  • Mother Foucault's Bookshop 715 Southeast Grand Avenue Portland, OR, 97214 United States (map)

Wednesday, Feb 25
from 7 pm to 10 pm

Sammy Volkov
 
Imagine if Roy Orbison and Townes Van Zandt co-wrote a song - weird - but it kinda works. Alberta-based Sammy Volkov's debut album ‘Be Alright!’ was celebrated by western-Canadian tastemakers, and his second (a country duets collection called 'The Day Had To Come') topped Bandcamp’s ‘Best Country Music of 2024’ list. His upcoming solo album “Songs From the Goodbye Garden” offers an eclectic range of styles, celebrating Sammy’s love for romantic 1960s pop and dreamy chamber folk.

Tispur 
Tispur is a folk project led by Samwise Carlson in Portland, OR. They’re known for their angelic voice, unique finger-style guitar technique and gently hypnotic, moving performances akin to the spirits of Nick Drake, Vashti Bunyan, and Joanna Newsom.
