About

A shoegaze, dream pop, psych and post-punk music festival

Pitchfork declared that 2023 was the year that the shoegaze revival hit its stride. Well, in the Pacific NW, shoegaze never really went away, with past trailblazing events in Portland like Shoegazer’s Ball / Fuzzy Ball, and now Seattle’s recent Seagaze and Tremolo festivals leading the way. Currently in Portland, however, there’s a shoegaze-shaped hole in our festival calendar. Our all-volunteer membership committee–made up of members of Kallai, Ten Million Lights, and presenting sponsor DKFM Shoegaze Radio–have joined together to remedy that.
