Kalida is a soulful Americana and blues-rock band from Portland, Oregon, known for their groove-driven sound, lyrically rich songwriting, and tight live performances. Blending elements of roots rock, modern Americana, and classic blues, Kalida crafts songs that feel timeless, rhythmic, and deeply human.
Their music bridges the gap between storytelling and energy, channeling influences like Nathaniel Rateliff, Dave Matthew’s Band, and The Wood Brothers while staying distinctly their own. Every performance carries the warmth of the Pacific Northwest music scene and the pulse of true, live musicianship.
It&i is a delightfully odd one-man-band, who performs punky/dancy/cabaret/pop originals. The drums are played with his feet, and he runs an acoustic guitar through an array of effects, and live looping, while tooting on a hodgepodge of homemade gadgetry. With a love for eclecticness, and the insane bombardment of stimuli a carnival brings, It&i believes in writing well crafted songs, full of exciting twists and turns. It&i's music spans from grungy-folk to cartoonish vaudevillian nightmare, and everywhere inbetween. Like a strange Goblin who roams the hills of eternal Autumn, he searches through haunted houses, abandoned factories, and dusk-lit woods for the right batch of notes to tinker up a spell.
