CABFIGHTER - Portland heavy rock drawing from both classic and modern styles, moving through hard rock, doom, prog, and heavy metal. Their 2026 album The Sea Between Stars pairs heavy riffs and captivating melodies with songs about struggle and survival.

Chipped Nail Polish with Mckenna Esteb and Frecks

Chipped Nail Polish with Mckenna Esteb and Frecks

Chipped Nail Polish - Jill started Chipped Nail Polish with just her electric ukulele and a bad manicure. The project came to life in the basements and living rooms of the lively house show scene at the University of Oregon. The friendships formed there traveled up North to Portland where the band now resides.

Inspired by bands like Beach Bunny, Snail Mail, Soccer Mommy, FIDLAR, and Surf Curse, CNP is heavily influenced by the moshy surf punk music of Jill’s teen years, as well as introspective bedroom pop that has captivated her twenties. The result kinda feels like crying in a mosh pit, which is always encouraged at shows.

Mckenna Esteb - Boise, ID based songwriter.

Frecks - “Frecks” is comprised of one twenty-something member named Jayden from Portland, Oregon. Jayden has been writing music since her early teen years and draws inspiration from all aspects of her life. Pulling from concepts of introspection and undying love, she aims to tug on heartstrings with dreamy guitar riffs and haunting melodies.

Centrifugal Force Machine with Glori and Runoti

Industrial techno, darkwave and synth-punk converge as CFM, Glori and Runoti map Portland’s darker electronic underground.

Centrifugal Force Machine - is an industrial techno project from the mind and body of Court Knight, based out of Portland, Oregon — circa 2025. CFM combines components of hard techno and 80’s industrial with lyrics pertaining to death and the desire to die. Their project is entrenched from their former career as a mortician, and the name and visceral energy both draw from that experience.

Glori - is the solo electronic music project/alter ego of Annalisa Rose from Portland, OR. Using hardware synthesizers and sirenlike vocals, she builds restless, shadowy dreamscapes with pulsing darkwave rhythms. Beneath strobing pink lights, black widow beats entwine menace and longing, daring you to dance until you’re dead. Glori plans to release her long-awaited debut EP later this year.

Runoti - is an exploration of darkwave and synth punk. Returning from hiatus with a new EP driven by classic synth sounds and punchy bass lines this show is the first preview of what’s to come.

The debut full length album releases July 10, and will be available on vinyl along with limited exclusive posters to commemorate the occasion (free with vinyl, available for purchase separately, first-come-first-served until they're gone).

NW Post Rock Collective Presents a stacked 4 band bill featuring some of today's best PNW bands!

Portland instrumental post-rock/post-metal band formed in 2012. Their music leans vast, atmospheric, heavy, and melodic, with comparisons made to Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Jakob, Tool, and Isis.

X Suns
Seattle instrumental space-rock/post-rock band formed in 2009. They describe their sound around instrumental space rock, with ties to post-rock, math rock, and post-metal; they’ve cited bands like Mogwai and Explosions in the Sky as influences.

GVTH DVDDY
Portland duo featuring Kevin Robinson and Jake Endicott. Their sound is built around angular guitar, lush synths, driving rhythms, and contemplative vocals, described by press as “the post-rock sound of ungrounded goth.” Their self-titled debut came out via Velvet Blue Music, with follow-up material released in 2026.
