PORTLAND FRUIT TREE PROJECT BENEFIT SHOW ft. Ruune, Femme Cell, Culture Cat, Second Half Walters

Portland Fruit Tree Project is a grassroots 501(c)(3) non-profit gleaning organization that provides a community-based solution to a critical and growing need in Portland and beyond: access to healthy food and the benefits provided by trees including cleaner air, shade, and food. By empowering neighbors to share in the harvest and care of urban fruit trees, they are preventing waste, building community knowledge and resources, and creating sustainable ways to obtain healthy, locally-grown food. Ruune is a multidisciplinary performance artist who builds worlds and connections via ritual tools. Employing glitch sounds and acoustics, Ruune draws from a wide variety of genres ranging from pop to experimental and changes the tone of an environment from set to set. With music releases on both Dollhouse Lighting, Fake Four INC, and over a decade of touring experience they seek to craft wonderment and texture in the air. The Second Half Walters are an indie punk band from Portland, OR. They released their debut EP, Prescience, in September of 2023 featuring energetic songs, with big dynamic shifts and poppy melodies, backed up with grit and speed. Thematically, the band's music is centered around attempts to feel grounded while processing their journey through the human experience. The lineup: Bobby Naughton on lead vocals and guitar, Ben Goldberg on lead guitar, Nic Castillon on drums, Adam Ruhl on keyboard/guitar/auxiliaries, and Dylan Nanney on bass. Culture Cat is a queer art pop band from Portland, OR. Their diverse and eclectic sound ranges from sparkling jazzy pop to booty-shakin' swing to spooky pop-punk. Embrace the weird, and enjoy the party! Femme Cell is an amalgam of dreampop, shoegaze, and psychosis rock that subsists on themes of melancholy, ecstasy, and angst.
