LIVE at The Rosebud: August 21, 22, 23, 2025
All things have a pulse. From the arteries of a living creature to the communities they belong to; from the beating frequency of a single note to the rhythm of an orchestra; from the potential of a wave to the certainty of a particle, there is a rhythm to it all. It would be delusional to think that any one person CREATES a pulse (besides maybe Dr. Frankenstein) but naïve to think that pulse isn’t influenced by our own patterns and rhythms. A river can be redirected with structure (the beavers gave us the idea) just as a rhythm can be subdivided into a dance-inducing groove. The beats of life can be repurposed, utilized, and even harnessed for energy, but the pulse remains the same. From the first law of thermodynamics to an authentic harmonic cadence, our patterns, our motivations, and our lives are interwoven into the larger pulse of our cosmic situation. At The Rosebud, we strive to be an artery through which that pulse of creativity and connection can flow.
Here’s what we have for you this week…
Thursday August 21st Nashville’s acclaimed country duo Rhinestones & Rust teams up with their lead guitarist for a unique fusion of traditional country roots and contemporary flair. Imagine Chris LeDoux and George Straight singing with Kacey Musgraves and Linda Ronstadt, compacted and patinaed into an acoustic country trio.
Friday August 22nd, Oregon’s reggae / hip-hop ambassador Alcyon Massive is BACK with drum heavyweight Matty “Narmis” T Wells (formerly of Indubious). The night kicks off with a raw soulful acoustic performance, then turns up the energy with live drums, looping, and deep electronic grooves.
Saturday August 23rd, join unassuming genius of the awkward Rodney Norman for an evening of standup comedy, hilarious philosophy, and human joy. Eugene’s Seth Milstein and Roseburg’s Nathaniel Greene open the show with their stories and wit.
