JUST ANNOUNCED

  • It’s World Vegan Month, and Portland’s going full plant-powered with dozens of spots slinging vegan specials all November long.*

  • Get ready to levitate in slow motion when the Bitchin Bajas take over Polaris Hall in February.

  • Piri & Tommy make drum & bass for the softies. Glittery breakbeats, flirty vocals, and just enough chaos to make it a party. Join in at Polaris Hall in March.

UPCOMING COMEDY SHOWS

This season’s comedy calendar is stacked with heavy hitters and rising chaos agents alike. Lucas Zelnick brings finance bro energy and an existential crisis, Iliza Shlesinger mixes sharp stand-up with sharper side-eye, and Jim Norton says the things your brain won’t even let you think. Nurse Blake is diagnosing pure comedy mayhem, while Tanael Joachim delivers smooth punchlines with serious bite. And that’s just the beginning.

THIS WEEK

🎤 Peter McPoland

Tonight @ Wonder Ballroom (8PM)

Started in his bedroom, now he’s breaking hearts on tour. Peter McPoland makes indie rock with Broadway bones and pop-punk feelings.

🎸 Bar Italia

Tonight @ Aladdin Theater (9PM)

Bar Italia delivers woozy guitars, deadpan vocals, and that perfect mix of cool, cryptic, and crushing tonight. It’s post-punk for people who romanticize awkward silences.

✂️ Cut Copy

Tomorrow @ Wonder Ballroom (8PM)

Cut Copy practically invented the soundtrack to 2008. Neon synths, disco sweat, and enough emotional pull to make your old MySpace page cry.

🫧 Smallpools

Tomorrow @ Polaris Hall (9PM)

Smallpools is the perfect indie-pop for windows-down joyrides. Don’t miss the Lovetap 10th anniversary tour.

🎙️ Lady Wray

Tomorrow @ Aladdin Theater (9PM)

Lady Wray sings like every note’s got a story. Vintage soul, hip-hop grit, and a voice that could knock you over or lift you up — depending on her mood.
