Spokane is home to a lot of really talented artists and designers. We’ve interviewed a few of them before. Add Chris Bovey to the list of artists that don’t suck in Spokane. His locally-inspired prints are currently available for $20 a pop at Atticus downtown. Your wall could be cooler than it is, after all.
The Whobewhatzit: Five Reasons Spokane needs to get over its inferiority complex
Okay, so I know I’ve neglected this blog in a huge way, and for that I am sorry, but an event has happened this week in Spokane that has highlighted something that I feel needs to be addressed rather quickly, and that is Spokane’s inferiority complex. Now, I knew upon moving here that this complex…

Spokane: Meet Volume 2013
If you missed Volume last year… well you missed what may have been the best night of the year.
The Inlander just posted (some of) the line up for this year’s Volume, Spokane’s biggest local music block party, and it looks fantastic.
Volume doesn’t suck. At all.
You don’t have to agree with the fact that we think Instagram doesn’t suck, but bringing Spokanites together to showcase how much Spokane doesn’t suck to the world via Instagram… that’s objectively cool.
So mark your calendars. Who’s in?
Spokane’s own Gonzaga Bulldogs don’t suck. And they’ve given Spokane a lot of good love in the media this March Madness season.
Go Zags. Keep not sucking.
There is a whole lot of music coming out of Spokane these days that doesn’t suck. One example of many is this new single from Marshall McLean, called Sinking Ships. This song really doesn’t suck.
Marshall is playing with Sandpoint’s Cedar and Boyer tonight at downtown Spokane’s Boots Bakery at 8pm. It’s bound to be good.
Like so many things in Spokane, something that was merely an idea a few months ago is a (very cool) reality today.
The Great PNW has locally designed and inspired clothing, accessories, stickers and prints available for sale on their brand new website, www.thegreatpnw.com.
The site doesn’t suck. Their merch doesn’t suck. Do it.
