Saturday, August 29th // Russian Blue, combobox, Sellout LIVE at The Rosebud // $15 // All Ages // Doors 6pm, Show 7pm // Alternative Punk, Spankwave, Indie Rock

Russian Blue is six people, a wall of synthesizers, and a room full of strangers dancing like they've known each other for years. The Seattle band makes synth-driven post-punk that owes as much to the dancefloor as it does to the stage, landing somewhere between LCD Soundsystem's restless pulse and the emotional sweep of Bleachers.

Their latest album A Modern Analogue, released January 2026 on Pegasus Theory, hit #5 on KEXP's Top 90 chart and is now in heavy rotation across the station. The album release show at Bremerton's historic Roxy Theater sold over 300 tickets.

In an era where most indie bands are trimming down, Russian Blue is doing the opposite. The live show is maximalist, built to make a room move and not let up until it's over.

Portland’s combobox makes precision‑cut, high‑energy alt‑punk they’ve nicknamed spankwave, with songs that snap, grin, and go. Imagine the nervy angles and deadpan wit of Talking Heads colliding with the hair‑trigger dynamics of System of a Down. Modern peers includie Gustaf and early Bloc Party. The writing is compact, with most tracks landing well under three minutes, and the live show mirrors that economy. Minimal time between songs; maximum momentum. Crowds skank, a little pit bubbles up, and the band’s black and white jumpsuit uniform turns the stage into a blinking logo.

With Roseburg’s alternative rockers Sellout.

Location: The Rosebud Theatre: 663 SE Jackson St, Roseburg, OR
