July 31st – Hudson Powder Company 8pm $5 Cover
Hudson Powder Company’s music is rooted in the concept of synesthesia—a sensory phenomenon where certain sounds evoke vivid perceptions of color or taste. One of the band’s members experiences a mild form of this, describing how the sound of a univibe pedal feels unmistakably “purple.” The band believes that the most compelling artists are those who intuitively “paint” with sound, blending synesthetic impressions to create something greater than the sum of its parts.
For Hudson Powder Company, this approach is more than just metaphor—it’s a mission. They see their work as an attempt to sonically evoke the unique mood and texture of Idaho and the Inland Northwest, regions whose natural landscapes hold an atmosphere that’s rarely been captured in this way. That emotional undercurrent, they feel, has always existed in the terrain. Their music is simply a way to let it out.
