This soon coming album is going to be a big hit. Simply pleasant piano driven pop. Head on over to their MySpace page and let them know that we sent you.
Ben Darwish Trio - Ode To Consumerism
Simply one of our favorite Jazz players and composers. Ode To Consumerism is a splendid album, and if you are a lover of the genre, a must for your collection.
The Wanteds - Failure Looks So Good
This is one of my (Jake) favorite albums right now. Good straight forward rock produced by this band fronted by Tommy Harrington. Go check our concert review and head on over to The Wanteds' site to get your hands on this great new album.
Fernando Viciconte - True Instigator
Absolutely exemplary rock. Equal parts of old school splendor and high energy pop. Head on over to Fernando Viciconte's website and check out the new album.
Chris Harris - Self Titled Album
We loved this new album from Chris Harris. Make sure to head to his site and get your hands on one of his CDs.
Chris Robley And The Fear Of Heights - Movie Theatre Haiku (a Masque of Backwards Ballads, a Picturesque Burlesque)
Go check out this great rock band from Portland. We promise you it will be a taste of a little something different. You'll have to hear to believe.
Not An Airplane - Everything Is Not Loveable

Oh Darling - Nice Nice
We gave this new foursome from Portland our highest marks. A must have album for any music lover.
Right On John - Son of Black
We just got the chance to see Right On John play at the White Eagle and have been absolutely loving the new album. If you're looking for some good kick you in the ass rock and blues then you need to do yourself the favor of picking up his new album.
Tango Alpha Tango - Rebel Son's of Cowboys
Good solid Alternative Rock. The new album won't disappoint. Make sure to check out our review and head on over to Tango Alpha Tango's Myspace page.
The Gentry - Sex by the Unit
This new album from the local Electronica/Experimental/Pop act is certainly worth taking a look at. You'll dig the album cover for sure, and the music inside is stuff you can't help but shake your ass to.
Blind Pilot and The Builders and the Butchers will be gracing the stage tonight at the Crystal Ballroom. We're not going to be there in an official fashion, but a bunch of the LiveMusicPDX crew will be attending. We'll be enjoying some good beer and amazing music. This quite simply stands to be one of the better line ups you are going to see all year. If you are going to be wandering around the Music Fest North West circuit this weekend or plan on attending this show or any other great shows going on this week, please send us your pictures so we can get them up on the website and let the world know what they are missing. If you see us roaming around, let us know and maybe we'll tip a pint with you. Hope you all are looking forward to some great music! You can send your photos to
