Here’s a video preview of what we’ve put together for you tonight at Mayo Street Arts in Portland. Three excellent acts that you may or may not be aware of already, plus a pre-show stuff-yr-face BBQ party in the backyard (or maybe inside depending on the weather) with both meaty and veggie treats from Deux Cochon.

We’ve also been working with the kind folks at Picnic to put together the music for the two day Holiday Sale happening this weekend at the Maine Irish Heritage Center. The Maine Radio Project DJs will be spinning music throughout the weekend as well as meeting the community and giving interested potentail DJs a chance to learn about becoming a part of the project. Local musicians should also bring their music to add to the MRP library! Saturday will also have special, stripped-down performances from Theodore Treehouse (who will celebrate the release of their new album later that night with a full concert at SPACE), Jeff Beam (who will celebrate his album release the night before at Empire),
and Computer at Sea. On Sunday, Matt Little (“Get Hot Or Go Home,” WMPG) will throw some rockabilly into the DJ mix, plus we’ll have performances from the Milkman’s Union and In the Audience.

Jon was ALSO at the Mayo Street Arts event on Saturday, a concert that included Asian Mae, Thunderbow/Brushes With Death, and Hobgoblin. Check out his photos:

The new venue has announced another show, this time taking it in a more electronic direction, with Computer At Sea and id m theftable. That should definitely be interesting in that space!
