Seattle, WA / June 21, 2010 - Black Stax will appear as featured performer at

the second set, which starts at 10:00 p.m.

The Scarlet Tree is located at:

The Goodybagg, includes drummer Lenard Jones and has previously featured other
Seattle greats such as Thaddeus Turner, Josephine Howell and Sister Love.

There is a $5 cover and this is a 21+ event.

Black Stax is the avant-garde of Seattle hip-hop whose debut album Talking
Buildings is an eclectic, urban mix that is reminiscent of The Roots and The coup with
a dash of classic Janis Joplin. Comprised of MCs Silas Blak and Jace ECAj and
vocalist Felicia Loud, Black Stax makes creative, challenging and emotional music
with an injection of hip hop and 70s-era soul.

A collaboration that works, Black Stax successfully blends musical genres and attracts a
varied and supportive following.

Deft Magazine recently noted that, "Oftentimes artists from Seattle are overlooked...But
Black Stax stands out, blending neo-soul, blues, and hip hop to create a sound very
much their own, exposing the world to the sounds of Seattle’s underground with their
debut album."
