In Medieval times, a printer's devil was an apprentice in a printing establishment. Early printing was long associated with devilry; and printers were believed to be practitioners of the Black Arts. Over time, the apprentice came to be called The Printer's Devil.
Local printers Florence Ashford, Anthony Lukens, and Trish Martin will be presenting the fruits of their Bay Park Press apprenticeships tonight from 6 to 9 p.m. as The Printer's Devils makes its debut.
The show, featuring works of letterpress, linocuts, and intaglio will run from June 12 to July 18 at Bay Park Press (4138 Napier Street). The gallery is open Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Check out Bay Park's site for more information.

The Antlers' lo-fi house recordings have taken over my life lately. Their sound and lyrics are brutally honest. The Brooklyn-based, one time solo project of Peter Silberman have recently signed to French Kiss Records and are currently tourning the US. Come out to Bar Pink tomorrow night and check 'em out.

There is something really calming and sexy about light from the television on bare skin. I gotta say, Caroline Polachek's got it down in Chairlift's new video for Bruises. It all leads up to none other than a climactic game of spin the bottle.

The Modlins have been locked away working on a bunch of new songs and will be bringing them all out at once tonight at Whistle Stop in celebration of their new record, Where Does It End? Writer and Hot TV open and as always, it's free. Show up at 9 to snag a good spot - it's going to be a full house!

We had another rad time at Thread Show this year, thanks to everyone for coming out and making tees with us! Here's a little photo re-cap of our weekend at Wonderhaus. Keep your eyes peeled for sezio owls and dreamcatchers around town.
