The Oregonian/OregonLive launched a new live streaming music show Thursday. The first show featured singer, songwriter and artist Isabel Zacharias.
Babytooth, Zacharias’ full-band project, draws from melodic early-aughts indie rock, while her solo work situates itself between lyric-driven folk and Casiotone bedroom pop. Babytooth’s first EP cassette, “Thataway,” was released by Portland’s Bud Tapes imprint in 2020 to positive reception from OPB Music and others, and Zacharias’ first solo effort is forthcoming with the tape label Antiquated Future in 2021.
“Thataway” is available for purchase at the Bud Tapes Bandcamp page, where a new Babytooth full-length is also set to appear whenever bands can record together in person again.

A Christmas Carol: A Radio Play
It wouldn’t be Christmas in Washington without the music-infused adaptation of Charles Dickens’ Yuletide classic that Ford’s Theatre has presented annually for over 30 years. Although a run of live performances of the full stage production isn’t possible in 2020 due to the pandemic, the historic venue has found a way to ensure the hopeful and inspiring tale still gets as wide an airing as possible through a new partnership with WAMU 88.5.
