Check out this video profile on one of Seattle’s musical gems, Laprell Nelson, aka Pearl Dragon. The video was produced by Gabriel Miller and Patricia O’Brien of the Seattle Channel (21), and debuted this past Thursday night on Art Zone in Studio with Nancy Guppy. Born in Eugene and raised in Skyway, his Pacific NW roots give credence to the local swell in Seattle’s music scene, hip-hop or otherwise. He has another project in the works with Phil Nelson of Kay Kay And His Weathered Underground, and you can even find a cover of the Replacements’ touching, acoustic guitar-driven “Skyway” on his MySpace.
