Some very good friends of ours (David Meiklejohn and Sonya Tomlinson) have produced a video documenting the stories of the 15 immigrant teens in the Telling Room‘s Young Writers & Leaders program. Watch the trailer below, and go see the whole thing at SPACE Gallery this Thursday, May 24. […] Arborea were just featured on NPR Music’s Tiny Desk Concert series. Check it out and download the audio here or watch the video below. The band also just announced that they’ll be part of the 2012 Philadelphia Folk Festival, happening August 17-19. Read on for the rest of the band’s summer dates. July 22 […] 
Tonight is the last of our week of HillyTown fun, and we’re closing it out with a big night of music at Empire Dine & Dance! Details below! FOAM CASTLES + HIGGINS + JEFF BEAM + DJ Kurt Baker before and between the bands! Doors at 9pm, $6, 21+. See you there! […] 
I almost can’t believe there’s still a few more days left to this week. We’ve been so happy with/excited about everything already, and can’t wait to see how the rest comes together. Tonight’s a big one, returning to the venue that easily takes the title of favorite/best/most amazing place in the universe (sure I’m biased, […] 
According to the internet rumor mill, tonight will be the last Mango Floss show ever. They’ve been a favorite Portland band of ours for the past year (I believe we dubbed them our “house band” because we just kept booking them a few times in a row last Fall), so we’re sad to see them […] 
First things first: tonight, we’re presenting a free show at Slainte Wine Bar. Kicking off with Rural Ghosts, then Max Carcia Conover, Even Parker (if and it), and Greg Jamie (o’death/Blood Warrior, with Jeremy Robinson). See you there at 7pm? Bonus: it’s already been a few very busy days, but at the end of […] 
Last night we kicked off a week of Maine shows with What Cheer? Brigade (photo above), Callers, The Milkman’s Union, and Nogar Family Band at the Dirigimus space in Portland. Now we’re heading up to Belfast, Maine for a full day of great music, thanks to the Free Range Fest (including the two headliners […] Call it an Arbor Day Party. Call it a pre-Free Range Fest Party. Call it Friday. We’ll see you there. Doors open and music starts right away at 7pm (that’s 20 minutes from now, for the record). Details here. Here’s a new video from Dilly Dilly! 
Much like last year, we’ve compiled tracks from bands playing this year’s Belfast Free Range Music Festival (April 28) into a free digital sampler for you. This time we’re featuring 19 tracks from bands such as Spirit Family Reunion, Callers, Coke Weed, MV & EE, The Curious Mystery, A Severe Joy, and more. We’re […] Not familiar with them? That’s cool. But check this out: This Brooklyn band played the What Blog?! party we threw during the CMJ Marathon in NYC back in October, and they’re finally making their way north for a show at Empire tonight. Between then and now they signed to Ernest Jenning Records, got […] Will Ethridge always goes out of his way to produce really fantastic events, and this May 5 is no different. Check out the video below to learn a bit about the celebration at Top of the World Park and Zero Station. Get full details on the event and order your tickets and maybaskets […] 
We’ve been spending a lot of time talking about Maine bands coming to Brooklyn (and helping to make that happen when we can) but it’s time to get back to the source. In April and May, HillyTown Presents a week worth of exciting events in the state where it all started. We’ve got an Arbor […] This has been out there for a few weeks, but maybe you haven’t checked it out yet. Phantom Buffalo (patron saints of this little website) are getting ready to release their new album, Tadaloora, and put together a teaser video (above) and VIDEO GAME to promote it. In the game, you get to […] 
The recent storms in the Southern US had a devastating impact on my people’s lives and property. Rebecca Minnick (a native of Lousiville, KY, member of An Evening With and The Barnswallows, and a very good friend of ours) has organized this fundraising event with the help of Factory Portland. Your $5 at the […] |
