Scherler Sundays Highlights 6: Hot Pursuit of Happiness, LAKE, Kelsey Magnuson

Low Profile with Markly Morrison

This is the sixth installment of highlights from the Scherler Sunday’s concert series earlier this summer. We’ll be hearing interviews and three songs each from Hot Pursuit of Happiness, my old friends LAKE, and Kelsey Magnuson. The first two sets were recorded on July 24th, and Kelsey’s set is from July 31st of this year, all recorded in front of an audience behind the Historic Carnegie Library in Olympia. If you want to hear the complete sets and unedited versions of the interviews, it will be available via Patreon.com/lowprofileHot Pursuit of Happiness is the current songwriting project from improvising keyboardist Thollem McDonas. We talk about his expansive practice in improvised and composed music, his activist anti-war stance, and share some laughs. LAKE is no stranger to Low Profile, but this is the first time everyone has been on the show together. It also marks my first performance with them since the group’s ten year anniversary, such a fun time! Kelsey Magnuson is an Olympia transplant from Nebraska whose new band has been making a big impression in the local scene with solid, thoughtful rock and roll music.Find music from Thollem and Hot Pursuit of Happiness at www.Thollem.comFind LAKE’s music at www.laketheband.comFind Kelsey Magnuson’s music at kelseymagnuson.bandcamp.com
