Kevin Morby played Revolution Hall in Portland, Oregon, on May 20. Carrie Brownstein joined him onstage as a local hero and Portlandia star. Together they performed Sleater-Kinney’s 2005 classic “Modern Girl.” Brownstein later named her 2015 memoir after the song. Morby is touring to support his new album Little Wide Open, released on Dead Oceans earlier in the month. It is his first solo LP since 2022’s This Is a Photograph. The tour runs through mid-July across North America before continuing to Europe. Sleater-Kinney released Little Rope in 2024 and also issued Frayed Rope Sessions, a three-song EP with alternate versions of tracks from the album.
"Last night (May 20), Kevin Morby played the Oregon capitol's Revolution Hall, where he was joined onstage by a certified local hero: Portlandia star and Sleater-Kinney founder Carrie Brownstein. Together, they performed the band's 2005 classic "Modern Girl," a track so essential within Sleater-Kinney's enduring catalog Brownstein named her 2015 memoir after it. Watch the surprise performance below."
"Morby is currently touring in support of his new album Little Wide Open, which came out on Dead Oceans earlier this month and marked his first solo LP since 2022's This Is a Photograph. He'll be on tour in support of the record through mid-July, making stops across North America before heading over to Europe."
"Sleater-Kinney's most recent record, Little Rope, arrived in 2024-the same year, they also dropped Frayed Rope Sessions, a three-song EP featuring alternate versions of tracks from the album."
