Last time Rainbow Girls dropped by Tsunami was March, 2023, when they performed 2 Sold-Out Shows. We worked a deal with them at last Summer’s Country Fair: one long show, two sets, seating limited to 90. This is a rare treat for those of us who love RBG. They have just returned from a long tour of sold-out shows in Europe. After this they’re headed for Australia. To have them here in this little Bookstore is one of the most exciting moments of the 5000+ Events we have hosted.

To commemorate the evening, beloved muralist and Northwest artist Ila Rose will paint a live painting

Please join us.

California indie band, Rainbow Girls, is known for their haunting harmonies, powerful songwriting, and unfiltered yet poised stage presence. Their live show is an unforgettable, one-of-a-kind experience that will make you both laugh and cry.

The band met in Southern California and formed at a weekly open mic night they hosted in their college house — known as Rainbow House. They spent their first few summers as a band, busking & couch-surfing across Europe on one-way plane tickets.

In 2016, Erin Chapin, Caitlin Gowdey, & Vanessa May pivoted toward a raw, stripped-down acoustic sound, performing around a single condenser mic. This spotlighted their intricate harmonies and cemented their place in the roots music scene. Since then, their blend of provocative charm and musical precision has earned them a cult following across the US and Europe, thanks in part to a viral rise on social media.

Their latest album, HAUNTING (2024), is both a sonic evolution and a bold reclamation. As Chapin puts it:
“The concept for this album came about from the word ‘haunting’ itself, which is the most common adjective people use when describing female harmonies. But what is it about female harmonies that make people want to describe them as ‘haunting?’ It’s because they’re powerful. And if a woman is powerful, then she must be a witch. She must be otherworldly or special because a regular woman couldn’t possibly be powerful on her own. We are reclaiming the word ‘haunting’ to describe our power – the power we find in reckoning with our trauma, grief, loss, and fear.”

The album dives deep into that reckoning - layered with grief and resilience, it’s an intimate yet expansive collection of songs that shine a light on the transformative nature of pain and the strength that grows from it. It’s Rainbow Girls at their most raw, most refined, and most powerful.
