HAPPY NEW AND IMPROVED MISSISSIPPI STUDIOS ONE YEAR ANNIVERARY!
Wow, what an epic year we’ve had! Its hard to fathom that it was just one tiny year ago that our doors re-opened as the new and improved Mississippi Studios. From humble beginnings (remember our old 85 person capacity?) to hosting hundreds of amazing shows in our spanky new 300 capacity digs – including super legendary evenings with artists like Vic Chesnutt, The Gossip, Blind Pilot, The Budos Band, Black Joe Lewis, Do Make Say Think, Mirah, The Cave Singers and piles more. Tonight Willamette Week joins us in presenting – A SWELLEBRATION in honor of our one year anniversary, and what a sweet lineup of local heavy hitters! SALLIE FORD AND THE SOUND OUTSIDE have been taking Portland by storm with their fresh yet vintage take on bluesy rock and roll. Their old-timey tunes are adored by even the Avett Brothers, who were so impressed by a performance that they personally asked this young band to join them on tour. Nobody pushes the boundaries of pop so expertly in Portland as DIRTY MITTENS. “They are sweet (yes) and twinkly (sometimes), and singer Chelsea Morrissey’s voice will remind you instantly of a holy mishmosh of some of the greats” (Spectre Entertainment). And as if our stage could fit any more awesomeness, tonight’s celebration also features TAHOE JACKSON, YELTSIN, MATT SHEEHY & THE MENDERS, RUN ON SENTENCE, SEAN FLINN & THE ROYAL WE, ADAM SHEARER, HOLCOMBE WALLER, LAURA GIBSON, and JUSTIN POWER. Wow. Get here early! Capacity is limited to what we can fit in the room at any given time and admission is FREE! But lucky you it’s a long night – /show will run from 8pm- to at least 1am - so get ready for some fun!!
