Lucion Hall is a four-piece band from Portland Oregon that plays sentimental garage rock. Tinged with elements of power pop and shoegaze, the nuanced songwriting can be both tender and muscular. Songwriter Lucion brings a style and persona influenced by the lyricism of Elliott Smith, the attitude of The Cramps, and the art rock theatricality of the Talking Heads. The new album Ready or Not showcases the band's range as the tracks are equally likely to inspire a raging mosh pit or a toe tapping two-step.

Buy TixDo I Look Like I’m In Love?, the new full-length from The Prids, illustrates the Portland dark pop band’s mettle through keen lyrical observations, but also in its attention to sonic detail and song craft—this record couldn’t have been made by any other band at any other time. “Do I Look Like I’m In Love?” and “The Shape” both swirl and build like dreams filled with grey skies and the flickering faces of past friends and lovers.
