J. RODDY WALSTON with The Upkeeps · Portland · Oct 2, 2026

J. Roddy Walston is a force of nature. If his hits like Heavy Bells is are a war cry, then the deep cuts like Boys Can Never Tell are a tac@cal cosmic retreat. For some, his music is a form of religion, psychedelic in its intensity, transforma@ve in its grip on the body, shaking loose something primal thats been buried too long. Its not about thinking, Its about moving, feeling, surrendering. His influences are a riot of contradictions: KurtCobains fury, Nilssons fractured sweetness, Zeppelins power, and somewhere in therea perverted nod to William Onyeabors lonely calculator funk. Cri@cs try to box him in,but Walston cant be containedhe does chaos, and his live shows do damage, butfortunately his songs can pay the tab. Catch him and his band before he burns it alldown again.
