Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys * Patchy Sanders
Two rising stars of the national Americana scene join forces for a concert at the Alberta Rose.
On their new album, Ionia, blazing hot Michigan roots ensemble Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys rest on the cusp of change, poised at that moment where everything shifts into high gear and time rushes forward. As a tight-as-hardwood string band, these ace players know how to sustain this moment expertly. There's incredible kinetic motion in this music, a sense of movement so exacting and precise that it's almost architectural.
Alt-folk orchestra Patchy Sanders hails from Ashland, Oregon. They craft stream-of-consciousness story music with an emphasis on melody and lyrics. These aren't songs as much as they are musical emotional experiences which conjure other-worldly journeys. Their music is equally at home in an acoustic art-house, a farm house hootenanny hoe-down or a pop festival main stage.

Two of the finest players in bluegrass join forces for a not-to-be-missed concert. Noam Pikelny is the preeminent banjoist among a new generation of acoustic musicians. He was the first winner of the annual Steve Martin Prize for Excellence in Banjo and Bluegrass-if he's good enough for Steve, he's good enough for us! Multi-instrumentalist and fiddler extraordinaire Stuart Duncan has built upon his bluegrass roots to become an artist that defies categorization and surpasses the limits of any specific genre. From Robert Plant to Panic at the Disco, Stuart's playing and influence can be heard among many of today's top hit-makers.

Back Fence PDX: Mainstage
The Back Fence PDX: Mainstage show has been playing to packed good-looking audiences since 2008. The evening features local and out-of-town storytellers telling true personal tales based on the night's theme. Former storytellers range from a blood-spatter expert, a pet photographer, a park ranger, a funeral director, a former Scientologist-anyone with a captivating tale. Mainstage stories have never been told publicly-in some cases, not even to significant others.
