Out From The Shadows II Fest Photo Essay!!

From March 31st until April 2nd, 2016, Portland was on fire with some of the best Darkwave and Post-punk from around the world. Mainlined by Dave Cantrell, a post-punk zealot and former UK resident that hosts a radio show entitled Songs From Under The Floorboard on local Portland station XRAY FM that showcases everything dark, punk, goth and posty from old to brand new and from anywhere in the world he can find it.

This fest was the shit and here’s the photos by Nick Whitson.
