So Wrong It's Write

By Anna Pulley | Wed, April 17, 2013

Early on in our writing “career,” we penned long missives about Jewel and our high school boyfriend leaving us for that tramp at Perkins. Thankfully those works were rightfully set on fire in a purging ritual (fine, hex) and never saw the light... More »

You may know him as Feist's or Peaches' producer. Or perhaps you read about him in the Guinness Book of World Records, in which he holds the title for longest piano solo (27 hours, to be precise). If ... More »

2012 | Best Building Built in 1907

The field of competition for this category is broad and deep, but the Swedish-American Hall wins because there's nothing else like it in the city. From the outside, it appears to be a smallish, chalet-quaint multi-purpose structure. Downstairs is the basement level Cafe Du Nord, somewhat better known as an indie concert venue. The Swedish is upstairs. Unlike the cozy, darker Cafe Du Nord, the Swedish is an expansive, wood-paneled room that looks like a small-town city hall of yore. The... More »
2006 | Best Place to Go Unplugged

When Café Du Nord owner and all-around local music impresario Guy Carson started putting on shows at the street-level Swedish American Hall, certain concert-goers' first response was a firm "So what?" For starters, the place doesn't have a liquor license, plus it's seated, plus you get the feeling that it doubles as a bingo hall. But a performance in 2004 by Portland's M. Ward changed all that.

Event Review: "Zahara!"

| Fri, September 30, 2011

This show is amazing! I saw it at the Cowell Theater last year and now it's back by popular demand! The combination of Flamenco and belly dance is awesome and the blending of musical styles, including moroccan musicians and a gypsy singer from Jerez Spain, is an inspiration. This is a chance to see some great international artists not only do what they do best- but blend their styles- creating something entirely new and mind-blowing.
