Ashleigh seems easily at home on the road and far from Portland. So time to take in two special shows coming up in support of some great artists in their own right.

Michele Van Kleef

This is a familiar story. Take piano lessons as a little kiddo. Start loving singing, too. But that's where roads take different directions. We follow up on the talented Michele Van Kleef and her return not only to a hometown but to music.

"Earthy, grungy, acoustic prog-rock, new-grass, pop-folk with the social consciousness of Michael Franti, the clean honesty of James Taylor, the backward longing of Gillian Welch and grooves that are simultaneously upbeat and behind the beat."

Leaves Russell

Deeply interested in doing something unique. Challenging the listener. Smart, funny, committed. Dreamy. That and  more in Leaves Russell's singular approach to creating and delivering their music.

She's drawn comparison to P.J. Harvey, Liz Phair, and Lucinda Williams. The subject matter of her songs is dark. Challenging. Her vocal style is unique and compelling.

Really like hearing when persistence pays off. Some times it's serendipity and at other times by proven record. All  count for Tyler.
