Valentines Day Special Featuring: Mt Fog with Twingle and Tispur

Mt Fog A conscious mycelial network and perhaps "Seattle's premier art pop eccentric" (Bandcamp Daily), Mt Fog began as the project of singer and classically-trained violinist Carolyn B. and has been "expanded now to large, euphoric dimensions and laced with connective tissues of drum and bass" (dusted mag) with Andy Sells and Casey Rosebridge. Mt Fog has been enchanting audiences across the Northwest and most recently, Europe, with their high energy, haunted-forest performances. Their new album ultraviolet heart machine has been called "thrillingly theatrical" (Bandcamp Daily), and “a vulnerable, transformative experience" (WASH). Featured in KEXP and named by critics a top album of 2024 in the Seattle Times,it is out on vinyl via Ghost Mountain Records.

Twingle is the moniker of songstress and multi instrumentalists Anna Sabatino based out of Portland, OR. Raised in a one room cabin in the small town of Evergreen, Colorado she began writing songs at young age featuring guitar and banjo. Her roots are in oldtimey folk and bluegrass, but later went on to realms of Experimental/Psychedelic/French pop which all work to cultivate her sound and melodic patterns. Her songs live somewhere in the realm of familiar but entirely unexpected. Twingle’s debut album Future Caviar coming out August 18th 2024, is a can of worms focusing on the personal lives of female writers of the 19th and 20th century. The album was recorded to tape in the garage of Anna and Eric Sabatino. Produced by their dear friend Tommy Hollywood.

Tispur is a dream-folk project fronted by Samwise Carlson which forms intricate guitar, dream-like vocals, and ornate lyricism to excite evocative imagery of imaginary worlds. Samwise is known for their angelic vocal style, impressive range and gently hypnotic, moving performances akin to the spirits of Nick Drake, Vashti Bunyan, and Joanna Newsom

Mini Blinds with Nate Wey & The Soft Colors and Mike Mannequin

Mini Blinds Formed as a duo in Portland, OR in late 2015, both Beth Ann Dear (Appendixes) and Devin Welch (Shoplifting, Past Lives, Vice Device, Appendixes) have been playing music in the Pacific Northwest in some form for most of their lives. Drawing influences from 90s female fronted alt-rock, 80s British twee & shoegaze, the Paisley Underground, and K records, they have created a sound with many layers and a common thread. In 2016 they released their first 8 song album “Air Signs”. The songs were bouncy and minimal, held together by layers of analog drum machines. In September 2018 the group released their EP ‘Dust’. Over time a natural evolution in the sound of the band has developed. Their sound has become much more dreamy and slightly harder with more guitar feedback and noise. Since the pandemic the band has been working on writing their third collection of songs in hopes to release it sometime in the near future.

Nate Wey & The Soft Colors make music in Portland, OR. Inspired by cinema, nature, David Lynch, and architecture. The live bands includes current and former members of Blitzen Trapper, Black Doors, Wildflowers, and others.

Mike Skill Band with Holy Denim and Celebrity Telethon + Freak of Nature

Mirroreye Presents a potent dose of garage rock splendor at The Six Below Midnight!

Mike Skill (The Romantics) From his humble beginnings with a beat-up Lyle guitar to international success with The Romantics, Mike Skill's musical journey spans over five decades. Rooted in Detroit, Skill's passion ignited as a teen playing psychedelic rock with friends and evolved through punk influences in New York's CBGB scene. As a founding member of The Romantics, Skill co-wrote iconic hits like "What I Like About You" and "Talking in Your Sleep", blending raw energy and creativity. Despite challenges, his determination and talent continue to shine as he tours with the band today.

Summer Hymns, The Reverberations, and The Stiff Sisters

Celebrity Telethon is a group of rock and roll irregulars operating out of the sordid lounges and nightclubs of Portland, OR. Their acrid brew of influences emit top notes of first wave punk, no-wave tumult and seedy R&B with a base note of mutant-flophouse country and western. This is no rehashing of bygone genres du jour, but a rallying cry heard ‘round the greater Portland Metropolitan Area: can you dig it?

Freak of Nature Just some freaks on the local Portland music scene slingin' good-time funky rock-n-roll and freakin' minds.

Fashion Club (LA) the avant-pop project led by Pascal Stevenson, will deliver a night of bold soundscapes and raw emotion. Stevenson, previously the bassist of Moaning, takes a central role with a fresh approach to songwriting that’s deeply personal yet tinged with broader social commentary. With her new album, A Love You Cannot Shake, she blends 80s synth-driven influences with the brooding elegance of artists like Portishead. Expect ethereal vocals, dense synth layers, and beats that evoke themes of personal transformation, systemic pressures, and inner conflict.

Self-produced by Stevenson, the album reveals her growth as both a solo artist and producer, marked by distorted synths and reflective lyrics about identity and power dynamics. Songs like “Pantomime” showcase her ability to create eerie, compelling soundscapes that are equally atmospheric and intense, making her live performances an immersive journey for audiences.

Fashion Club’s live set aims to translate the record’s intensity into a more dynamic, unpredictable experience. As she explores new territories beyond her previous work, Stevenson’s shows promise a mix of improvisation, high energy, and haunting beauty.

Produced by Cameron Spies of Night Heron, the album reflects Tenants’ signature collaborative sound, making them the perfect addition to this dynamic lineup.

Myriads with Coral Grief and Pitschouse + Bory

Myriads
Since her early days of musical performance, Maria DeHart has been on a continuous journey of building her sound. Starting in 2018, the Portland, Oregon-based artist has traveled through a few distinct phases, going from acoustic songwriter to loop-pedal expert to full band frontperson. Her newest release, an EP called “Win Some, Lose Everyone” that was released in October of 2023 on the east coast-based indie label Self Aware Records, is a brief yet strong run of filled-out songs that signals a development in DeHart’s self-actualization. While prepping for its release, DeHart came to the realization that this would be the perfect time to adopt an official name for her project, Myriads, which nowadays includes much collaboration and feels significantly bigger than just herself.

Coral Grief
With their dreamy and ethereal sound, Coral Grief has been captivating audiences across the Pacific Northwest. Drawing on influences from indie pop and darkwave, their songs balance melody with a haunting edge, inviting listeners into a sound world that’s both beautiful and bittersweet.

Pitschouse

Bory
Listening to a Bory song is like stepping into a universe all its own, a kaleidoscopic journey filled to the brim with effortless hooks and guitar lines that get stuck inside your head for weeks on end. Following 2021’s Sidelined EP, songwriter Brenden Ramirez emerges onto the scene as a devout student of the pop song on Who’s A Good Boy, the long-awaited debut LP from Bory. Showcasing both Ramirez’s knack for a great melody as well as his versatility around the fretboard, Who’s A Good Boy is an absolute tour de force, an album where the lines separating dream pop, indie rock, and power pop are blurred to the point of being indistinguishable.

Kallai (sounds like 'call-eye') celebrates the sound of the timeless, the places that never were, and the futures that may never be.

True Primitives Clint Sargent, founding member and lead guitarist of The High Violets, formed True Primitives in 2018. He composed and produced the band's debut album, Revolutions, released August 2018.

The band's sound has been hailed as sexy groove gaze with heavy pulsating bass lines, shimmering guitar, skyscraper riffs, dramatic breaks, psychedelic guitar solos and textured electronic sounds.

True Primitives sophomore album is scheduled to be released January 2025.

psychoactive finale: Gondos with The Snares (sac) and Night Spots

PSYCHOACTIVE FINALE!

Gondos - Portland, Oregon, based Gondos is a hard band to define. With an ever evolving sound that ranges from the darkest depths of doom metal and punk to the fuzzy, psychedelic worlds of rock and garage. Drawing upon influences of the past such as Black Sabbath, and more contemporary bands such as Thee Oh Sees, Gondos builds upon the psych/garage rock

resurgence of the 2010’s, adding their original take on the genre.

The Snares (Sacremento) an American psych-rock outfit based in Sacramento, California They are making waves in the West Coast music scene with their genre-defying fusion of psychedelic and noise rock, garage, pop, and post-punk. Their live shows bring a notoriously electric energy that makes crowds head bang, mosh or full-on boogie. The band consists of Izzie Gomez, Lukas Brodie, Danielle Judith and Julian Paz. Their debut album, “Walls that Sweat,” was released in March 2023. "seriously one of the funnest bands you will see all year"- The Mirror Eye Preservation Society

psychoactive day 3: shadowgraphs with NUG and Dan Maybe

PSYCHOSCTIVE DAY 3!

Shadowgraphs - Equally inspired by classic psychedelic pop and modern indie rock, the latest album finds the band branching out and incorporating shoegaze, post-punk, and dream pop influences into their sound. The resulting album calls to mind the effervescent melodies of labelmates Sugar Candy Mountain, the ghostly atmosphere of Papercuts, and the twisted pop sensibilities of Chris Cohen.

NUG <<<<Check out their latest video! Word is, Tyler from Shadowgraphs produced the new single, and it absolutely shines through. 🔥 Don't miss it!

Dan Maybe - is a Portland band playing guitar music. They sound like a punky 90s band that's been given the bedroom pop treatment. The band features members of Dustbunny, Cherry Cheeks, How Strange It Is, etc. It's pretty catchy!

psychoactive day 2 : Los Bunyans (CDMX) w/ Buzzed Lightbeer and La Sombra + Doombia

Los Bunyans - The Bunyans are a rock band from Mexico City formed in 2015 with a unique sound that incorporates a wide variety of genres including but not limited to garage rock, punk rock, surf rock, country, blues, noise rock and heavy metal. They’ve shared the stage with bands such as Oh Sees, Night Beats, and Motorama, have performed in festivals such as Festival Marvin, Burger Revolution, and multiple instalments of Toguiza, and have played in most, if not all of their hometown’s underground rock clubs and venues.

Buzzed Light Beer - Dionysian fuzzy slop rock trio from San Francisco. 2 BUZZED 2 CARE.

“The groovy, queer antithesis to Charlie’s Angels, this unholy trinity,” - Berkeley B-side

“They give us a blistering, over-the-top, straight-ahead rock show. Vocals were shared amongst the whole band. Gabi on bass was the wild one, flinging herself into the crowd, crawling on the floor, and being an all-around dynamo. Kendall was the rock that kept the beat going and may have had my favorite voice of the three. Mia on guitar was, well, if you replaced the schoolboy suit with a flower print dress, she basically embodied the soul and the chops of Angus Young, down to playing the exact same guitar. She played something in the realm of punk, blues, and heavy metal and owned that stage as if she was already on the cover of Guitar World.” - Spinning Platters

Represented by Psyched! Records

La Sombra - La Sombra, hailing from San Jose, has swiftly ascended to the forefront of the San Francisco Bay Area’s doom metal scene. The band, composed of Sebastian, Alan, and Aiden, has captivated audiences with their heavy, atmospheric sound that pays homage to their influences, ranging from Black Sabbath to Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats, Red Fang, Weed Eater, and more.

Doombia - Portland's Doombia play a fusion of doom metal, stoner rock, psychedelic rock and cumbia--along with other Afro-Latin-influenced rhythms. Heavy metal with a clave. The resulting sound, which gets your hips shaking while your head's banging, has been aptly dubbed "DOOMBIA."

psychoactive! day 1: The Crotches with RABBIT and Xocé Román

PSYCHO ACTIVE is about to hit Portland like a tidal wave from November 6-9 at The Six Below Midnight.

PSYCHOACTIVE FEST DAY 1 KICK OFF PARTY !

The Crotches are a garage punk band formed in Tel Aviv by three brothers a long long time ago, in the year 2011AD. Ever since, The Crotches have been releasing rock n’ roll love songs and garage punk anthems to the Hebrew (and a little bit Arabic) speaking audience of the world. They’ve achieved a cult status in the Tel-Aviv scene playing countless shows over the years, without stopping, no matter what crisis was trending upon their region or the globe at the time.

Alas, winning over the ears and hearts of rock n’ rollers in a corner of the Middle East was never really enough for The Crotches… So they moved to America.

To date The Crotches have two full length studio albums and many more singles, EPs and videos. In 2024 they are due to release their first album in English and tour the US.

RABBIT is a fierce 4-piece noise rock band that burst onto the scene in 2022, originating from the dynamic city of San Francisco. Despite being relatively new to the music game, the band has already established a strong presence in the underground music scene, due to their powerful and unapologetically raw sound.
Drawing inspiration from some of the most influential names in modern punk, such as England’s IDLES and Shame, and Ireland’s Gilla Band and Fontaines DC, RABBIT is a band that pushes boundaries and takes risks.
While staying true to their modern influences, the band also pays homage to post-punk sounds of old, with nods to iconic acts like At the Drive In, Joy Division, My Bloody Valentine, Suicide, and Bauhaus. With their compelling and distinct sound, RABBIT is rapidly gaining popularity as a must-see live act, captivating audiences with their electrifying performances. RABBIT has worked with Jeremy Snyder (Pure Adult, IDLES, Fontaines DC, Gilla Band, Native Sun) to polish the sound resulting in a very energetic work.

Xocé Román

José Román was born in Carolina, Puerto Rico some time in the late 60s or early 70s. As a young journalism student at the University of Puerto Rico, he was a pioneer of the island’s underground punk-rock scene. Armed with his trusty drum machine and adopting the nom de plume Xocé Román, he founded Descojón Urbano, heavily influenced by the industrial sounds of Ministry and Wax Trax records. He was also a founding member of Burning Face, Puerto Rico’s first goth band. As the 90s progressed, he was also involved in the burgeoning electronic music scene, founding the Antártica project. He now resides in Southern California, where he continues to produce music under the name O.P.A.L.

We are not this person and this band is not José Román. José Román is not a member of Xocé Román. But he approves this Bio.

And that’s just the beginning—stay tuned as we reveal the rest of the lineup. You won’t want to miss this.

Collate with BAUS (oak) and Tyronza

Collate plays no wave for the now. "Shards of glass guitar punctuate a rhythm section that wants you to dance that anxious bedroom dance you did when you first played that Au Pairs mixtape your cousin made. Each song is delivered with minimal fanfare and maximum intent: music by people who know what they're doing and know what they want." (Allan McNaughton / Maximum Rocknroll)

BAUS is a 3 piece weirdo punk band out of Oakland, California. Started nearly 8 years ago, put out a handful of records, eps and tapes and have toured both domestically and internationally. BAUS draws inspiration from both post-punk and no wave artists while sprinkling in a touch of funk. The three members have lived 100’s of miles apart and still managed to tour and write regularly. Stay tuned for the next release

Tyronza is Portland, Oregon based interdisciplinary artist, Angelo Scott. Exploring the hidden spaces between analog and digital audiovisual forms.
