We're stoked to announce a special giveaway featuring the one and only Sir  Chloe. Win tickets for your chance to dive into their electrifying world of sound and style on November 2.*

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Puma Blue makes music for late-night unraveling, and he's finally touring again.
    Get tickets to hear dreamy falsetto and jazz-stained guitar in February.

  • Kathleen Edwards writes songs like she’s eavesdropping on your inner monologue. She returns to Wonder Ballroom with more bruised folk-rock and sharp lyrics.

  • Yung Kai is the kind of rapper you hear once and immediately Google.
    Catch him in March at Wonder Ballroom to brag about it later.

  • The Record Company makes blues-rock that punches like a bar fight and grooves like a vinyl spin. Get tickets for the Give It Back To You 10th Anniversary Tour on March 19.

  • Alice Phoebe Lou sounds like moonlight in human form. Hear jazz-soaked indie and cosmic folk during the Oblivion Tour in April at Aladdin Theater.

WIN STUFF WEDNESDAY

We’re giving away tickets to shows your friends will swear they discovered first. From sold-out shows to holiday performances, this week’s list is stacked—and your name deserves to be on it. Enter once, win big, and let fate do her chaotic little dance.

THIS WEEK

🎶 Maroon 5

Tomorrow @ Moda Center (8PM)

Maroon 5 is taking over Moda Center this week. Whether you’re in it for the throwbacks, the falsetto, or the unexplainable grip “Sugar” has on your soul, they’re bringing the pop spectacle Portland deserves.

🎤 Grandson

Tomorrow @ Crystal Ballroom (8PM)

Grandson is lighting up the Crystal with righteous fury on the Inertia Tour. Get tickets for rage-fueled alt rock, hip-hop grit, industrial glitch, and electronic chaos.

🎸 Spafford

Tomorrow & Friday @ The Get Down (8PM)

Spafford is throwing down two nights of jam wizardry. Zero setlists. Infinite grooves. If you’re into face-melting improv and dancing 'til your calves give out, you already know not to miss this.

😂 Guy Branum

Tomorrow @ Mississippi Studios (9PM)

Guy Branum is bringing big gay brilliance to the mic. Sharp. Queer. Unapologetically brainy. If you like your stand-up with a law degree and a pop culture edge, this is your night.

🔊 The Tallest Man On Earth

Tomorrow @ Revolution Hall (8PM)

The Tallest Man On Earth is back to break your heart beautifully. Raw folk, fingerpicking wizardry, and lyrics that feel like diary entries from a Swedish ghost.

LOCALS ONLY

  • The pumpkin bins at the grocery store are mostly empty, and the Christmas trees are starting to appear. It will soon be time to attend the Portland Holiday Market at the Portland Expo Center in November and enjoy the gift-giving buzz.

  • The European Bazaar and Portland Bazaar were also just announced! The free markets run at the end of November and for the second and third weekends in December.

Song of the day: Spring - Rites of Spring
