Spesh share sweet, nostalgic “Tomato Rose” video
How do you tell the story of a band? If you had to, there are worse places to start than with a place. In this case, Seattle, present day. The city is beset—or if you’re less inclined to doomsday thinking, enriched—by corporate interests. Neighborhoods that once housed artists, musicians, and weirdos of other stripes have become inhospitable. These people congregate in dive bars or out-of-the-way clubs or someone’s apartment. They drink cheap wine and talk about where they’ll go when they inevitably have to leave. In these dim corners, Spesh first took root. Today the four-piece share their sweet and nostalgic video for “Tomato Rose” (directed by Eleanor Petry) with KEXP. You can watch on YouTube.
