- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
PDX Pop Now! is a volunteer-driven nonprofit organization dedicated to
celebrating, promoting, and enhancing Portland’s vital and diverse music
community. We also strive to connect this community, in various ways, to the
public.
Begun in 2004 in true DIY fashion by a dozen or so members of the PDX-POP
mailing list, the group has produced three music compilations and FREE, ALL
AGES multi-day music festivals, to which The Shins, The Thermals,
Sleater-Kinney, The Decemberists, Viva Voce, Stephen Malkmus, Lifesavas,
Quasi, M. Ward, Menomena, The Blow, Mirah, Talkdemonic, The Gossip, Helio
Sequence, and dozens more Portland artists -- nationally-heralded and
little-known alike -- contributed recordings or performances.
The PDX Pop Now! festivals -- which have provided the public the opportunity
to see up to 50 of Portland's finest bands in one safe venue --have drawn
audiences in the thousands. The compilations have generated considerable play
from local FM radio and have sold thousands of combined copies, mostly
through local independent record stores, and helped fund the festivals.
Artists, businesses, and individual volunteers all donated the time and
resources to produce three truly stellar grassroots events -- something PDX
Pop Now! stands poised to accomplish for a sixth year.
