Pioneer Square, and it will happen the weekend after Halloween. (November 5,6,7,8) The festival is called Baba Obscura and it’s being spearheaded by the owner of the Pioneer Square club, Baba Yaga, and Phil Pirrone of A Static Lullaby.
What is Baba Yaga?
They refer to themselves as Seattle’s Morning, Noon and Night Rock’n’roll Clubhouse. Musician Ryan Granger i s the owner operator and he has a vision. Great live music and a great kitchen, and now possibly a great music festival.
According to seattletimes.com,‘ Dubbed Baba Obscura, the new four-day fest (Nov. 5-8) will be a multiclub affair, filling six stages with (but not limited to) garage, psychedelic and punk rock bands like Texas psych lords The Black Angels, Bay Area post-punks Provoker, Nigerian desert blues guitarist Mdou Moctar (solo), influential garage punks The Gories, and Sub Pop punks Downtown Boys.’
Most of the festival will take place on two different stages one at the Baba Yaga and another one at The Axis event space. Add to that, the Central Saloon, and for an extra charge you can go see the Black Angels at the Showbox…
