double-plus

"The songs are rich in mythos and emotion lyrically and musically...held by unique chording and diverse rhythms." (link)

queen of throats

"Very large, hirsuite male looking to join all-nude tuba band. I've played tuba for 10 years, and I've played in the nude before, so this is a logical progression." (link)

"We are all laid back as fuck" (link)




"Known as the 'Queen of Throats' for the past 15 years, professional vocalists have entrusted their singing to Mary Beth Felker" (link)




"It might all be meaningless to you, but it makes sense to me. Random acts of kindness... Indigos, violets and greens... gauzy fairy dresses... dancing bells and woodwinds... on the air over Washington Park, or sitting by Inji's side playing Jethro Tull riffs on my flute..." (link)




"We can call it 'Rejectstock'" (link)

indie banding

"Are you as tired as me of seeing indie bands make Portland the butt of hipster jokes?"




"Bring your axe, and your star struck money maker and see the man who brought "indie banding" to Stumptown. As always there will be at least 25 nubile co-eds in the club getting and giving baby oil rub downs for charity - cause it feels so damn good!"

"We need a drummer that wants to play to the music and not just go off like a wild gorilla."




"We are one of those rare bands that seem to have all the components necessary to be very successful. Those who have heard us feel we will very likely be the next big band to come out of Portland."

My goal is to record involved music with musicians that collaborate with me to construct homes full of character to house each song or concept."

"We are most happy when the sound is current and happening in the millennium."

team player

"Hire SAX-MAS sax quartet for your church service, company party, private fiesta or department store..."




"Looking for someone Male or Female:
Good gear
Militant/Rock/Punk look
Team Player"




"Know when to play and when not to play. The pregnant silence can be just as meaningful as a the perfect note."




"Arcellus brings an intense musicianship. [He has] the ability to move beyond the traditional role of the bass player to a more melodic, layered playing that relishes in nuance and subtlety. Still, at the heart of his playing is a groove that is almost defiant, and very alive."
