The Pharmacy plays an ALL AGES SHOW TO HONOR OUR GOOD FRIEND ROSS KRINSKY!

Saturday November 28 at 9:00 PM.

Scott Yoder and Brendhan Bowers made plenty of noisy racket in the local garages and teen centers growing up on Vashon Island. They moved across the Puget Sound to Seattle and booked their first tour as The Pharmacy (with then-member Joey Seward) in 2003 and have kept the show pretty much on the road ever since. In 2006 Joey left for more metal pursuits and classically trained pianist and fellow Vashon kid Stefan Rubicz joined on keyboards. Since then they’ve transformed from the synth-heavy overdrive of their 2005 debut album B.F.F. through the drizzly sunshine of the Overcast Summer 7″ at last landing on the off-kilter psychedelic pop of Choose Yr Own Adventure. Replete with epic instrumentation – viola, violin, cello, harpsichord and horns all make an appearance- Choose Yr Own Adventure has been years in the making, re-vamped re-recorded and re-written over time.

They have played Bumbershoot, the Capitol Hill Block Party, every club in town and every basement in the country. They have played with the Moldy Peaches and toured with Kimya Dawson (as her opening and backing band), Jeffrey Lewis and Matt & Kim. The 2008 European tour is happening right now. If they could live on tour then they would….. Let’s welcome these guys back to Vashon in a big way, the day after Thanksgiving. ALL AGES SHOW. 9-11pm. We’re making this a really affordable show by ONLY charging $4 cover!!
