Wanna go to a concert this week? I did some scouring to find out who’s coming to town and wanted to share!

The Aladdin Theater
*Monday, October 1, 8pm: George Winston - “…best known for his melodic rural folk piano style, has made no secret of the debt his playing owes to the musicians of New Orleans. Creole Moon, a pensive version of the title tune from Dr. John’s 2001 album, is full of emotions that residents of The Crescent City might have felt in the aftermath of the storm.” $35 at the door

*Wednesday, October 3, 8pm: the subdudes w/Liz Barnez - “Welcome to STREET SYMPHONY, it’s the kind of an album that stirs the consciousness and galvanizes the soul with an array of songs that are underlined by the band’s trademark music: a vibrant cauldron of sounds that brings together the meaty grooves and jazzy dynamics, soulful R&B swagger and easy vocal harmonies.” $20 advanced tickets & $22 at the door.

*Sunday, October 7, 8pm: Nellie McKay - “…Nellie McKay is an incredibly talented youngster of nineteen. Her acerbic wit and prickly banter pepper her live shows in between renditions of her ever growing, self-penned repertoire and a standard or two. No song is performed the same way twice, partly because Ms. McKay has difficulty remembering lyrics, particularly her own, and partly because she pledges allegiance to no rule other than to keep her live show and her music as fresh and non-repetitive as possible.” $18.50 advanced tickets $ 20 at the door

There are plenty of other concert venues in Portland that are worth checking out! Here are just a few shows at a few ballrooms during the month of October! I will be featuring more venues as well as more concerts that will be in town!

McMenamins Crystal Ballroom, The National, 80’s Video Dance Attack, M Ward, Pat Monahan, David Crowder Band & Brandi Carlile are all on the list!

The Wonder Ballroom, Metric, Rogue Wave, Harry Shearer, Dashboard Confessional and Augustana, Aesop Rock & Tiger Army will be in town!

The Doug Fir Lounge will show Gruff Rhys, Her Space Holiday, XOXO Panda, Black Francis, East Coast Champions, The Slants, Logan Lynn, Dat’R, The Aliens, Augie March, Derby, Boy Eats Drum Machine and many many more. Oftentimes, the Dough Fir has multiple shows in a single evening!

At the Portland Rose Quarter, Widespread Panic, Casting Crowns, Andrew Rieu, Women of Faith, Australian Pink Floyd, Interpol, Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus share their love of music with our fair city!

About Portland, OR

There are a lot of misconceptions about Portland, Oregon. We are not all communists, we are not all hippies, and many of the females do in fact shave. Portland is a vibrant, progressive community that balances the native with the newcomer, the eco-minded with the lumber industry, and the natural with the urban. About Portland, OR is a home for all the contradictions.
