hiphop

James Pants at Nectar

James Pants is a producer from Spokane. James Pants recently released a solid hiphop/new wave/soul album, Welcome, on Stones Throw Records. How in the world did a person from Spokane get signed to one of the most influential underground labels in hiphop? Pants's explanation: "In Spokane, rent is very, very cheap and so James Pants can afford to buy records and not work too awfully hard." (Nectar, 412 N 36th St, 632-2020. 6 pm, free–$20, 21+.)
