River Whyless with special guests, The Barbaras

Jul 31, 2025 from 6:30 PM to 9:00 PM

17100 NW Sauvie Island Rd
Portland, OR 97231

Join us at the farm for a special evening of Neo-Traditional Folk and folk-rock with River Whyless of Asheville, North Carolina – plus The Barbaras!

Bring a blanket or lawn chair and soak in live music surrounded by the natural beauty of Sauvie Island, including the farm's wildflowers, animals, and u-pick fields. Come early; the farm entrance, bar, and grill open at 5:00 p.m., offering fresh-grilled farm food, local craft beer, cider, and more!

ABOUT RIVER WHYLESS

Here’s what you need to know about River Whyless: they’re a band from Asheville, North Carolina whose music sits somewhere between folk, indie and something harder to define.

Known for their festival appearances (Newport Folk, Bonnaroo) and for their performances on platforms like NPR’s Tiny Desk, their sound has earned them a reputation for thoughtful songwriting and surprising arrangements.

Their latest album, Monflora, feels like a conversation—between four distinct voices, between tradition and experimentation, and between the familiar and the unexpected. A return to their roots as well as a leap forward, the album blends lush harmonies with a raw, unfiltered energy.

ABOUT THE BARBARAS

The Barbaras is the collaboration between sisters, Weezy and Sallie Ford. They draw inspiration from mid-century country, doo-wop, and rock ‘n’ roll, blending these influences with a modern lyrical perspective.

The Barbaras released their first full length record “Oh my God Barbara” in 2022 with contributions from James Greenan (Cedar Shakes), Jeff Munger (The Sound Outside, Floating Easements), Mark Robertson (Harlowe), and Buddy Weeks (Jenny Don’t and the Spurs).
