Skyclad Emporium & Sinister Coffee present a PDX Winter Solstice and Yule event with…-Federale
Portland’s cinematic ensemble Federale conjures a world where spaghetti western soundtracks collide with dark desert blues. Their music is drenched in reverb, dust, and the ghost of Morricone — a widescreen sound that gallops between heartbreak and gun smoke. With haunting vocals, gallant horns, and a hypnotic rhythm that feels half ritual, half showdown, Federale turn every performance into a fever dream of lost highways and burning sunsets.
-Taylor Kingman
Between his work fronting TK & The Holy Know-Nothings and his 2017 solo debut Wannabe, Taylor Kingman is no stranger to darkness. But here he transcends the desolate rock bottom. Hollow Sound whispers, then howls us into that place beyond brokenness where breathing begins again. Listening to these songs feels like laying down bare on the wet, unforgiving earth, pushing your fingers into the soil, and finding solace in the wholeness of who we are — filth and all. Kingman pulls no punches in his writing and demands the same honesty from those who listen.
-Strange & The Familiars
Strange & The Familiars make music like a séance under flickering bar-light. Part ghost story, part gospel, part fever dream. Their songs wander through the dust of forgotten highways and candle-lit rooms, where voices rise like smoke and every chord feels like a confession. With haunting harmonies, cinematic arrangements, and lyrics that shimmer between hope and ruin, they invite you to step inside the strange and find something beautifully familiar waiting there.
Doors at 7:30. No Quiet In This Room showcase POETRY at 8pm. Music at 9.
DJ-J-RAD doing breaks and late night dance party.
