Besides being a fantastic local producer whoโ€™s worked with the likes of THEESatisfaction, Shabazz Palaces, and the Moondoggies, Erik Blood is also a talented musician. Last year, his super-sexy (literally, itโ€™s about porn) solo release Touch Screens was one of the few albums everyone at The Stranger could agree was great. That doesnโ€™t happen often! And strangely, when it does, itโ€™s often regarding albums Blood has had something to do withโ€”THEESatisfaction and Shabazz Palaces are Stranger Genius finalists and award winners, respectively. Donโ€™t miss your chance to see a man who makes sonic magic. (Vera Project, Seattle Center, theveraproject.org, 7:30 pm, $11, all ages)
