Alt-Country musician Michael Dean Damron will perform tonight, March 2, at the Laurelthirst Public House in scenic East Portland (2958 NE Glisan) with special guests, Tin Horn Prayer, all the way from Denver, Colorado. This appearance by songwriter and pug-fancier Damron will celebrate the release of his new album, “Plea From a Ghost” and is the first stop on a tour which will take Damron through many thrilling nights of performing first here in the Northwest, then in the greater Mountain West and eventually all the way out to Hoboken, NJ on the east coast.
