Thursday Night Coffeehouse is a celebration of up to four local and touring artists coming together in an intimate, coffeehouse setting at the venerable Artichoke Community Music. It is a wonderful opportunity to hear artists of all levels in a listening room setting. It is also important to note that each artist is donating their performance to contribute to Artichoke's mission. Because of this we encourage our audiences to tip the performers if they are able. Beer, wine, soft drinks, and light snacks are available for purchase at the bar. Doors - 6:30pm
Show - 7:00pm
Tickets - $10

THE LINEUP:
Curated by Portland Songwriters Association
MICHAEL NEWMAN (EKIM'S ECHOES)--
Find comfort in a chaotic world with Michael’s authentic and introspective spirit set to song. With vulnerability (and a bit of defiance) he crafts songs that will invite you to a world of unfettered expression. Driving rhythms on the acoustic guitar bring hard rock energy and reflect diverse musical interests while lyrics explore themes of social justice, spirituality, and the wonders of the natural world. Whether you’re seeking solace, inspiration, or an anthem to feed a fire inside, Michael’s music connects with the deep stuff that matters.
So take a break from the day and join Michael’s musings and stories for a spell.

J'AMOS--
With gritty Americana guitar and weathered voice, J'Amos infuses soul and the human condition into music that moves.
(For fans of Chris Robinson, The Stampede, Blitzen Trapper)
Roots musician J'Amos is living proof that not all who wander are lost. His gritty Americana guitar and weathered voice show off his roots and his time spent playing everywhere from Athens, Georgia to Portland, Oregon. A modern troubadour, J'Amos crafts songs that fuse his modern, empathetic perspective with his roots rock underpinnings; some of them paint pictures, others tell stories, and they all reach out for connection.
