Seattle’s Lushy plays space-age martini music—a light, breezy cocktail of Brazilian-inspired exotica, full of swaying bossa nova rhythms, saxophone solos and retro-futurist synths that couldn’t feel less at home in Spare Room’s converted bowling alley bar. Even weirder? Lynval Golding, guitarist for British ska godheads the Specials and current Emerald City resident, is going to be sitting in with the band, and a slate of songs from the 2 Tone legends he used to run with is promised. Either Portland garage popsters the Satin Chaps, who apparently threw this show together, have a weird sense of humor, or maybe they know something about Stumptown dive-bar culture the rest of us aren’t yet hip to.
