Mirah – w/ Anna Diem – EARLY ALL AGES SHOW!
Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn lives in Brooklyn, New York, where she works as a song writer, performer, producer and mom. In a constant dedication to expanding her tender repertoire of American folk songs into a larger context, her recordings seek to find the magical amity between explorative percussion, orchestral sounds and elements of rock and popular music. Since starting out in the late 1990’s, she has released over a dozen solo and collaborative recordings on various independent labels including K Records, Kill Rock Stars, Absolute Magnitude Recordings, Double Double Whammy and 7e.p., and toured solo and with countless iterations of her own band in concert halls, music clubs and punk basements all across North America, Japan and Europe. Mirah has dedicated her creative process to investigating the complicated intersections within communities large and small, believing that with deeper understanding of each other, the seeds of a more generous and less violent world are planted. Anna Diem is a queer, Portland OR based, self-produced alt-folk artist known for her honesty and vulnerability. Her lyrics wrap you up in a story and her calming and emotive delivery pulls you in even closer. Heavily influenced by singer-songwriters of the 60’s, Diem’s songs bring to mind artists like Neil Young, Paul Simon and James Taylor.

Twingle (album release show!) w/ The Soft Colors, DMN – 21+
Twingle is the moniker of songstress and multi instrumentalists Anna Sabatino based out of Portland, OR. Raised in a one room cabin in the small town of Evergreen, Colorado she began writing songs at young age featuring guitar and banjo. Her roots are in oldtimey folk and bluegrass, but later went on to realms of Experimental/Psychedelic/French pop which all work to cultivate her sound and melodic patterns. Her songs live somewhere in the realm of familiar but entirely unexpected. Twingle’s debut album Future Caviar coming out August 18th 2024, is a can of worms focusing on the personal lives of female writers of the 19th and 20th century. The album was recorded to tape in the garage of Anna and Eric Sabatino. Produced by their dear friend Tommy Hollywood. The Soft Colors is a Portland rock band led by Nate Wey and featuring Erik Wisloff-Menteer (former Blitzen Trapper), Rhea Morais (The Black Doors, DJ Queen Amygdala), Leah Heuser, and Kyle Cregan (Smile Pile, James Jones and the Chupacabras). The debut album Still Adventures (by Nate Wey and The Soft Colors), captures the daze and confusion of life during societal traumas (covid, climate change, break ups) – with unexpected rays of sunlight. Musically, the album lives somewhere between David Lynch and PJ Harvey, Velvet Underground and NIN. A prolific creative, Wey’s recent output includes a self-released solo album recorded during the early stages of the pandemic, an ambient piece that plays on loop at The Fair Haired Dumbbell lobby, and a music video in rotation at Hollywood Theater’s PDX Mini-plex (the only airport cinema in the country). His music has recently been licensed to Apple TV, including the final track on Still Adventures. They are currently recording a follow up E.P., tracking live in Sauvie’s Island. DMN (Default Mode Network) creates groove-forward, melody-driven dance music that bridges the gap between 80s radio-friendly new wave and contemporary leftfield pop.

Strange & the Familiars bring you songs and stories from beyond the veil, where more than monsters lurk in the shadows. Where black cats prowl, amnesiac goldfish reckon, and giant spiders weave songs of the past. Paper Gates: If you’ve heard woodwinds on a song by a Portland band in the last ten years, chances are good it was andy rayborn. While best known for his work with Night Heron and Kulululu, andy also performs alone as Paper Gates. Paper Gates features dark and powerful classically-influenced layers of bass clarinet and electronics designed to rattle both emotions and glassware. The project was recently featured at the International Clarinet Association’s inaugural Low Clarinet Festival.

“When I started writing last great american summer, I had just gotten back from my first tour. I’ve alwaystraveled a lot as a kid but going to that many places back to back put me in a very Americana space. Imet so many different people, who led such different lives from each other but would all came together forthe same songs every night. I found that really moving. So when making this song, I just wanted tocapture that feeling. I wanted to make a song that felt just as much like Washington DC, as it does to NewMexico and to Los Angeles.” – SEB
CANCELED: Ben Beal: Looking at Birds Tour- w/ Delivery Boys & Aaron Veal – All Ages
Ben Beal: Hailing from the New York burbs, Ben Beal is a versatile lyricist and hip-hop artist who showcases his talent across multiple styles of production, from the laid-back vibes of Lo-Fi to the hard-hitting beats of 808-infused trap. Starting out his musical journey by digging through dusty old jazz records in the bargain bin, Beal found his muse in the crackle and pop of those forgotten gems, transforming them into hip-hop gold.Not only has he collaborated on songs with names such as Mick Jenkins, sophie meiers, and atlas, but he continues to work with some of the most unique producers around the globe including SwuM, FloFilz, Wun Two, Biskwiq, and Beatboxbandit. He recently graduated from the University of Maryland where he recorded and performed at various locations across the DMV. Beal has performed with A Boogie Wit da Hoodie, MadeinTYO, 24hrs, PnB Rock, and many more in Maryland and Washington DC. Delivery Boys: Meet “Delivery Boys,” Brooklyn’s waviest alternative rap group, established in 2015 by founding members Max Gertler and Goldwood. The duo, originally started as delivery boys for local delis, formed the collective fueled by their shared love for hip-hop and the vibrant cultural melting pot of New York. The collective expanded the following year with the addition of members YGB and LOSTBOYBK, marking the beginning of a new chapter for the Delivery Boys. Celebrated for their electrifying live performances, their fearless genre experimentation, and their knack for innovation, their music weaves together diverse styles into a cohesive sound, a testament to their creativity and close-knit bond. Through their work, they narrate the story of friends who have grown into a family, united by their passion for hip-hop, offering listeners a vibrant and exhilarating musical journey. Aaron Veal: After refining his craft in back alley cyphers and underground circles for nearly 10 years, Brooklyn’s own Aaron Veal started releasing music at the end of 2022. Defined by his Innate lyrical ability, mesmerizing metaphors, and ear for choosing the right production to bless with his benevolent bars, the possibilities are exponential, and unforeseeable when he assembles a record. A true student of music, his background as a metal and jazz drummer awards him the flexibility to impart many different flows to his records, and even occasionally rap in odd time signatures. His debut single “Pagliacci” marked the beginning of a new era of his music including a much more personal touch, and a concentrated attention to detail. He followed it up with similar singles “Benefactor” and “Celleno” the latter being a collaborative effort with Producer SpookyStack that they created while on vacation in the Italian countryside. There’s no telling what’s on the horizon for this talented young emcee, but rest assur
