Bears hit Portland


Last night I was treated to the fantastic sounds of all a things a midwest pop band, Bears. Charlie from the band let me know they were coming to town and I am glad he did. Bears on the recordings are breezy, pleasant pop in an Elliott Smith meets The Lucksmiths but live they were very energetic and upbeat even including a Hall and Oates cover. I know I missed out on seeing Ladybug Transistor across town but I have seen them before and felt rewarded for trying something new. They have a week or so left on their tour so please go see them or buy cd. Here is a song off their self released ep that came out earlier this year.
