THE NEW OREGON INTERVIEW SERIES MUSIC NIGHT
The New Oregon Interview Series brings three influential Portland music-makers together for an evening of intimate conversation.Kill Rock Stars founder Slim Moon, Mississippi Studios co-owner Alicia Rose, and rap artist Mic Crenshaw sit down to discuss their work and how our music culture is evolving. Said interviewee DJ Anjali, "It's still like the Wild West here. People are coming from other parts of the country to live here because they might be able to do what they want to do."
An influential punk musician, Moon has toured with Kathleen Hanna and Bikini Kill, and under his direction, Kill Rock Stars released such artists as Elliott Smith, the Decemberists, and Sleater-Kinney. Dubbed "one of the best hiphop artists in PDX" by the Portland Mercury, Crenshaw has shared stages with the Fugees and the Wu-Tang Clan and his recent release hit number four on the college radio hiphop charts. Rose was the talent buyer for the Doug Fir before she partnered with Jim Brunberg to transform Mississippi Studios into a driving music venue, and is well-known for photographing local performers.
Host Nora Robertson conceived the New Oregon Interview Series to find out how Portland's blossoming creative culture has developed and where it's headed. "A lot has changed in the past decade," Robertson says. "The best perspective comes from the artists themselves---and the designers, writers, chefs, and venues who make things happen here."
