Karin Fjellman writesTonight! Don’t miss Cloudbirds and Angel Olsen at the Whistler!

Even if you’ve only got an hour or three free tonight, you’ll kick yrself later if you don’t end up going to this:

The May edition of our CHIRP-curated series features the lovely strums of Cloudbirds and the sweet croonings of Angel Olsen. Starting at 9pm tonight, stop in for free music and merriment, and buy a drink while you’re there — a portion of bar sales will benefit CHIRP! After the artists, CHIRP’s own DJ Beach Party and DJ Salinger will be spinning the finest in mid-century teen idol, lounge, and sunshine pop. As usual, we’ll be hosting a cheap raffle for some stellar prizes. Be there!
