SCHAUS (album release show!) w/ YAWA (Amenta Abioto) + Ghost Piss – 21+

Schaus began nearly a decade ago in the Pacific Northwest. They are joined by Chris Hermsen and Hasan Mahmood live to bridge the gap between feeling and reality. Their angular pop music routinely coincides with unique visual pieces ranging from various animation styles to 3d. The live set is the synthesis of the uncanny valley, an episode of Tim & Eric, and a heartfelt karaoke song for a lover at night’s end.Their music is characterized by its dreamy atmospheres, lush soundscapes, and introspective lyrics. They have released a number of singles and EPs, and will be releasing their third album, Lovers Loop, on September 26th.YAWA (aka Amenta Abioto): Amenta Abioto is a singer, songwriter, producer, performance artist from Memphis, TN. In her one-woman show, she builds vocal and instrumental loops from kalimba, synthesizer, drum machine, and guitar creating atmospheric textures. Weaved into syncopated rhythms and dichotomies of comedic proportions, Amenta surprises and tantalizes audiences with mind bending ideas while skipping musically from soul-shaking gospel to smooth jazz. Boldly mystical and soul-fired, her raw live performances invoke elements of both theatrical surprise and magic through ancient African diasporic sounds and stories. Amenta studied drama and was familiarized with the stage. Her solo project made debut in at house show in Spring of 2012. Since then, Amenta has released three projects and toured with The Blow, Secret Drum Band, Typhoon, and The Ghost Ease. GHOST PISS is a diy music producer and singer song writer new to Portland via Brooklyn, here to remind you that emotions are beautiful, pink is punk, and life is fun. Torn between pop and experimental worlds, I only feel right when I incorporate elements of both. When not playing music, I work as a botanist and resource advisor on wild fires in the Oregon woods.

BETWEEN FRIENDS: I Love My Girl, She’s My Boy Tour – w/ Blaketheman1000 – Early show! – All Ages

This show is entirely sold out. Thank you Portland!BETWEEN FRIENDS is the boundless creative outlet for LA-based sibling duo Brandon and Savannah Hudson, championing a fearless, euphoric approach to songwriting and musical worldbuilding. Formed in 2017, following a lifetime of collaborating in their childhood home, they debuted their eclectic fusion of ‘90s R&B and atmospheric electronica blended together to create their own kind of pop music. This was followed by their highly-anticipated EP we just need some time together in 2018, which included immensely popular tracks “iloveyou” (75M+ streams), and “affection” (400M+ streams). During 2021’s lockdowns, they transformed pent-up pandemic energy into a string of EP’s, later released in full as the mixtape i like when you shine!, featuring “reference bounce” (7M streams), a collaboration with EDEN. Having amassed a dedicated digital following through their transcendent lyrical musings on youth culture in the internet age, in 2022 they embarked on their first US tour and festival debut at Governer’s Ball. The same year saw the release of their innovative multimedia EP CUTiE, which was met with praise from the likes of V Magazine and The FADER. Genre-bending singles  “orange juice” (10M streams) and “more” (10M streams) were accompanied by a lo-fi, dreamy visual universe constructed from a sprawling galaxy of aesthetic references that ranges from early ‘00s MTV, to Tumblr-era indie-sleaze and even classic cinema. This year marks an evolution for BETWEEN FRIENDS, delivering their most confessional lyrics yet, alongside a newfound penchant for nostalgic, ‘90s teen movie-esque soundscapes. Here, the irremovable chemistry intrinsic to their music guides an instant classic coming-of-age record for Gen-Z, and reveals an intimate glimpse beneath the technicolor pop utopia they’ve built so far.BETWEEN FRIENDS Meet & Greet Experience Packages are available.
