Hard Neutral: Blending progressive and math rock elements with symphonic production, modular synthesis, jazz and more, Portland based progressive rock band Hard Neutral takes the listener on a dark psychedelic ride. Formed as the brainchild of producer and guitarist Eleanor Fontaine with violinist and vocalist Bex Beloved in 2019, the band introduced the dynamic clockwork rhythms of drummer Adam Berk in 2023 and have been making waves in the Portland scene. Hard Neutral's high energy audiovisual stage show and musical acrobatics are a spectacle to witness and a powerful emotional landscape to behold. Their singles including Sacred Passage and Ephemera can be found on streaming services and bandcamp.
Arkham Sunset: Electronic producer Arkham Sunset (Gerry Hathaway) has been creating a cinematic blend of Industrial, Synthpop, Krautrock, and Dark Ambient textures in PDX across 5 prolific years, with 4 full length records and half a dozen EP’s to his credit. The most recent album ‘Beneath’ was released September 2024, featuring Hathaway’s strongest material to date. Arkham Sunset brings an intense laser sharp visual aesthetic to his live shows built around futuristic lighting techniques and a wide array of both analog and digital synthesizers & drum machines.
This lineup promises an evening of diverse and energetic performances, highlighting the vibrant music scene in Portland.

hollow layers, their moods hit the listener with elation, despair, and discernment of
the subtleties between.
