Friday, July 18 Photo Review: HUSH 10th Anniversary Showcase

HUSH 10th Anniversary Showcase:
Aladdin Theater, 7/12/08

Chad Crouch set up shop as HUSH and its sister artspace TANK in downtown Portland in 1998 with little idea what it would become. The "accidental" label would only go on to issue albums by the likes of The Decemberists, Kind of Like Spitting, Corrina Repp, Norfolk & Western, Casey Dienel, Super XX Man, among many others, fostering a decidedly Portland sound in the process. HUSH celebrated a decade of music making and scene creating last weekend with a triple bill representing some of the best and brightest from their current roster in Nick Jaina, Loch Lomond, and Laura Gibson. We were proud to be a sponsor of the event, and caught a unique backstage perspective on the night's festivities.
