BAEBLE CONCERTS: Adrian Orange at The FADER Sideshow

Backed by the percussive sputters of Brooklyn duo High Places, Portland’s Adrian Orange certainly exudes an understated spirituality in performance; one that sounds inspired by equal parts blues, dub, and rock. Rarely rising above the CMJ chatter of the FADER Sideshow, this sporadic and improved performance definitely demands a close lean into the speakers. Once there however, Orange’s originality yields a whole slew of interesting timbres and perplexing lyrics.
