São Paulo natives, Johnny Franco and his Real Brother Dom, are shaking up the Portland, Oregon music scene with their charm and charisma. Serving up 5 day weekends every week, no stage is too big or too small for their iconic and hilarious brand of entertainment — including but not limited to songs
Silver Triplets of the Rio Hondo is a psychedelic Western outfit conceived by William Slater, songwriter & founding member of art-psych heavyweights Grails and current member of Black Mountain. Its sound marries sequenced synthesizer/strings, noise collage, & drum programming to a set of barrel-chested crooners, lending the songs of the Triplets an eerie camp that could live as easily on a dilapidated cruise ship as inside a honky tonk bar. Ghost ballads floating about a dystopian waypost. Jim Reeves trying to claw his way out of the Tower of Song. Extra-terrestrial highway jazz. Sci-fi roadhouse music for dissociatives.
The trio features the dreamy & toothsome embellishments of Haven Multz Matthews on skins and Christopher Cook wielding guitar leads that alternate between Bakersfield country & avant-noise in quick succession, & the samples dancing in and out of the periphery may leave an audience wondering how a sound at times so massive & strange can still feel somehow intimate.
Opening the evening’s show are The Only Living Boys, formed with Washington artists and raw talent.
