QUEERAOKE is a live band queer karaoke experience, hosted for the community by spirited indie sweethearts Tenderheart Bitches. We're going all out for pride month, featuring pop-up vintage, flash tattoos, and a chance to win a free pair of Doc Martens (and more!) with a charity raffle benefiting Black & Pink. Sing your heart out with a live backing band!

Once again our raffle will benefit Black & Pink, a prison abolitionist organization dedicated to abolishing the criminal punishment system and liberating LGBTQIA2S+ people and people living with HIV/AIDS who are affected by that system through advocacy, support, and organizing. Learn more at www.blackandpink.org

QUEERAOKE is a live band queer karaoke experience, hosted for the community by spirited indie sweethearts Tenderheart Bitches. You'll be invited to share the stage and join in on your favorite songs.

Remember that song you spent your teen years belting into your hairbrush, full of sweet sweet gay yearning? Dust it off and get ready to give it a spin in the spotlight.

And if you happen to lock eyes with the cutie across the room during an emotive performance... you can blame it on the karaoke. (Or not!) 💜

This second ever Queer art and music event by the art collective ABENDBROT will have its

second show this summer. In German- Heiße Feger: mean hot people of any and all genders

and also a metaphorical meaning of ‘’sweeping out (the bad)’’. Rents are being raised, new

laws made, and its getting harder to celebrate hot grrl summer for some parts of the collective,

but we are not going anywhere. We will keep on creating art and dancing through these

shenanigans trying to sweep out the bad, of life, this summer and every summer henceforth.

Expect experimental music, hyperpop, punk, performances and sweating and dancing your

heart out.

A night of transcendent songwriting from three unique but equally creative musicians. Ronald Paris is one of the monikers of Aaron Maine, who is best known for his cathartic and emotionally raw pop music as Porches. Maine's music, beyond its pop sparkle, runs deep: taking us to places in song that douse us in joy, warmth and longing, and wash us clean. This a rare opportunity to hear this beloved indie star perform in an intimate space. Half Shadow, the musical project of Portland OR's Jesse Carsten, brings an uncanny blend of dream-inspired folk-rock and poetry laden pop experiments to the night. The Portland Mercury has praised Carsten’s shows as “invariably powerful, full of wonder, and unlike anything else." Matt Bachmann, known for his time in Mega Bog and the Ed Askew band, creates unassuming experimental pop songs that embrace both the lineage of avant-garde New York and a playful, folk sincerity--excavating sincere moments of poetic truth that shine in hazy light. DJ Swannlight aka Eliza Swann will bring an otherworldy sparkle-aura to the night's proceedings.

Tom Aspaul hits the road again for headline tour, Planet Fantastic! Tom is an independent, queer singer/songwriter, who began his career writing hits for artists such as Kylie Minogue, Becky Hill and Celeste, before releasing his debut album Black Country Disco in 2020 to critical acclaim. Proclaimed ‘queer disco album of the year’ by Gay Times, and included on numerous ‘best of 2020’ lists, the album enabled Tom to embark on his first ever tour in 2021. The Revenge Body Tour sold out at every venue and led to festival and pride performances up and down the UK and further afield. 2021’s follow up, Europop-inspired Life In Plastic was equally well received. Planet Fantastic is Aspaul’s most ambitious project yet, with shows across Europe and North America for the first time.
