Society of the Silver Cross plus Erina @ Sou'wester Lodge

Society of the Silver Cross is led by husband and wife duo Joe Reineke and Karyn Gold-Reineke of Seattle’s famed recording studio Orbit Audio.

Everything about Society of the Silver Cross is heavy with mystery: they lure the listener into their sound, and their world, like ghost lights in a dense forest. Follow, if you dare, and what you’ll discover is a band that has developed a singular style – one that draws from darker, more cinematic moods, textures and cosmic atmospheres resulting in an otherworldly blend of musical bliss.

“Society of the Silver Cross deliver haunting and cinematic dark rock on When You’re Gone” –Metal Injection

“Intense, layered, lush and just a little disturbing, it’s really rather good.” – Americana UK

Exhibit: Jillian Barthold
Mar 8 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Art Exhibit

Treasure From

by artist Jillian Barthold
March 8 through June 2, 2019


A new art exhibit in a vintage travel trailer turned into a permanent art gallery, at The Sou’wester Lodge

‘Treasure From’ is a new series of illustrations by Portland-based artist Jillian Barthold that explores her relationship to the objects surrounding her and their worth – while removing the word worth from the context of monetary value. The series examines what constitutes treasure to an individual and finds that perhaps most often, treasure is less about the object itself and more about where it comes from.

OPENING RECEPTION on Friday March 8, 6pm-9pm.

OPEN: Fri/Sat/Sun 9am-9pm (and by request: visit the lodge front desk and we’ll open the gallery for you)

Art Gallery & Opening Reception free and open to the public.

Jillian Barthold is an illustrator, designer, and maker originally from nowhere, but currently living in Portland, OR. Her work is heavily inspired by the Japanese world view or aesthetic of wabi-sabi, travel, and child-like wonder. She creates and makes many things under the moniker Monster Songs. Other enjoyments include, but are not limited to, staring at the moon, sitting in the ocean, and playing fetch with her cats.

This trailer is a 1960’s Aloha made in Aloha, Oregon. It was rescued from a neglected RV park in the northern part of the Long Beach Peninsula. Now repaired and transformed into an art space, this art gallery is part of our Artist Residency Program and our non-profit organization, Sou’wester Arts.

Tobias Berblinger @ Sou'wester Lodge
Mar 9 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Tobias Berblinger @ Sou'wester Lodge

Tobias Berblinger cranks out solid original tunes spearheaded by folk weirdness and sing-along barroom anthems. While fulling honoring the tongue-in-cheek trappings of country music storytelling, with the protagonist managing to lose his dog, his house, his girl, and his weed all in the same song. His latest album, The Luckiest Hippie Alive, is out now on TDRCO and is an affectionate testament to strong songwriting, a fertile period in American music, and the perennial highway blues.

Lindsay Clark plus Bea Troxel @ Sou'wester Lodge
Mar 23 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm

Lindsay Clark finds balance between traditional folk, english folk, country, and her own version of experimental folk that seems to stem from her soul. With influences ranging from the Beach Boys, Elizabeth Cotton, Joni Mitchell, appalachian folk, her classical upbringing, and her father’s record collection, she blends many worlds into a uniquely warm sound. She has carved out a unique and vibrant place as an artist with her penchant for poetry, rich harmony, and and a style of self-taught fingerpicking influenced by Nick Drake, John Fahey, and others. Popmatters called Crystalline (2018) “a rare exhibition of the weight that minimalism can bear in contemporary, reflective folk music.” Atwood Magazine called her first single “apiece of poetry in and of itself.”

Originally from the small gold rush town of Nevada City, CA, she now resides in Portland, OR. Her sound has been described as “folk with angelic vocals washing over smooth edges” (1859 Magazine). She has shared the stage with musicians such as Alela Diane, Nat Baldwin (Dirty Projectors), Ryan Francesconi (Joanna Newsom), Laura Gibson. Her most recent effort was engineered and co-produced this year with San Francisco’s Jeremy Harris (guitar/vocals – Vetiver, Devendra Banhart). “Crystalline” was released in September 2018 via Oscarson.

Bea Troxel started writing songs in the tenth grade about bad haircuts. In High School she played in a band called Bea, Rita, and Maeve (named “Best High School Band of 2013” by the Nashville Scene). The trio won Studio 360’s High School Battle of the Bands contest, and Thao Nguyen and Andrew W.K. covered Bea’s song, “The River,” as performed by Bea, Rita, and Maeve. Nguyen wrote of their music, saying there was a “subtlety and refinement in the musicianship.”

Troxel played all through her time at Sewanee in southern TN, but she did not begin to seek out shows until she moved to Pennsylvania where she found herself in the midst of the Northeast DIY music scene. She opened for musicians such as Glenn Jones, Laura Baird, and Sons of an Illustrious Father, and organized her first tour through the Northeast in 2017. She recently moved back to Nashville and released her debut album, The Way That It Feels, in September. Since the album’s release she has toured throughout the NE, played around Nashville, and was on official showcase artist at SXSW 2018.

Intro to the Subtle Body Rainbow: An Introductory Journey Through the 7 Major Chakras
Mar 27 @ 11:00 am – 3:00 pm

Winter 2019 Workshop Series

Intro to the Subtle Body Rainbow: An Introductory Journey Through the 7 Major Chakras with instructor Emily Dalsfoist

This class is part of a 2-day mini-wellness series on the energetic body. The classes are geared to be in tandem but are also “stand alone” workshops and may be attended separately. See below the details for the 1st class. (The 2nd class is The Subtle Body: Essential Oils, Movement, Mudra and Mantra to Balance the 7 Major Chakras and details can be found via title link.)

In this workshop, you will learn about the basic attributes of the subtle body (energy body) and it’s 7 major energy centers, or chakras. Explore the landscape of this system through meditation, art, movement and questions. You will be offered simple practices and insights that support alignment and balance throughout these energy centers in your own body. The intention is that each participant walks away with a deeper connection with their innate power and sense of Self.

Emily Dalsfoist is a musician, yoga teacher and essential oil lover and educator living in Portland, OR. During Emily’s first yoga teacher training in 2009, she developed an interest in the subtle body and chakra system. She is fascinated with the human body and the relationship between the subtle and the more tangible aspects of the human experience. Since 2010, Emily has completed multiple continuing education courses and has been a facilitator for teacher trainings as well as workshops and lectures on the subtle body system and essential oils. She guides her workshops through a trauma informed lens and with an intention of supporting her clients in their personal healing journey. She facilitates with a wholistic approach and includes a plethora of healing modalities that she has studied and experienced. “I am forever humbled and inspired by the continued adventure of self-inquiry, play and reflection and the bravery of each individual who shows up to do the work. It is a gift for me to be your guide and to learn from you.”


COST: $35 (plus a $10 material fee) Please pay material fee directly to the instructor. Special discount of $60 for both this class and the class on March 30th. (Material fee remains $10 for each class.)
