Steeped in decades of experience in the music scenes of the Pacific Northwest, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://portvelvet.com/">Port Velvet </a>is the new indie post-punk synth-pop collaboration between Brent Knopf (founder of Menomena, Ramona Falls, El Vy) and Patti King (touring member of The Shins and Deep Sea Diver, Radiation City). After Patti's performance (with the Portland Cello Project) of Radiohead's "Climbing Up the Walls" gave Brent goosebumps, he reached out, and they instantly bonded over their love of authentic vocalists, the rich dynamism of vintage recordings, and the soundtrack to The Neverending Story. From the pair's magical blend of chaos and order, Port Velvet’s songs emerge with rich melodies, dance grooves, dynamic arrangements, and dark subjects.&nbsp;Elliot Jackson is a multi instrumentalist artist based out of Seattle, WA. Known as the synthesizer/guitar player for the band <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6CD0HbcaKmuVB3NHJJgSdH">Deep Sea Diver</a> , Elliot brings the same atmospheres, textures, shapes and hooks leaning more into a world of discoed new age ambient soundscapes.
