It’s All Happening New lady- and queer-operated tape label cel ebrates first release If you you didn’t think something like “grunge folk” could happen, you’d be wrong. It is so Happening, in fact. That’s the name of the latest sonic venture from Em Brownlowe (former Swallows frontwoman) and Adrianne Sharrock (Sick Sick Sister), who’ve joined forces with Shannon Wade (The I’s/Litter Meet) for a “bluesy, sometimes boozy” mashup of pop hooks, power chords and post-Riot Grrrl attitude. The Happening also happens to be the first effort from new Portland- based, lady- and queer-operated tape label Cassingle and Loving It Records (aka C .A .L .I.). The Record Room plays host to a July 23 release party and performance, an evening destined to flash back to the indie glory of the early .‘90s. Hell, what’s more early ‘90s than the use of the word “cassingle"? For a taste of The Happening’s grrr-ific mix, YouTube the clip for “Two Becomes One,” a lo-fi, high-energy romp through gender roles and rock ‘n’ roll— on roller skates. The trio’s hooky brew of flannel, fuzz and fierceness feels just as timely today as it did 20 years ago. And for those who weren’t around when it first Happened, here’s your chance. Fist pumping, commence. Sat., July 23, 8 p.m.; Record Room, 8 N E Killingsworth; $5 includes tape with digital download; 21+; calirecordsthehappening.bandcamp.com.
