Lewi Longmire & The West Coast Roasters - Benefit Concert

Up next in our 2025 Summer Concert Series — Lewi Longmire & the Left Coast Roasters take the stage at The Griffin House on Wednesday, August 6th!

Led by Portland’s beloved multi-instrumentalist and roots-rock ringleader Lewi Longmire, this band brings the house down with a sound steeped in American tradition—high-energy, deeply grooved, and full of soul. Think: the grit of Neil Young, the raw abandon of the Stooges, the jam-band joy of the San Francisco ballrooms, and a whole lot of Northwest spirit.

Benefit Events for the Joy of it All


People enjoy live music at an outdoor concert

Concerts

Our benefit concert series has been going strong since 2011, bringing excellent music to the Gorge while supporting local musicians, young and old. These events are totally not-for-profit! We aim to cover costs, support our musicians and give the rest to local schools and organizations in the greater Columbia River Gorge community.

Guests hang out at an elegantly laid farm-to-table dinner

Dinners

We love working with local chefs to provide dining experiences that transcend the traditional restaurant environment for an indulgent event that truly feels farm-to-table. This is a fabulous way for us to get to know new caterers and expand our network of beloved wedding vendors, so please: mangé!
