Friends of Noise is a non-profit arts organization built on the values of collectivism and restorative justice. They seek to transform the culture of BIPOC and LGBTQ+ youth access to the music industry, by hosting all-ages concerts throughout Portland, providing professional development for teen sound engineers, and empowering youth to advocate for themselves. They are proud to present some truly gifted all-ages talent at this year’s Waterfront Blues Festival, with performances and stage crew support at the Crossroads Stage. 

Stay tuned to learn what bands will be hitting the Crossroads Stage!
