Giveaway: Greg Laswell, Elizabeth & The Catapult [Tonight at Stubbs Indoors]

Here’s your chance to catch a couple of future mainstream pop stars on us, as Greg Laswell headlines a double bill of burgeoning singer/songwriters tonight at Stubbs indoors. On his 2008 LP Three Flights from Alto Nido, the San Diego-based Laswell manages a significant tip of his cap to Coldplay and John Mayer without sacrificing his identity entirely in the process. To date however, he’s best known for his maudlin cover of “Girls Just Want to Have Fun,” and for having his ballad “Off I Go” featured on this year’s season finale of Grey’s Anatomy.

Opening the show are Brooklyn up-and-comers Elizabeth & the Catapult, whose debut album Taller Children has them poised to expand their adoring fan base beyond New York’s biggest borough, and propel them into the hearts of the NPR set. The trio is fronted by singer/songwriter/pianist Elizabeth Ziman, a student of the soul and jazz traditions, and whose songs are reminiscent of contemporaries The Bird and the Bee and Regina Spektor. E & the C seem to have their phasers terminally set to “cute,” so expect a healthy dose of whimsy along with their set of self-described baroque pop.

Enter for your chance to win a pair of tickets to the show after the jump!
