About Ned and Wendy the Band
Ned and Wendy the Band is a Portland, Oregon based Glam-Folk duo formed by married musicians Jordan & Lindsey Plotner. The duo is known for their cathartic live performances that genre-hop from folk to rock, pop, and cinematic chamber music arrangements, as well as their multimedia endeavors, blending film, colorful abstract art, and original music to create a world of their own - a world which all are invited to visit!
"In their glam-folk wonderland, empathy is celebrated, laughter is plentiful, and connection ignites into dance-it-out harmony. Whoever you are, wherever you’ve come from, Ned & Wendy the Band is here to remind you there’s always a place you belong.”
— Easyfolk Media
Their latest release Dances of Significance is not only their most ambitious, creative, and absurd album yet - it is also the soundtrack to their first ever feature film, a musical movie of the same title that features a cast of 50 Portland artists, dancers, musicians, clowns, and more! Dances of Significance (the movie) premiered on August 27th at the PAM CUT Tomorrow Theater in Portland.
What is a Ned and Wendy the Band concert like?
Full Band
You can expect an evening of catharsis, with a combination of original songs and covers that will have you dancing and crying - sometimes at the same time!
The banter between the lead duo and the band is playful, improvised, and full of meaningful connection. Laughs are plentiful, but so is genuine storytelling.
As we say, it’s very sacred...but NOT very serious.
What is a Ned and Wendy the Band concert like?
Duo
An intimate and ethereal experience that taps into the nearly telepathic connection of the married music duo. Tight harmonies, soaring vocals, and raw vulnerability make for a moving musical experience with universal appeal.
