This is going to be amazing! Tim Biskup and daughter, Tigerlily are having an art show at Portland’s famed, Grass Hut Gallery tonight, July 1st. We were over at Tim’s home and were super stoked by an impromptu preview of the drawings from Tigerlily. Her drawings are smart, funny, and really, really good. Her captions on the drawings are some of the best, a comic book in the making? Luckily, we are in Portland for this rad father/daughter event. If you are in Portland, see you tonight! Details below.

In anticipation to our upcoming event with Portugal.The Man on May 1st at Space15Twenty, we have an exclusive video with two of the band members John Gourley and Ryan Neighbors playing an acoustic version of “Let You Down” off The Satanic Satanist album. You saw it here first!

The special performance on May 1st will be part of Poketo and Kitsune Noir’s “Los Angeles, I’m Yours” show at Space15Twenty. Over 30 LA artists have reinterpreted found and vintage objects in this very unique art market. The art show will be up so you can check it out if you missed last weeks opening.

On this special May 1st event, Portugal will play an acoustic set, we will launch a special collaboration of Poketo wallets with the band, and there will be original artwork by John Gourley and Austin Sellers. If you are not familiar with the art of Portugal.The Man, it comes from these two guys and it is insane. There will be additional original works that John and Austin will be making for the event. All that and you’ll be able to pick up other limited edition prints, merch, and their music! Have them sign everything, they’ll be stoked!

If all this weren’t enough, hop on over to Kitsune Noir and download the Portugal.The Man desktop wallpaper now for your laptop, Iphone, Ipad, PSP, computer, etc. Go!!
