Fugazi percussionist and filmmaker Brendan Canty was in town this Friday shooting footage for the Seattle edition of his Burn to Shine documentary series (previous cities covered include Wash-ington, D.C., Chicago, Louisville, Ky., and Portland, Ore.). The series' premise involves a handful of locally curated bands playing one song each in a building that is slated for imminent demolition. In this case, the curator was Death Cab for Cutie's Ben Gibbard, who pulled together an impressive array of local talent, including Blue Scholars, Tiny Vipers, Eddie Vedder, the Long Winters, the Can't See, Triumph of Lethargy Skinned Alive to Death, the Cave Singers, and Kinski.

When he's not songwriting, he'll be curating the "Burn to Shine 5: Seattle," one of a series of DVDs documenting indie bands playing in houses destined for demolition in their home cities.
Performers on the DVD will include Blue Scholars, Eddie Vedder, Spook the Horse, The Can't See and Gibbard.
