"MusicPortland is the united voice of Portland’s music economy. As a grassroots, nonprofit advocacy group of music professionals, we believe powerful change can only be created when a diverse coalition of people exercise their collective influence. We will all rise (or fall) together. Our mission is to make Portland a better place for to be a music professional. We do this by uniting, defending, and amplifying the voices of the people who make up Portland’s independent music industry. Our membership draws from all corners of Portland music—from musicians and labels to producers and venues—in an effort to create economic opportunity for all. Get plugged in at www.musicportland.org"
