Darrius Willrich, Wednesday, April 29: Keys-and-voice guy Darrius Willrich does grown and sexy R&B with semi-hard beats, kind of like Quiet Storm hip hop. Its a mature style, churched-up and with a jazzy edge, and takes urban sounds to warm, elegant heights. Not elegant NEW heights, mind youfemale Seattle sensation Choklate delivers similar music to audiences all across town, sometimes with Willrich on stagebut its still top-shelf soul. Its also all-local, from schooling (Willrich went to Cornish) to producing (backdrops are courtesy local guy Vitamin D, an erstwhile hip hop star) to recording (across the street from The Seattle Times, at the Woodshed on Fairview). Triple Door Mainstage, 216 Union St., 838-4333. 7:30 p.m. $25 adv., $30 dos. All ages. Note by ANDREW MATSON

Leo Kottke and Marianne Dissard made the cut too. Check out briefs and photos for our recommended shows for April 29 through May 5.
