Dead of Winter 5 – The Death of Dead of Winter
Friday 01.28.2011, Doors at 8:00 PM, Starts at 8:30 PM
“Five years ago, soon-to-be SPACE Programmer Ian Paige and not-quite-yet Brenda frontman Joshua Loring had a good idea: Create an event that helps Portland musicians and audiences get through these darkest days of winter with hot toddies, cozy candlelight, and intimate performances from a cross-section of our city’s finest musicians. All good things must come to an end, however, and Josh and Ian are going to see this wildly successful series out with a bang. They’ll be joined by a boatload of Portland celebrities visiting the stage as your hosts sit by the fake fire in their armchairs, snifters in hand, guiding you through performances by Tyler Jackson (Foam Castles), Samuel James, Aleric Nez, Kelly Nesbitt, Jay Lobley (Metal Feathers), Sean Morin, Leif Sherman-Curtis (AOK Suicide Forest), JD Walker and Sontiago, Emily Dix Thomas, and more! 14-year-old wunderkind Leander Johnson dj’s the night with the sound of snowflakes falling and expect a ton of surprises from the likes of Joe Ricchio (Portland Food Coma), Crank Sturgeon, Mayor Nick Mavodones, TJ Metcalfe (Dead Man’s Clothes) and Sean Wilkinson on one of our favorite nights of the year!” – SPACE Gallery
