Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head (NPSH) played on the Broad Street Stage located right in front of the Space Needle Saturday afternoon. Comprised of 5 members, four male and one female, NPSH’s set was energy packed. Fueled by bouncy drums and driven by the undertone of the keyboards, NPSH‘s synth-infused rock is a dance party waiting to happen. On display was NPSH’s versatile approach to vocals, just about every song had a different lead singer. This creates a refreshing experience as the audience never became jaded; every song sounded different than the one before it. NPSH is not only a thrilling audio experience, but visually they are constantly changing instruments and positions on stage.

Being a band from around the Seattle area, NPSH’s fans came out to support them. The crowd was littered throughout with people who were flailing their arms and kicking their feet in a motion that could be constituted as dancing. An air-inflated turtle balloon, provided by NPSH, got thrown into the crowd and random people were called upon to keep it afloat as it surfed above the crowd for the majority of their set. NPSH‘s quick, witty, and dry sense of humor led to many moments of spontaneous laughter from the crowd.
