!mindparade
!mindparade blends elements of art rock, psychpop, and experimentalism while retaining a strong sense of song craft. Based in Portland, Oregon, songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Alex Arnold collaborates with friends to flesh out the project’s kaleidoscopic tunes, often utilizing lush string sections and expansive synth explorations.
Their music has been described as “an ambitious low-fi bedroom symphony marked by flourishing psychedelic arrangements” (NUVO) and “a perfect slice of what’s best in Oregon Pop Music.” (Oregon Arts Watch).
The band has shared bills with acts as diverse as Bill Callahan, Pearl & The Oysters, and Holy Wave, and has recently appeared at large festivals across the PNW such as Lose Yr Mind Fest (PDX), Treefort Fest (Boise), and Freakout Festival (Seattle).
Mobius Trip
Mobius Trip is a Boise-based rock band formed in 2023, blending fuzzed-out blues, psychedelic pop, and acid-soaked rock into a sound that defies genre lines.
Built around the songwriting partnership of Mason Jackson (vocals, guitar) and Alex Wargo (multi-instrumentalist, vocals), the band thrives on dynamic contrasts and adventurous songwriting. They’re joined by Steven Sherden (guitar, vocals), Justin Binau (bass), and Josh Lady (drums), creating a lineup that delivers both raw power and textured experimentation.
Drawing influence from legends like Cream, The Beatles, and Pink Floyd alongside underground cult favorites such as St. John Green, The Mops, and HP Lovecraft, Mobius Trip crafts music that’s equal parts nostalgic and forward-looking — an invitation to take the trip with them
