BEST CANNABIS SHOPS IN PDX

Portland has long been a haven for cannabis enthusiasts, offering a vibrant mix of dispensaries that reflect the city’s eclectic charm and progressive spirit. With 4/20 coming up, we thought it would be a good time to highlight some of our faves.

THIS WEEK

🌊 Youth Lagoon

Tonight @ Aladdin Theater (7PM)

If you’ve been sleeping on Trevor Powers’ kaleidoscopic brainchild, consider this your wake-up call. Youth Lagoon isn’t just music; it’s a séance of soundscapes, a mixtape for your existential crises, and a love letter to the haunted corners of Americana.

🎧 Joker + Commodo

Tonight @ The Den (9PM)

Ready to dive headfirst into a bass-heavy vortex of sound? Joker’s beats are so lush and hypnotic, they practically drip off the speakers. And Commodo? The guy’s a wizard who can make your soul vibrate with his gritty, genre-defying basslines.

🎶 Humbird

Tonight @ Mississippi Studios (7PM)

Humbird takes folk music, tosses it in a blender with indie rock, jazz, and electronica, and serves up something that’s as unpredictable as it is unforgettable.

🪩 Wax Tailor

Tomorrow @ Wonder Ballroom (7PM)

Wax Tailor isn’t just a DJ or a producer—he’s the cinematic mastermind behind your next auditory obsession. Think of him as the Quentin Tarantino of turntables, slicing up vintage vinyl and stitching it back together with threads of hip-hop, jazz, soul, and electronica.

🎤 Stereophonics

Tomorrow @ Crystal Ballroom (7PM)

Indie rock legends Stereophonics have been cranking out anthems for over three decades, and somehow, they’re still making us feel like we’re 18 and invincible. Hear a sneak peek of their upcoming album, Make 'Em Laugh, Make 'Em Cry, Make 'Em Wait.
