Mo Troper, Nick Eng, Sad Giants

*Tickets Available at the Door 

Mo Troper is a Portland-based singer, songwriter, and guitarist whose music takes listeners on an emotional trip, with the beauty of his classic-style pop melodies facing up against lyrics that ask pointed, sardonic questions about the world around him. Based in Portland, Oregon, Troper was born in 1992; his great-grandmother was Pearl Argyle, a celebrated actress and ballet dancer in the ’20s and ’30s, while his grandfather Steven Bernhardt worked as a producer and assistant director in film and television during the ’60s and ’70s. Troper’s father was an obsessive Beatles fan, and Mo grew up absorbing the influences of the Fab Four and other ’60s pop acts. At an early age, Troper had developed a passionate interest in music, and in his teens he began making his way into the Portland D.I.Y. music scene.
