PDX Pop Now! Storms the Steps of City Hall THURSDAY July 22

 

Seriously, when did mayor Sam Adams get so damned hip? First he adorned his office with a portrait of Modest Mouse’s Isaac Brock, then he switched all of the city phone on-hold music to local artists with his Listen Local campaign, now he’s teaming up with PDX Pop Now! to host a concert featuring all local bands on the steps of City Hall(1221 SW 4th Avenue).

Andrew Oliver Quartet, Atole, Kelli Schaefer and Nick Jaina Band are the acts that will be rockin’ outside the mayor’s office tomorrow evening. The show is FREE and ALL AGES, so you have no valid excuse not to be there!
