October 24, 2025

This one goes out to the girlies who used to write Wattpad fanfic about British musicians.

Indie darlings Lovejoy are crossing the pond with jangly guitars, messy feelings, and an army of fans who know every lyric by heart.

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Gary Gulman is proof that being the tallest guy in the room also makes you the sharpest. Don’t miss longform laughs and neurotic brilliance at Aladdin Theater.

  • Whitney Hanson writes the kind of poems you wish you’d texted first. Raw, romantic, and relentlessly honest—she’s taking her heartbreak gospel on the road. Hear it live at Hawthorne Theatre in January.

  • Sons of Legion sound like classic rock got dragged through the dirt (in a good way). Bluesy riffs and gritty vocals will take over Hawthorne Theatre in March.

  • Maggie Lindemann’s dark pop and “don’t text me ever again” energy is coming to Revolution Hall in March. Come scream it out with her.

  • Pat Metheny’s back on tour, still bending strings and brains. Get tickets for jazz wizardry and solos that sound like dreams half-remembered in April.

FREE STUFF FRIDAY

Get spooky without spending a dime. We’ve rounded up the best free Halloween events in town—think costume contests, haunted markets, outdoor movies, concerts, and ghost stories that may or may not be true. No tickets, no tricks, just treats.

THIS WEEKEND

🎷 Makaya McCraven

Tomorrow @ The Get Down (8PM)

Live jazz meets beat science with Makaya McCraven. Come for the grooves, stay for the spiritual whiplash.

🎤 sombr

Tomorrow @ Theater of the Clouds (8PM)

sombr makes music that feels like floating through your own memories. The young artist went viral on TikTok and hasn’t looked back.

📣 Miki Berenyi Trio

Tomorrow @ Mississippi Studios (9PM)

The Miki Berenyi Trio brings angular jazz, prog detours, and improv that lives on the edge of chaos to Mississippi Studios.

🔥 Jeffrey Foucault

Sunday @ Mississippi Studios (8PM)

Jeffrey Foucault writes songs like they’ve been sitting in the back of your soul for years. Dusty Americana, worn-in poetry, and a voice that sounds like old leather and late nights. Come hear the truth, with twang.

🗡️ Murder By Death

Sunday @ Revolution Hall (7PM)

Murder by Death makes gothic Americana for the end of the world (pay attention). Spaghetti Western strings, cavernous vocals, and songs that feel like haunted saloons.

LOCALS ONLY

  • Make your event the main character of the holiday season. Thanksgiving feasts, ugly sweater ragers, NYE blowouts—DoPDX puts your event, show, or promo in front of thousands of locals who live to do stuff—and we’ll help make sure they do yours.

Song of the day: Ginger - Lilys
