An important read from co-owner of Mississippi Studios about what makes our venues here in Portland so unique and what we can do to support them now...they may be the last to open, if they even survive.

This @portlandmercury guest editorial by Jim Brunberg of @mississippistudios and @revolutionhall is a MUST READ. It’s a love letter to Oregon’s venues and a call to action to protect them. Oregon is unique in that ALL our venues are independent, not run by a corporate conglomerate. If that matters to us, we need to act. Read at the link in bio. And if you don’t have time to read, here’s how to act: 1. “Write love notes to your representatives (state and federal) about how important these venues are to you. Letters do matter!” 2. “Visit your favorite venue’s website and see what they need.” MusicPortland has compiled a Venue Relief Directory for Portland’s independent venues. Link in bio! 3. Support the Independent Venue Coalition. #strongertogether #pdxmusic #pdxvenues

Quarantine Record Club returneth with two of our favorite humans and musicians: Cole and Bambi of PDX’s own Reptaliens (and a rad new electronic project you’ll be hearing about soon). You can find the Reps—and their gorgeous hand-painted album covers—over at reptaliens.bandcamp.com. We are very into their pick, the sonically transfixing ‘Saturn Over Sunset’ from LA’s Midnight Sister. Find the band at midnightsister.bandcamp.com and as always: If you have the means and love these tunes, support these artists! See ya tomorrow! #quarantinerecordclub

Next up on #livefromtherosecity 🌹📡🌹 A well traveled touring act with a strong cult following in PDX, @ezrabell brings a sound that is simultaneously inspiring & melancholy. Carving a wide path through the musical spectrum, typical genre descriptions don’t do this band justice. Tune into our IG + FB pages this Friday night to hear for yourselves!

TONIGHT at 7pm PST! Tune in as @yokingsleymusic takes over our IG + FB for this week's edition of #livefromtherosecity 🌹📡🌹 Tips are graciously accepted at the artist's virtual tip jars, and you can grab music or merch (oh ya she got fannypacks!) at her website.
