Saturday, Jan. 8: The Buddha Magoo

The Buddha Magoo

Here, my dear reader, is what I have been able to determine about the Buddha Magoo via harried research of what little exists in reference to the band: (1) they have a silly name, (2) they are a supergroup of Olympia experimental folk veterans with a purported 175 years of combined performing experience and (3) ... well, that's actually good enough for me. Those familiar with the Olympia music scene may best recognize Buddha Magoo singer and guitarist Danny Kelly. His two-decade stint as the frontman for similarly folk-inflected, politically conscious Heliotroupe earned him a modest but enthusiastic fanbase, which will surely carry over into the life of the Buddha Magoo. If nothing else, the Buddha Magoo will serve as a crash course in Olympia music, which is no small potatoes, folks.
