ORiginal CITY RECORDS

03/05/2025

has a BRAND NeW, never-before-heard song called "All Right", and ORiginal CITY RECORDS has an EXCLUSIVE video that YOU can hear before they play it live for the first time THIS Saturday, March 8th, w/

All you need to do is send your email address via DM or email to [email protected] saying that you would like to hear the song. The PRIVATE YouTube video (found only at originalcityrecords.com - link in bio) will then be shared with that email, and you will also be added to THE FREQUENCE's email list.

They also have a NeW 5 song EP they're releasing! More info at https://www.thefrequence.com/

"All Right" is the kind of song we all need, especially in our darkest hours. It's a cheerful anthem of commUNITY and overcoming obstacles. It's a reminder that we all matter, and can make it through any struggle - especially with someone else by our side. Its hooky chorus is surrounded by thoughtful verses, playful keys, and bluesy-pop embellishments. Jennifer Nau's soulful voice sounds familiar and sweet, almost like she's personally singing to you. The rest of the 5 song EP, titled "Mockingbird Girl" ranges from 70's style stadium-rock, to straight pop rock, to slinky blues songs, like the title track. There's a freshness yet familiarity to each original song, and it definitely leaves you wanting more.

Come see them perform "All Right" along with the rest of their NeW EP THIS Saturday, March 8th, 9pm, ($10, 21+)

lOCal lORds: Pioneers of the FUNtier! 2025 will be about the past, present, & possibilities of this great lOCal MUSIC scene.

Here are some HIGHLIGHTS:

PAST:
- The OG lOCal lORds will remember the historic Buena Vista Club. ORegon CITY is hoping to bring the building back to its ORiginal glory, making it an ideal venue for all age shows. Keep an ear out for announcements to benefit shows and other opportunities to help.

- Thanks to the generosity of musicians, we now have some rare VHS footage of lOCal lORds back in the ORiginal SCENE.

- 2024 was EPIC! Go find the "Best (Live) of 2024!" playlist at originalcityrecords.com (Link in bio) to experience all the great music.

PRESENT:
- Please go SUBscribe on the YouTube channel, if you haven't already. We didn't quite get to 250 by 2025, but it's been such a fun journey so far, and we're so thankful for those who have joined and listened.

- There are mORe shows coming up. Go check out the commUNITY tab on YouTube to see show info. Be there and BE THE SCENE!

- We're very EXCITED for the special release of the NeW song "Alright" by the formidable band THE FREQUNCE. If you haven't already heard these NorthWest neighbORs, then head to originalcityrecords.com to find some live bootlegs. You can also find them at thefrequence.com.

POSSIBILITIES:
- InterVIEWS are in the works, and will be a great addition to the channel. Stay tuned for mORe...

- MERCH is always fun, and we're hoping to expand. Buttons, stickers, & tRADing CARDS are on their way. This will be a great way to support lOCal, as the money made will go to mORe shows and band merch. [Pictured above is a fun card that came with stickers from GRIEVERS CLUB, inspiring the imitation. The last pic is some samples of the OCR tRADing CARDS.]

- commUNITY is everything. We need you to SHOW up to shows, steam music, BuY merch, share with friends, and BE THE SCENE!

So come join us in 2025 as we celebrate hiSTORY, catch live music, and build commUNITY.
