We’ve been honored by our hometown of Portland, Oregon. The Portland Mural Project was unveiled in September, a painting by the Pander Bros. of Dark Horse Comics fame. The mural includes thirty-three bands and performers who’ve left their mark on The Rose City and the World.
The mural is the brainchild of Jason Savage, a freelance photographer. “ I realized that Portland didn’t have any public artworks that were tributes to the music that’s come from here, and there’s a lot of music that’s helped shape the identity of this city over the years.” His dream is to spread the idea to other cities across America.
The acts included span a wide array of genres and more than sixty years of Music History, from the Kingsmen to Everclear, to Esperanza Spaulding... oh yeah...and NU SHOOZ! Head to the Music Mural Project for the complete list of musicians and a close-up of the artwork.
