The Domestics, 1939 Ensemble, Moorea Masa
Recommended
Two years ago at a secret show in a Southeast Portland restaurant, an unknown band made its debut. This band was the Domestics, then just Michael Finn and Leo London. The show was the first in Double Dragon's secret summer pop-up series presented by Portland audio-documentarians Banana Stand Media. The contemplative rockers' set left a mark, as did their outstanding 2015 self-titled release. Last year they returned to the Banana Stand to record a live album, which comes out this week. It features tracks from their debut as well as new songs like "Montgomery Park." The live album will tide fans and newcomers over until the Domestics' next full-length is released in the coming months. JENI WREN STOTTRUP
