A Music Lover’s Guide To Seattle: 8 High Notes Not To Miss
16.12.2023 - 16:51 / forbes.com
When it comes to the best cities for music lovers, Seattle strikes a chord like few others. It gives travelers a taste of its obsession with music the moment they arrive at Sea-Tac airport, which has live performances from up to four different artists every day.
As the birthplace of legendary rocker Jimi Hendrix and the entire genre of grunge, Seattle is steeped in musical heritage. But its contemporary live music scene is as vibrant as ever. More than 80 clubs and venues in Seattle regularly host performances from major bands and emerging talent.
Music in Seattle isn’t just limited to shows, though. It’s an immersive experience that lets travelers wander through iconic recording studios, watch DJs work one of the country’s most famous radio stations, sip music-inspired wine, and sleep in a suite themed around Seattle’s most famous record label: Sub Pop.
Get swept up in the sounds of the city on your next visit. Here are some of Seattle’s top musical experiences for travelers.
Wander through music history on a tour of London Bridge Studio, where acclaimed albums like Pearl Jam’s “TEN,” Alice in Chains’ “Jar of Flies,” and Soundgarden’s “Louder Than Love,” were recorded. The hourlong immersion will give you a behind-the-scenes look at how the studio helps artists achieve their unique sound.
You’ll get to step inside the vocal booth where Eddie Vedder sang, see the piano used in Dave Matthews Band’s “When I’m Wear,” and sit inside the control room with the crown jewel of the studio: a 1974 analog Neve console.
But perhaps the most interesting spot is the wall in the lobby. It's collaged from floor-to-ceiling with rare photos, letters, doodles, and memorabilia from the famous musicians who’ve spent time here over the last four decades.
For travelers who love music, one of the coolest places to visit in Seattle is KEXP. The Seattle Center headquarters of one of the world’s most influential listener-supported music radio stations is home to more than just audio and video broadcast studios—it also offers a gathering space that’s open to the public as part of its mission to bring together a community of music lovers.
Inside the hub, you can grab a coffee from Caffe Vita, grow your vinyl collection at Light in the Attic Record Shop, check out art installations, and chill out at one of the cozy couches in the industrial-cool space. While it has a lounge feel, KEXP is indeed a working radio station. A window in the space lets visitors watch DJs work live on air.
KEXP regularly hosts live musical performances in its twinkling indoor performance space (you may have seen it before on KEXP’s “Live on KEXP” on YouTube). The free shows get you up close to an intimate performance from top artists, along with a

Coastal Washington’s Seabrook Is A Cutting-Edge, Old-Fashioned Town
On the face of it, Seabrook, a small town 2.5 hours from Seattle (and about the same distance from Portland) on a bluff overlooking the rugged Washington coast, is a quaint collection of 500 houses, a few casual restaurants, and a very chill vibe. But what seems to be an edenic vacation spot on a dramatic bluff is also a thoughtful, intentional community designed to take the best elements of pre-20th-century urban design and bring them forward to the 21st century. Founder Casey Roloff, who’s as unpretentious a CEO as they come, is the mastermind behind this concept, which has made it possible for many homeowners without infinite pockets to attain the unattainable: life in a picture-perfect beach town.
