This Venue is proud to participate in the 2023 2nd Annual Portland Music Month. This ticket includes a donation to MusicOregon’s Echo Fund, which provides creative project grants for local independent musicians. Your check-in at the show will also enter you in a sweepstakes to win prizes! BABERS is a dark pop duo in PDX (via LA) fronted by Dana Cargioli & Lisa Haagen. Soft spoken lyrics open the songs like a conversation, but then build to reveal the furthest limits of their individual vocal ranges. Their live show unlocks the brighter side of their moody writing; they are simultaneously heavy & hopeful. Their debut album, Making It Up, is now available on all streaming platformsShy Honey is an up and coming electro pop band out of Portland, OR formed in 2019 by lead singer and local Portland singer-songwriter, Anna Gilbert. Shy Honey’s music features epic, reverberant guitars and moody keys with a “prom night” desperation. The music is upbeat, dark and dance worthy with a subtle nod to the sounds that defined music of the 80s and 90s. Gilbert’s honey-dripped vocals float over synthy pop keys and catchy guitar riffs. Both modern and retro, catchy and experimental, Shy Honey is putting a spin on electro pop in a fresh way, garnering the attention of their hometown music community. The band played their debut show to a sold-out Doug Fir Lounge in Portland, OR. Two days later, they were asked to open for a People’s Choice Award nominated podcast, “Off the Vine” hosted by Kaitlyn Bristowe (former Bachelorette) at a sold out Aladdin Theater.

Gwythaints (album release!), Smokey Brights (EP release!), Laryssa Birdseye – 21+

This Venue is proud to participate in the 2023 2nd Annual Portland Music Month. This ticket includes a donation to MusicOregon’s Echo Fund, which provides creative project grants for local independent musicians. Your check-in at the show will also enter you in a sweepstakes to win prizes! When you’re a sheltered prairie kid, nothing is cooler than your best friend’s biker dad’s pagan girlfriend reading aloud to you from epic fantasy books based on Welsh mythology over extended camping trips under the stars on the rocky shores of Puget Sound. That’s where Adam Sweeney first heard about the Gwythaints—fearsome birds that served as the all-seeing eyes of the dark lord in Lloyd Alexander’s Chronicles of Prydain. When he found his band emerging from the ashes of the pandemic with a new record and a cinematic alt rock sound, the name just fit. Leading into 2020 Sweeney’s old band The Breaking had been at the height of its powers. They were sharing stages with bands like Rubblebucket, The Sherlocks, Avi Buffalo, Aaron Lee Tasjan, Floater, Lemolo and The Stone Foxes. They had just made a record with a production team of Grammy award winners and nominees—including producer Patrick Tetrault (Laura Gibson, The Features) mix engineer Craig Alvin (Kacey Musgraves, Kathleen Edwards) and mastering engineer Pete Lyman (Weezer, Brandi Carlile)—that launched them into new sonic territory. But then Covid-19 happened, tours were canceled and their record never saw the light of day. That band has evolved. They are now Gwythaints! Wall-of-guitar alt-rock power meets cinematic pop production lyrically charged with poetic angst. Smokey Brights are releasing a raw and emotional collection of rock songs entitled Broken Too. The Broken Too EP is a collection of songs about feeling fractured in an increasingly fragmented world, as well as finding ways to reconstruct oneself and move forward. This short collection of songs encompasses Smokey Brights heaviest, most playful, and most introspective material to date. A limited run of ten inch vinyl records of Broken Too will be available at the show.

Crystal Quartez, Gemini Moon, Asa Nakagawa, Antemano – 21+

Masks encouraged by request of the artists.Crystal Quartez is a multimedia artist who’s work focuses on redirecting modern technology toward sacred relationality. They create “Restorative Noise” by organizing drones and rhythms of mechanical life, natural voices, and digital timbres into a texture rich electronic dance music. These complex sonic realms are windows into shared networks of reality, often separated by borders, time, and perception. Recently, their work has involved collecting live biodata from plants and static data from climate change, to translate these numbers and electrical impulses into sound.Gemini Moon is the solo project of multimedia artist Jen Tam. It is a reflection of the past, ancestral secrets and release, and time spent and lost in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Using digital elements, live loops and vocal sampling, Gemini Moon builds a nostalgic soundscape reminiscent of 90s r&b radio jams with a wash of noise. Asa Nakagawa is an intuitive player and self-taught experimental, ambient, electronic musician who began their practice in the early 2010s. Originally hailing from Los Angeles, Asa has lived in the Pacific Northwest and is currently based in Philly. They have used a variety of equipment over the years, but have a penchant for grooveboxes and FM synthesis. Under the moniker Polydactyl, they make more beat-driven and techno tracks. Aside from writing electronic music, they DJ, field record, and make visual art spanning disciplines. Asa released their debut EP “Hex on You” in April 2021, and they are currently writing and recording their first full length record. Antemano is Ruben Dario, a Puerto Rican musician and writer living in Portland, Oregon. His music can be called Industrial-Pop, or rather a mix of the Synth-Pop’s gloss with the Post-Industrial’s distorted and malleable edges. He’s been self-releasing tapes in small editions since 2018 under different aliases until deciding on the name Antemano on his 2019 EP, his first digital release. In 2020 he followed with another EP called Vertebra. And in 2021 he was published in the compilation Medicine for a Nightmare as a musician and as a writer. Said compilation got a featured article in The Wire’s November Issue of the same year. https://antemano.bandcamp.com/
