YOU’RE BROKE—Portland’s fave storytelling event, Back Fence PDX, returns with an evening entitled “Broke—Bones, Wallets, and Hearts.” Thrill to short and sweet (and probably mortifying) true tales from filmmaker Andrew Dickson, painter/media maven Joan Hiller, Live Wire!’s hilarious Courtenay Hameister, and more!

WITCHCRAFT—Spring has sprung, but there’s still a chill in the air. What better way to soundtrack these cloudy, fickle days than the roiling, moody rock of Brighton, England’s Esben and the Witch? And don’t miss the staggeringly gorgeous voice-scapes of Julianna Barwick, whose ambient compositions sound like the aural representation of a shiver. NL
