Photo Show at Tigertail.. Check it out!
You Say Good-Bye, I Say Hello

A Group Photography Show featuring the work of Jenny Jimenez, Laura Musselman, and Sarah Joann Murphy, curated by Hannah Levin


What? The carefully edited collected works of three of Seattle's most prolific and talented live music photographers.


No, really, what? Jimenez, Musselman and Murphy will each be displaying a series of photos by bands either playing their last show ever (Jimenez's bold and bittersweet shots of Sleater-Kinney's final performance at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland circa 2006), or experiencing a triumphant homecoming (Musselman's exclusive shots of Death Cab For Cutie's return to the Admiral Theatre in Bremerton in early 2008, shortly after Plans had just gone platinum) or a rebirth of sorts (Murphy's vivid and intimate shots of a recharged Mudhoney unveiling The Lucky Ones at the Sunset earlier this year).

Where? Tigertail in Ballard

704 NW 65th St, Seattle, WA 98127

206-781-TAIL (8245)

When? The show will open with a casual reception at Tigertail on Thursday, August 7 from 7-10 pm, and will remain on display through September 30. Members of local band the Cops will be on the DJ decks throughout the evening, and all three photographers will be on hand to discuss their work.


Why? Local music writer and KEXP DJ Hannah Levin has collaborated with all three photographers over the last several years and simply believes their cumulative talents deserve a forum less fleeting than alt-weekly newsprint. Plus, she spends an awful lot of time at Tigertail and appreciates the opportunity to dictate the decor.
