Long the recording alias of outré folk artist Phil Elverum, self-described as “stubbornly still DIY to the bone,” 𝙈𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩 𝙀𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚 is here two years after the release of Night Palace, an album that gives its listeners quite a lot. Here’s a section of the bio he wrote for it:

Exciting news! SPACE has been selected as one of four U.S. arts organizations starting the Works In Progress Association — 𝑨𝑵𝑫 𝑾𝑬 𝑵𝑬𝑬𝑫 𝒀𝑶𝑼𝑹 𝑯𝑬𝑳𝑷! We’re looking for participants for a public-facing poster art campaign during election season! It’s free!…and the art is incredible. Read on.

Works In Progress Association is a new national collaboration of artists, designers, printers, and organizers creating and distributing printed matter around urgent civic and cultural issues. Our first print exchange, public art activation and free art distribution will take place in the last week of October and first week of November.

𝑯𝑬𝑹𝑬’𝑺 𝑯𝑶𝑾 𝒀𝑶𝑼 𝑪𝑨𝑵 𝑯𝑬𝑳𝑷

SPACE is looking for citizens and small businesses in southern Maine to publicly display an original Risograph and/or large format prints from one of WIPA’s initial 28 participating artists — including Maine artists Julia Arredondo and radical emprints 🌹. Erik Ruin of 𝗝ustseeds Artists' Cooperative was also commissioned by SPACE as part of the first artist cohort.

SPACE is one of the four founding “hubs” of WIPA and is commissioning art in exchange with Public Media Institute / Co-Prosperity in Chicago (the originator of WIPA), Bulk Space in Detroit, and Confluence Studio in Minneapolis. Risograph prints of WIPA posters are 11 x 17 inches, with optional large-scale prints as large as 2′ x 3′ and 4′ x 6′. Prints will be made by Pickwick Independent Press , located in the SPACE Studios above our venue.

We're psyched to see 𝙒𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙮 Tuesday night, fresh off their tour with The Beths and Beach Bunny and still riding the high off their new LP, 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦'𝘴 𝘗𝘪𝘭𝘭, a blast of sugary, grunge-infected dream-pop that gives our memories of listening to The Sundays, Belly, Lush, and other '90s luminaries a fresh jolt. We're sure you can think of others in the mix too! But they've also figured out something that sounds very now, and are getting their due.

The Indianapolis 5-piece are here with Brooklyn indie rock duo 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙗𝙚𝙩. Tickets are available at the door.

🎞️ 𝘿𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙁𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙠 screening Wednesday, October 21, a film by Adult Swim and Wham City arts collective veterans Alan Resnick and Robby Rackleff, and featuring a literal slew of alt comedians including Megan Koester, Jamel Johnson, Stavros Halkias, Sarah Dherman, Conner O’Mallley, Nate Varrone, Ron Lynch, Rachel Kaly, Anthony Oberbeck, Camirin Farmer, Anna Seregina, and others.

A loser gets dumped. A weird experiment goes crazy. A dangerous Dance Freak runs wild.

A FEATURE LENGTH MOVIE:

In a secret government facility, a team of scientists have done impossible, indescribable things. Genetic mutations, inter-dimensional experiments: nasty top secret stuff. They played GOD. And like GOD they are all probably dead. The filmmakers only had $45,000 to make this movie and they ran out of that money almost immediately so a lot of that stuff is just implied through dialogue. There is dancing, but it isn’t that crazy. Also the movie gets loud sometimes, but it’s not that long.

“What if two members of Baltimore’s Wham City Comedy took drugs and time traveled to the lo-fi experimental underground cinematic heyday of Maya Deren to craft a surreally and absurdly bonkers riff on the Ship of Theseus paradox, wherein a sad s**o snaps after his girlfriend dumps him because he realizes he cannot escape the self-destructive patterns than have ruled his entire life — not even after he’s been reinvented as a hypnotically gyrating fiend?” – The Film Stage

🌾 Just announced…on November 5, we’ll be joined by 𝙊𝙡𝙙 𝙎𝙖𝙬, the enigmatic, revolving-door country-folk Americana collective headed by Vermont’s Henry Birdsey, who make their SPACE debut with venerable post-rock/drone-folk artists 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙃𝙚𝙭𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙁𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙮 and the ambient elegiac folk of 𝙃𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙣’𝙨 𝘿𝙚𝙣. Tickets are for sale now.

𝙊𝙡𝙙 𝙎𝙖𝙬 (slides 1-left, 2 and 5) formed in 2021 as a recording project that evolved into a collective of revolving members from various corners of the northeastern United States. They make music with organs, fiddles, tape loops, pedal steel, hurdy-gurdy, banjo, harmonicas, and bells. The band began playing live in 2026 after releasing four LPs via Lobby Art Editions and Worried Songs. Their latest album, The Wringing Cloth, was released as a double LP in 2025.

“breathtaking, a gorgeously arranged and performed set of haunting ballads that pair drone with Appalachian folk instruments and a sense of post-rock-like cinematic wonder.” – Treble Zine

We’ll also have a special set by 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙃𝙚𝙭𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙁𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙮 (slides 3 and 6), singing the songs of Lillian Hexing + Sanguinaria Hexing. An international family of shapeshifting witches centered in New England.

𝙃𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙣’𝙨 𝘿𝙚𝙣 (slide 4) is the song & sound project of many-named writer & performer Heryn D. Homespun collage of guitar & voice, field & found samples, drones & loops. Words to invoke the griefs & joys of trans pasts & futures.

🎺 𝘼𝙙𝙖𝙢 𝙊'𝙁𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙡𝙡'𝙨 𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙋𝙃𝘼𝙉𝙏 comes to SPACE! Called “one of the most important jazz musicians of the 21st century” by NPR, trumpeter 𝘼𝙙𝙖𝙢 𝙊'𝙁𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙡𝙡 brings the formation behind his acclaimed new album 𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙋𝙃𝘼𝙉𝙏, including Maine’s own Yvonne Rogers, to our stage.

𝘼𝙙𝙖𝙢 𝙊'𝙁𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙡𝙡'𝙨 𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙋𝙃𝘼𝙉𝙏 , which PopMatters’ Will Layman called “easily one of the best jazz recordings of 2026 so far,” is the debut of a new quartet featuring pianist Yvonne Rogers, bassist Walter Stinson, and drummer Russell Holzman.

Widely regarded as one of the most vital musicians of his generation, O’Farrill has been hailed by the New York Times as “among the leading trumpeters in jazz” and “perhaps the music’s next major improviser.” In 2025 alone he appeared on acclaimed recordings including Mary Halvorson’s 𝘈𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘎𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘵𝘴, Hiromi’s 𝘖𝘶𝘵 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦, Tarun Balani’s 𝘒𝘢𝘥𝘢𝘩𝘪𝘯 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘯, and his own octet release 𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘵𝘴. 𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙋𝙃𝘼𝙉𝙏 places O’Farrill front and center for the first time in one of his own projects as the lone horn, with compositional influences that organically jump between post-bop, EDM, classical minimalism, Radiohead, Jonny Greenwood’s film scores, and Ryuichi Sakamoto. O’Farrill’s unique way of combining accessible dance rhythms with fiery modern improvisation on 𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙋𝙃𝘼𝙉𝙏 is groundbreaking work from a true visionary, rightfully labeled “a masterpiece of contemporary jazz.”

Band Members:
Adam O’Farrill – Trumpet/EFX
Yvonne Rogers – Piano
Walter Stinson – Bass
Russell Holzman – Drums

𝙋𝙖𝙣𝙤𝙥𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙤𝙣 return this Wednesday, October 7, and we're pleased to announce that 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙢 𝘼𝙡𝙩𝙖𝙧 will be joining 𝘾𝙖𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙨𝙞𝙨 as support.

Worm Altar is a death metal band from Portland focused on pummeling rhythms, gloomy atmospheres, and trudging tempos. Their debut album, “Pillars of Eternal Dusk,” will be released on October 16th by Gurgling Gore, Contemn Light, and Dawnbreed Records.

Recorded with Kurt Ballou at God City Studios, last year's Catharsis record "Hope Against Hope" was the band's first recording in 24 years since a split LP.

They're both here to support 𝙋𝙖𝙣𝙤𝙥𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙤𝙣, easily one of the most prolific bands in the American black metal scene since their inception in 2008. Known for their unapologetic leftist politics, the Louisville, Kentucky band is a guiding light for a generation of bands often dubbed “red and anarchist black metal” (or RABM).

While the band is the recording project of sole member A. Lundr, on stage 𝙋𝙖𝙣𝙤𝙥𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙤𝙣 is a crushingly heavy juggernaut with a dynamic and dramatic sound, flanked by guitars, electric violin, synth, bass, and drums. Portland, Maine’s own Ray Capizzo (drummer of Falls of Rauros) has been a regular feature in the Panopticon live band for many years.
