Arrows in Orbit is the new project of local songwriter Hunter Paye. The dreadlocked singer and guitar player has been a longtime fixture in the Portland folk scene, first making his mark around 2005 with roots band Folkrum, then continuing on as a solo act. With Arrows in Orbit Paye has made the leap from acoustic to electric, though it’s no 1965 Dylan-at-Newport moment. Instead, the four-piece band—electric guitar, bass, drums, and synth—adds subtle dreamscape textures behind Paye, allowing his voice and lyrics to remain at the forefront. If "prog-folk" isn't yet a thing, Arrows in Orbit might have just invented it. Sharing the bill tonight is the enchanting Lindsay Clark, whose quiet, meditative ballads share much in common with fellow Nevada City, California, transplant Alela Diane. SANTI ELIJAH HOLLEY
