Play/Start

Saturday May 19th @ 9:00pm

play/start is a group of four queer musicians who came together with the intent of making music that culls from all of their collected musical experiences and influences. Pop, metal, blues, dance, new wave, garage punk and riot grrrl are just some of the terms that have been used to describe their music. And, somehow, they all seem to fit together to create hot, danceable power pop music. Their on-stage energy is contagious, turning any show into a dance party.

Upbeat High Energy African Marimba Bands. The supadupa marimba bros are a group of dynaimic young men, mostly in high school, who play enthusiastic up-beat music on african-style xylophones, called marimbas. the ensemble is set up like a choir, with bass, baritone, tenor and soprano ranged instruments. the music mostly originates in zimbabwe but the group also has some original tunes composed by their leader, eric miller, but based on original ideas of some of the members, as well as a few covers of popular tunes by artists such as the beatles. the supadupa marimba bros started off at a school in nw portland called the metropolitan learning center (mlc), where miller teaches marimba as an elective. after a couple of years, the boys went off to different schools but the band stayed together. now in their fourth year of performing, the supadupa marimba bros are sounding better than ever, adding traditional zimbabwean vocals and percussion to the mix. “we are a dynamic outfit and we are ready to rock your world.”

Guitarist Gerald Love and bassist Duncan Ros have been playing music together in Portland for the past ten years, making several attempts to collaborate and perform and record separately as solo artists. After making a resolution to play together simply due to creative necessity, the duo quickly found Nick Mentillo, a drummer fresh from the east coast. The three have been industriously working on an EP, and our performing locally as The Charlie Darwins.

Travis Larson Band

Thursday April 19th @ 9:00pm

Travis Larson Band, cover charge

Thursday April 19th @ 9:00pm

With six records and two full-length performance DVDs, the award winning Travis Larson Band is firmly rooted as one of instrumental music’s premiere acts, having worked on record with Steve Lukather (Toto), Victor Wooten (Bela Fleck), Dave LaRue (Joe Satriani, John Petrucci, Dixie Dregs), Vinx (Sting, Herbie Hancock) and having shared live billing with Ted Nugent, Los Lobos, Steve Morse (Deep Purple, Kansas), Ronnie Montrose and Bill Bruford (King Crimson), to name a few. 2009 saw the band on tour with UFO and industry events such as Guitar Player Live and Bass Player Live.

Comprised of Travis Larson (guitar), Jennifer Young (bass), and Dale Moon (drums), TLB’s complicated phrasing, impossible timing, and seamless flow cause some to suspect that the band must surely operate from only one, albeit enormous, brain.

Alexa Wildish (Voice and Mandolin)  has been studying music her whole life. A passion for singing began while taking classical opera voice lessons when she was 8 as well as being part of a very musical family. She then studied several forms of music in order to create her own self expression. She is grateful to be working with such a talent as Jessica Campbell and hopes to bring this music to the hungry souls in this world. Jessica Campbell (Voice and Piano) is originally from small town, Portville, New York.  Coming from a theatrical, musical family, she has been blessed to perform, tour and learn from them throughout her life. She started writing at the age of 15 in the open ballrooms of hotels while on tour for a theatrical production, and has wanted to pursue music in this form, but has been waiting to find her people….and that people is Alexa Wildish.
Robert Richter is a guitarist and inidependent music producer. He joins the duo tonight.
