Today Reverb Recommends Getting a 13-Minute Refresher on the Seattle Music Scene

Pickwick's in-studio performance at KEXP is featured in the new PBS documentary "Something in the Water."

"Something in the Water" is a new mini-documentary from director Ward Serrill that attempts to answer the question of why so much great music happens to originate in Seattle. The doc is somewhat of a disappointment in this regard--13 minutes is not nearly enough time to be able to adequately answer such a question--but it does offer a broad, if superficial, overview of the local scene, featuring interviews with industry insiders like KEXP DJ John Richards and the EMP's Jasen Emmons as well as performances by the likes of Shabazz Palaces, Pickwick, and Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.

You can watch the documentary in its entirety on the KCTS 9 website.
