Portland music Vol. I

Living in Portland is a truly unique experience. especially when referring to music. and specifically when referring to culture, but for now i am going to focus on music. i highly recommend you support:

Girlfriends.

Girlfriends has been described as a one-man (Jerry Joiner), three-piece band. confused? check out their (his) bandcamp page to get an idea. both albums are available for free download.




I had the chance to see Jerry play his awesomely original blend of math rock, dance, indie, and electronica at the Ash Street Saloon on 1/1/11. due to it being new years day, there were only a few people brave enough to attempt a two-day hangover, but i was determined to be there. here is a video of Jerry rocking his sweet tasty jams live in Spokane Wa. just ignore the douche in the front row. college kids. damn them.




Check out Girlfriends' Facebook Page. become a fan, 'like' his page, and throw him a couple bucks on bandcamp if you can swing it. he is a really nice guy.
