Brassless Chaps at Milwaukie Porchfest

Brassless Chaps is a new, all queer brass band from Portland playing brass with sass. They play tunes ranging from popular pop songs to second-line Honk! standards. Come boogie with them in the downtown corridor, starting in Milwaukie Bay Park (by the boat launch) and wandering toward the Milwaukie Main Street MAX station, 6:30-7:30pm, July 22.

About the festival: Porchfest is a free festival of performances on porches, driveways, and public spaces across Milwaukie. People are encouraged to walk or bike their neighborhoods, meet their neighbors, and share their talents with the community. Anyone with a performing talent – singers, guitar players, youth performers, and dancers – is invited to participate by performing from their porch, driveway or front yard.

The Milwaukie Arts Committee organizes Porchfest. The event started in 2020 during the pandemic. Because traditional concerts were not possible, Porchfest was comprised of short, informal concerts – decentralized across the city – to encourage people to keep moving in small groups and enjoy an outdoor experience.
