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.
