Listen to Slender Gems:
Spotify - YouTube - Apple
Slender Gems: Formed in 2018 by longtime DIY musician Jordan LeVeque, whose punk rock bonafides include a stint as the final resident/booker of North Portland standby Fail House, Slender Gems are a murderer’s row of some of the city’s finest musical talents. Equally influenced by the big, opened-tuned chords of 90s slacker-rock and the elegant shredding of 70s AOR, they are at once grandiose and intimate, with LeVeque’s acerbic observations of our spiritually bankrupt world, a resounding clarion call over their guitar pyrotechnics.

Listen to Ripple Vision
Spotify - Apple - YouTube
Ripple Vision, formed in Eugene, OR began making music in the later months of 2019. Composed of a balanced blend of influences, Ripple Vision meets groove oriented funk and rock n’ roll with thoughtful song-writing and arrangement. Bound together by tangents of improvisation, Ripple Vision’s live set reaches across the spectrum of contemporary jam-rock and vintage psychedelia.
The Ripple Vision sound is backed by a tight-knit community of musicians and friends. Bass guitarist, Jesse Gifford roots-in the band's low end in funky groove. Keyboardist Andy Bodogh paints color into the music with vibrant tones of electric piano and hammond organ along with soaring synthesizer sounds! Guitarist Travis Mason trade off the rhythm and lead duties reverberating the electric sounds of funk, surf, and rock n' roll. Finally, Ripple Vision's sonic frenzy is all held together by drummers and percussionists, Matt Shumski and Mark Baumgardner with their complex dueling rhythms of acoustic and electronic drums. The songwriting and accompanying vocals are shared by the entire band in creating their original sound unmatched in the mainstream.
Ripple Vision is ecstatically launching their sound from the music scene of Eugene, Oregon and beyond! With the release of their debut live/studio album, the band looks forward to expanding tour dates and bringing their musical performance to live audiences in the Pacific Northwest.

The Upstate Trio is a funky, energetic, and talented jam band that originated in Gloversville, New York in 2003. Having cut their teeth and honed their considerable musical chops in the upstate area, they brought their sound westward in 2008, making their new home in Eugene, Oregon. Comprised of guitarist Jay Waylett, bassist Justin Alric, and drummer Matt Veeder the Upstate Trio is a veritable feast for the ears. Incorporating elements of rock, funk, reggae, blues, and jazz in their music in live performances, they seamlessly bob and weave through sets that include rousing, provocative originals as well as covers ranging from rocking Phish, Zeppelin, and Talking Heads tunes to intimate jazz standards, with the fluidity and precision of a Swiss watch.
