The Pining Hearts are a psych-surf-rock band out of Portland, OR and Austin, TX. Kivett Bednar from Land of the Living and Eddie Steele from Entendre Entendre started jamming in late 2015. The Pining Hearts officially became a band in January of 2016, playing their first show to a sold-out crowd at the Alberta Street Pub late March . The originals coming out of the group are dance-y and upbeat, but in the same breath have a dark and surf-y vibe.kauri-spare-room-lg

Traveling, creating, and sharing original live music are a few essential ingredients for the enrichment of humanity.  Norman Baker plays homage to this fact by introducing new and old songs to as many communities as possible. His new album utilizes undertones of pedal steel,mandolin, banjo, upright bass, clarinet, and of course an onslaught of acoustic and electric guitars telling stories of loss, loss prevention, camping, driving without cell phones, childlike innocence, home towns, and walking till your shoes wear through. When not traveling and playing with his full band, Norman Baker & The Backroads, he’s traveling and playing solo acoustic in far off amazing places such as The Sou’Wester, where he’s been visiting with his family since he was a child.

Experiments in Writing and Zine-Making with A.M. O’Malley
Mar 4 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
Music: Three For Silver
Mar 4 @ 8:00 pm

If it’s retro, no one has found the time period. If it’s folk music, no one has found the country of origin. Three For Silver runs off the friction of opposing forces: thunderous bass and dreamy melody, baritone growl and smooth soprano, new music and timeworn style.

The band has hit the road non-stop since their formation in 2013, playing over 200 shows a year, and have gained an international following with their unmistakable sound.
