Doors @ 7pm | Show @ 8pm

With an impressive track record of wildly imaginative performances, Mike Silverman—aka That1Guy—has carved out a singular space in the entertainment world. Known for his inventive instrument, The Magic Pipe, and his unmatched originality, he has become a true one-of-a-kind performer.

Averaging 150–200 shows annually across North America, Canada, and beyond, That1Guy is a regular favorite at major festivals like Electric Forest, Wakarusa, Big Day Out, High Sierra, Summer Meltdown, Montreal Jazz Festival, and more. He also earned the “Tap Water Award” for Best Musical Act at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Silverman’s collaboration with Buckethead as The Frankenstein Brothers further cemented his status as a creative visionary. His innovation continues with his touring production That1Guy & The Magic Pipe Present: An Evening of Musical Magical Wonder… The Likes of Which Ye Haven’t Yet Seen, a live performance merging music, magic, and visual spectacle.

Central to the experience is The Magic Pipe—a towering, custom-built contraption of metal, strings, and electronics that enables him to conjure soundscapes in real time. He blends sleight-of-hand, sonic illusion, and theatrical flair to deliver an immersive, mind-bending show. “So much of my music has miraculous qualities to it,” he explains. “There are lots of sleights of hand and sonic misdirection. It feels like I was meant to do magic.”

Silverman’s journey began traditionally enough: raised by a jazz musician father, he immersed himself in music early and studied at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music before becoming a standout bassist in the jazz scene. But he soon felt constrained by the instrument and pursued a sound he could truly call his own.

“I didn’t set out to be a weirdo,” he says. “But I’m starting to embrace it.” His vision led to the creation of The Magic Pipe and the birth of That1Guy. His groundbreaking work has earned praise from Billboard, who wrote, “In the case of Mike Silverman’s slamming, futuristic funk act… the normal rules of biology just don’t apply.”

As he continues to push boundaries with new music and video projects, That1Guy remains driven by a deep creative impulse: “Human beings do our best work when we’re challenged. It’s easy to be lazy when you don’t have to come up with something creative right away.”

MEL BROWN B3 ORGAN GROUP

In fact, this true all-star band (all four members are Oregon Music Hall Of Fame inductees) has been a sensation going back to 1997, when they began a 20-year run on Thursday evenings at Portland’s legendary “Jimmy Mak’s” (The Oregonian dubbed them “Jimmy Mak’s signature group”).  They’ve continued their Thursday night tradition at the Jack London Revue for the past 6 years. With a collective resume that reads like a "Who's Who" of NW jazz, blues, and soul, this group has the talent and confidence to be completely spontaneous–from their blistering solos to their improvised arrangements and segues.  No wonder they've thrilled audiences wherever they've played.

Notes on Seating: Open seating, may be limited or standing room only. First come, first seated. Open dance floor may obscure sightlines.

Doors @ 7pm | Show @ 8pm

Andy McKee is one of the world’s finest acoustic guitarists, and it’s evident from the accolades he’s received throughout his career. It’s his youthful energy, attention to song structure, and melodic content that elevates him above the rest. After nearly a decade without releasing new studio recordings, McKee returns with his six-track EP, Symbol, out Friday, September 17 on Mythmaker Records in conjunction with Cruzen Street Records.

“These are my interpretations of tunes that really inspired me,” says McKee. “I wanted to give listeners a chance to hear what I hear when I listen to this music. I also wanted to branch out a bit and include music that isn’t originally for acoustic guitar.”

While Symbol is a collection of inspired renditions, they are important song choices—artists that deeply influence McKee and songs that connect to his musical past. He pulls from the catalogues of greats like Michael Hedges, Preston Reed, Billy McLaughlin, and Prince. There’s “Ragamuffin,” the EP’s lead single, which is a nod to one of McKee’s biggest influences, Michael Hedges.

McKee notes that “Michael was not only a revolutionary guitarist on the technical side, his ability to compose for solo guitar was also genius. Most importantly though, he was able to search inside of himself and consistently pull up very human and evocative themes that made him a true artist. I’ll always be grateful for his music.”

One track that might catch fans by surprise on Symbol is McKee’s gorgeous rendition of Prince’s “Purple Rain.” In 2012, McKee played alongside Prince in his band on the “Welcome 2 Australia” tour, with the song being one of the setlist highlights.

Neighbors is a "garage band," whose garage happens to be The Center For Sound, Light, and Color AKA Color Therapy Studios in the historic Alberta Arts District of Portland, OR. Guitarist Mike Gamble, bassist Garrett Baxter, and drummer Machado Mijiga formed the band because, well, they're neighbors.

Ty Curtis: Ty Curtis has a Blues mojo that is alive and kicking, a natural musical treat for all that stand before his stage. His offerings have a throwback Rock and Roll flair with an undeniable southern-fried ambiance. Blended, it all adds up to the authenticity of his Blues Rock Style. His explosion of emotion-power-packed performances captures the undivided attention of audiences with tantalizing guitar fret work and highly intellectual lyrics. Add to the mix his exceptional vocals, and in Ty Curtis, you’ve found a classy performer that has ignited an exciting Blues career and a major Blues star in the making.“ Ty Curtis is a triple threat, since he is the band’s lead singer, as well as the primary composer of their material, and thirdly he’s a sonically incendiary, string-shredding electric guitar player” (Blues Rock Review). Ty has been winning awards for his vocals and musicianship for the last 10 years. In 2009 his raw soulful version of 5 Long Years by Eddie Boyd captivated the audience and earned the band 2nd place in The International Blues Challenge and lead to performances at The Montreal Jazz Festival in Canada and the St John Blues Festival USVI.

His first live music experience was Silverchair at the LB Day Amphitheater in Salem Oregon where Curtis grew up. “It was their performance and musicianship that made me want to play guitar and sing” he recalls “I wanted to rock out like them” and with that inspiration ingrained, Ty asked his parents for a guitar which he never let go of. “It was this kid’s Toy Western guitar that my parents found at a garage sale, the strings were way off the fretboard” he laughs  “I played that thing until my fingers bled” From the age of sixteen, Ty started showing up at local clubs and playing at any blues jam he could find. It wasn’t long before he was winning over admirers and attracting a large fan base in the Northwest. With each subsequent album release Ty’s reputation continued to grow establishing him as one of the torch bearers in a new generation of Blues. The band competed in the Journey to Memphis in Portland through the Cascade Blues Association and won giving him the chance to perform on the National stage. It was there in Memphis that Ty met David Z which led to him producing the third album ‘Cross That Line’.

FOX WALKER
Fox Walker is a large R&B/Neo-Soul band from Portland, OR, bringing the message of community, authenticity and self- confidence through music.

Fox Walker brings together an inclusive community that blurs the lines between audience and performer, where each concert is one of a kind. They work to emulate the stage shows of D’Angelo and Vulfpeck, where the crowd can expect a large cast of rotating characters performing at a high level. They also keep Bobby
Caldwell, Sade, Jill Scott, Raphael Saddiq and Anderson Paak on shuffle when driving to shows. 

In 2022, Fox Walker danced into the Portland music scene by attending shows at every opportunity. There they were enveloped in a warm, soulful, active community and have since enjoyed the fruits of its appreciation. They push each other and their friends to grow on and off stage, welcoming collaborators they meet along the way. Fox Walker has had the chance to play opening spots on legendary Portland stages such as Mississippi Studios, Holocene, Jack London Revue and festival stages at Shady Pines and City Fair. They look forward headlining these venues in the future and offering support to bigger touring bands on par with Dana and Alden, The Free Nationals and Remi Wolf. 

In 2024 Fox Walker was awarded the Echo Fund Grant, presented by a board of prominent figures in the music community through Music Oregon. This afforded Fox Walker the ability to collaborate with a collection of twenty-one Portland artists they’ve rallied over the years. After months of planning, they recorded a live-in-studio music video for their song, Let’s Vibe, at Page Street Sound Labs.

SHORE PINES
Shore Pines takes a glitchy, jazz-inflected approach to aughts-era indie rock. Their songs feature twinning guitar and trumpet riffs, warm synths, and whirling female vocals. Having spent the last two years in a flow of indie nostalgia and galactic sounds, the band released their debut album, Loom, on May 2nd, 2025.

KEEP GOING
Based in Portland, Oregon, Keep Going draws on influences from indie rock, prog rock, and dream pop to create an atmospheric and deeply personal sound. The group’s name is drawn from the members’ guiding belief that we resist through each other. Through building community, creating and sharing our joy, and holding space for one another, we keep going.

Keep Going’s songs began as electronic bedroom pop written by founding members Erin Nelson (vocals and keys) and Ricardo Osuna (bass and production) during the
pandemic. In 2024, Keep Going was formed as a five-piece band, adding friends and
creative collaborators Alex Babcock (guitars and synth), Lea Weber (drums and
percussion), and Daniel Neumeyer (lead guitar) – giving the project’s songs the shape
they were always meant to take.

Wynton Marsalis’ ‘Crescent City Christmas Card’ has been a holiday staple for me since adolescence, long before I actually moved to New Orleans. I got the CD as a teenager and was instantly taken with the unique arrangements. These are holiday classics played in ways I had never imagined. Lush, brooding, festive and jarring, Wynton’s orchestrations reject the simplistic commercial “holiday cheer”, celebrating instead a wider range of emotion. For a holiday celebration featuring the best musicians of the Portland jazz scene, look no further!

Days of Bowie Presents Black Tie/White Noise: Station to Station with The Christopher Brown Quartet

Join us for the sixth installment of Black Tie/White Noise, where The Christopher Brown Quartet will perform David Bowie’s 1976 album, Station to Station, in its entirety.

Hard to pin down stylistically, Bowie’s 10th studio LP was described as everything from “Prog-Disco” to “Ice-Funk”. Merging his “Man Who Fell to Earth” film character into his new stage persona, The Thin White Duke,  the record was fueled by heavy cocaine use that sometimes yielded 24 hour recording sessions. This made for an open and experimental songwriting and recording process, which is the perfect vibe for The Christopher Brown Quartet to explore. 

• John Nastos (Alto Sax & EWI)
• Greg Goebel (Keyboards)
• Garrett Baxter (Bass)
• Christopher Brown (Drums)

While the Christopher Brown Quartet has been active since 2014, it has arguably been the busiest jazz group in Portland since 2017. And just like his father [Mel Brown] before him, Christopher has been on a quest to further infuse the Portland jazz scene with as many of the same musical and cultural sensibilities as is to be found within the NYC jazz scene. However, what separates this group from many others (in and outside of Portland), is the degree to which their sensibilities are entrenched within the NYC sound of the 1990's, which was marked by a youthful exuberance towards being steeped in as much of the history of music as possible, so as to use those same insights to agitate the boundaries of conventional thought.

So given that David Bowie's approach to music follows the same ethos, is why it's so fitting to have the Christopher Brown Quartet navigate his music, so as to further push against the edges of what people would normally expect from Bowie himself.

In 2007, NEA Jazz Master and Grammy Award winning trombonist Delfeayo Marsalis formed the Uptown Jazz Orchestra (UJO) for the purpose of keeping important jazz music traditions alive; such as riff-playing, spontaneous group improvisations, and collective New Orleans instrumental polyphony. At the time, Marsalis realized that the New Orleans music community was lacking the infusion of young homegrown talent outside of the great brass band tradition, and chose to form an orchestra that could present traditional, classic, and modern compositions. with authenticity. Since that time, UJO has grown into one of the premier large ensembles in the world, releasing three CDs to critical acclaim, and touring locally, nationally, and internationally.

In 2008, Marsalis founded the educational program, “Swinging with the Cool School” (a soft introduction to jazz for hip tots and adults), which was used as an experimental form of music therapy at the New Orleans Children Hospital. The Cool School has since expanded to introduce live instrumental jazz to students around the country, with the intent of helping young people develop a relationship with music that has gradually disappeared from mainstream radio and media at large. Through these performances, UJO is able to introduce students (and adults) to the wide emotional range of instrumental music.

Since 2021, UJO has produced the annual Jazz at Congo Square Festival (JACS) to celebrate New Orleans culture by presenting live performances of musicians, poets, dancers, and Black Masking Indians to local and visiting audiences. JACS Festival also features local food, arts & craft vendors. Marsalis and the Uptown Jazz Orchestra plan to continue using the great legacy of American music to engage and hopefully inspire the younger generations for many years.

LADY BLACKBIRD
In every Lady Blackbird song is the unmistakable sound of freedom. Harnessing a mighty voice that effortlessly embodies buffeting power, heartrending yearning and soft, whispered balladry, Lady Blackbird has imbued her compositions since 2021’s critically acclaimed debut Black Acid Soul with a journeying independence. Hers is an instantly-recognisable sound capable of evoking joy one moment and heartache the next, a musical embrace of genres as varied as jazz, classic soul, gospel, psychedelic rock and pop. It is the hallmark of a visionary voice, on an Album that has landed on several ‘2024 Best Albums of the Year’ charts. Yet, it is only now that she is embracing the full breadth of that musical freedom in her most personal and ambitious work to date: Slang Spirituals. “This is my journey of becoming,” she explains. “It’s me rewriting the book to show the world who I truly am. From being labelled a sinner to finding my acceptance.” Across 11 tracks Lady Blackbird puts her sweeping, cinematic vocal power to use on everything from the soulful orchestral fanfares of “Let Not (Your Heart Be Troubled)” to the finger-picking folk storytelling of “Man On A Boat”, euphoric gospel empowerment of “Like A Woman” and the seven-minute psychedelic soul instrumental of “When The Game Is Played On You.”

Dmitri Matheny Group: LOUIE! LOUIE! LOUIE!

Celebrating Louis Armstrong, Louis Jordan & Louis Prima

• Adam Harris saxophones
• Joe Bagg piano
• Eric Gruber bass
• Michael Raynor drums
• Dmitri Matheny flugelhorn

Flugelhornist Dmitri Matheny and his all-star band celebrate the classic jazz, blues and jump swing of American music icons Louis Armstrong, Louis Jordan, and Louis Prima.

“Heroes!” Matheny says. “What a thrill to immerse ourselves in the sound and spirit of these legendary recording artists and popular entertainers, known for delighting audiences worldwide with virtuosity and verve. This show promises to be lively, fun, and full of surprises!”

Matheny and friends will put a fresh spin on such familiar favorites as I’ve Got The World On A String, I Wanna Be Like You, Jump, Jive & Wail, Let The Good Times Roll, What A Wonderful World, and more.

“An all-star jazz band featuring some of the most accomplished musicians in the western United States” (All About Jazz), the DMITRI MATHENY GROUP is renowned for their crowd-pleasing performances of lyrical originals and timeless classics. 

American flugelhornist DMITRI MATHENY has been lauded as “one of the most emotionally expressive improvisers of his generation” (International Review of Music). An honors graduate of Berklee College of Music, Dmitri Matheny vaulted onto the jazz scene in the 1990s as the protégé of jazz legend Art Farmer. Since then he has garnered critical acclaim and a loyal international following, releasing twelve CDs and touring extensively throughout the United States, Europe and Asia. The San Francisco Chronicle calls Matheny “one of the jazz world’s most talented horn players.”

Perhaps one of the most exciting and anticipated projects in the world of heavy instrumental music is Parlor Greens, a fresh organ trio on Colemine Records!

You could say that Parlor Greens are greater than the sum of their parts…however, the individual parts are simply stellar on their own. Tim Carman (formerly GA-20, Canyon Lights) on drums, Jimmy James (True Loves, formerly Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio) on guitar, and Adam Scone (Scone Cash Players, The Sugarman 3) on organ.

Scone is perhaps the most tasteful living organist on planet Earth (and beyond) and to watch him play is to truly watch a master at work. He bends the organ to his will like a true mastercraftsman. He’s a veteran of the soul revival scene, having played on many Daptone recording sessions since their inception, but also has learned from some of the legends of soul jazz: Melvin Sparks and The Turbanator himself Dr. Lonnie Smith. Jimmy James needs no introduction to many as he’s been seen all over the world performing with instrumental groups The True Loves and the Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio. Perhaps the most dangerous right hand in all of soul music, his signature funky approach can be identified by even the most novice of music fans, a feat most musicians could only dream of. Tim Carman. The backbone. The pocket. Having cut his teeth touring the world with blues group GA-20, Carman’s expertise in the world of blues shuffles might make him an unlikely candidate to lay the foundation for the funky Parlor Greens, but this debut LP shows otherwise. Steady, heavy pockets and as funky as they come.

Note: Ticket holders to this show receive free admission to Burly-Q Revue, our late-night cabaret, right after the show!
