High Step Society
High Step Society is a dance party from another dimension; a high-flying, beat-dropping, big band rocket ship with an ear to the past, and both feet on the gas. This dynamic band is bringing jazz back to the party, where it belongs.
This 7-piece band’s mission is to bring people together, to create a celebratory space that transcends the troubles of this world. Capturing the spirit of the Jazz Age and launching it a century forward, this band breaks down the divisions between us and replaces them with the irresistible urge to dance together.
High stepping is a state of mind, and a movement to be part of. Dress yourself up nice, act classy, and lift your best foot way up to the sky. Hop on the HSS Express and let’s ride this wave together towards better times.

Reb & the Good News
Reb & the Good News is a Portland based funk-pop, world, and soul group that brings optimism to the dance floor. Catchy horn lines and sultry vocals soar over grooves that you can’t help but move to. The band is led by vocalist and guitarist Reb Conner, whose songs reach for hope in a world under pressure. Her songwriting influences span many genres including afrobeat, jazz, cumbia, reggae, r&b and country, and she uses genre as a tool to portray emotion. Reb believes that through feeling deeply and dancing together, we can face all that we’re up against in this life. She is supported by her creative partner, sax and keys player Leon Cotter, (a touring member of the California Honeydrops), as well as some of Portland’s heaviest hitters: Cyrus Nabipoor on trumpet, Ross Garlow on bass, Kirk Kalbfleisch on drums and percussionist Carmelo Torres on percussion.
