*Tomorrow night!* San Miguel Fraser is redefining folk music with their dynamic fusion of Castilian and Celtic traditions. The duo, featuring María San Miguel—an Oviedo Conservatory graduate deeply rooted in the vibrant music of Castile—and Galen Fraser—a Berklee College of Music alumnus and son of the legendary fiddler Alasdair Fraser, blends heartfelt vocals, intricate string arrangements, and the lively charm of the cittern. Their music celebrates the shared spirit of their homelands while embracing the beauty of innovation.

The band has captivated listeners at prestigious festivals and venues, including Celtic Connections, Festival Internacional de Ortigueira, Sisters Folk Fest, KVMR Celtic Festival, and Miguel Delibes Auditorium. Whether performing at intimate gatherings or grand stages, they bring a heartfelt connection and a celebratory spirit to every performance.

What happens when Portland’s most socially conscious classical music institution goes delightfully off-script?

Inspired by the wildly popular Miscast format, this brunch-time fundraiser invites the singers of Resonance Ensemble to perform music they would never normally be cast to sing. Expect unexpected repertoire, surprising pairings, and joyful musical risk-taking as we SHIFT perspective—one song at a time.

Just like on the TV show Dancing with the Stars, six Portland celebrities will be taking the stage in a live ballroom dancing competition!

From local business owners, to professional athletes and influencers, these celebrities are working hard with their professional dance partners to create a routine that will impress both the judges and the audience. Each celebrity contestant is competing on behalf of a charity they personally chose, and donations raised throughout the evening will go directly to those causes. Local judges will be weighing in, and the audience gets to vote for a winner in real time! Alongside the competition, this event also features a breathtaking showcase by the Shall We Dance professional dancers.

This is a night for the community, by the community, and one that you don’t want to miss!

Prepare to embark on a mesmerizing journey through the golden era of psychedelic blues and the seeds of the ‘jam band’ scene as Live Dead & Brothers takes the stage.

The line-up is pedigree and generational featuring Berry Duane Oakley from The Allman Betts Band, Les Dudek from the Allman Brother family, Mark Karan from Bob Weir/ Rat Dog & The Other Ones, Scott Guberman from Phil Lesh & Friends, and Pete Lavezzoli from JGB, Jazz Is Dead and Oteil & Friends. Together, these accomplished musicians skillfully recreate the magic of the Grateful Dead and Allman Brothers Band's co-billed concerts during the period of 1969 to1973.⁠
