It's been awhile since I rapped at ya- but that doesn't mean nothing has been happening down here at the Otters' Den.
Lady Lamb the Beekeeper played an absolutely killer opening set at SPACE on May 30th. They have a number of shows coming up in late June, and I'm hoping to release some new recording from them by early Fall.
Johnny Fountain is also busy with shows this summer, including an opening set for Model Airplanes tonight at the Big Easy. He is also working on a new project with Anna's Ghost drummer, Ian Riley. Hopefully, I'll be able to tell you more details about that soon.
Speaking of Anna's Ghost, their self-titled LP will be released on August 7th in both artfully-packaged physical form and via iTunes. They will be playing an Album Release show that night at the Empire. More information to come!
The Panda Bandits, who had their live debut at the Johnny Cash Night in February, are also planning a summer show (or two!). We also intend to invite Blaque Boose back up to Portland, after their great (but sorely under attended) show at the Sylvia Kania Gallery for the Tower of Song Fundraiser.
Tower of Song took a break in June, but will be back in July. We are planning what we hope will turn out to be a very special night of music- so we hope you wander down to Congress Square on the First Friday of July.
In the meantime, you can get your Tower of Song fix over at [dog] and [pony]- who have just debuted Episode 1 of their Tower of Song series from our May Festival. Check it out Here.
That's all for now.
Stay classy, Portland.
