Summer Shows on the City Hall Lawn

Summer Shows on the City Hall Lawn

Our second annual Summer Show Series was a rousing success! More than 800 people pulled up a piece of lawn and enjoyed locally grown music--right on the steps of City Hall!

We were lucky to work closely with two local music festivals to help put the shows together. In July, we worked with PDX POP NOW!, a local non-profit music fest focused on creating all age shows making music more accessible for younger people. Click to read the Willamette Week coverage and you can view photos of the show here.

 

Music Fest NWMusic Fest NWWe rocked  August when we worked with Music Fest Northwest who pulled together great local bands--both established and emerging. This unique show was an interesting mix of Portland's Rock Royalty--ala the Pierced Arrows--and new Punk upstarts--the Shaky Hands.

Thanks again to PDX POP NOW! and Music Fest Northwest and Willamette Week to help create great opportunities for Portlanders to enjoy free local music--in a context that was both surprising and interesting for the audience.
