While we experience an atmospheric river this week, dream of winning tickets to see music legends.

They’ve worn eyeball heads longer than you’ve been alive… and now The Residents are giving you a chance to see what the hell they’re up to this time. Enter to win tickets to their show in January!*

JUST ANNOUNCED

• Felix Martin playing a Hot Chip DJ set sounds like an AI-generated fever dream, but it’s real, and it’s coming to Portland on February 27.

• Gianmarco Soresi is blowing up in the comedy scene. The storytelling comic (with the sharpest jawline in stand-up) just dropped new 5 sets at Helium Comedy Club in March. Tickets might sell out, so act fast!

• Ben Quad makes emo that punches you in the heart, then buys you a beer about it. Get tickets for Hawthorne Theatre in March!

• Snow Tha Product just announced tour dates, and it’s about to get bilingual, high-velocity, and unapologetically badass. Catch the Before I Crash Out Tour in May.

• Megan Moroney is bringing the heartbreak, the glitter, and the country gold to Moda Center in August for the Cloud 9 Tour.
