Brickbat Mansion: A Night of Dark Danse

After a hiatus, Brickbat Mansion returns for one night only on Saturday, October 24th at the Six Below Midnight. Founded in 2008, Brickbat Mansion is a long-running Portland club night focused on the swirly/dreamy side of goth music. Known for its "swirly songs for Goths and Gazers," the night explores the intersection of shoegaze, ethereal, goth, darkwave, post-punk, and dream pop, with a particular affection for Cocteau Twins and similar artists. Expect a mix of atmospheric dance tracks, deep cuts, and special live performances that drift between the dancefloor and the more heavenly corners where goth, darkwave, and shoegaze meet. Special live performances by: Suzanne Perry - is an American vocalist best known as singer and songwriter for the duo of pioneering ethereal wave and dream pop band Love Spirals Downwards.
