Parallel 44 Presents and Meyer Media present FRUITION and DEAD WINTER CARPENTERS at Northwest Best Concert Series! For those of you who were at Northwest String Summit, The String Cheese Incident @ Hornings or 4 Peaks Music Festival you know what a cool party this is gonna be. Mark it on your calendars now.

With a focus on the West Coast, Portland's own Fruition has played most major venues in Portland (The Crystal Ballroom, The Roseland, The Wonder Ballroom, and the Doug Fir,) the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, the Mystic Theater in Petaluma, the Tractor Tavern in Seattle, and the Oregon Brewer’s Fest. Versatility has defined the band since it began in 2008, and hundreds of shows later, Fruition now plays to an ever-growing fan-base in more than a dozen states, to electrified audiences and frenzied dance-floors.

Dead Winter Carpenters is a rollicking, high-energy, Americana roots-infused five-piece band. With an unbridled spirit and authentic approach to the art of songwriting, the performers seamlessly blend Americana roots-rock and a tinge of straightforward ‘tell-it-like-it-is’ alt. country for hard-hitting performances that are as edgy as they are whimsical. Experiencing an evening with Dead Winter Carpenters epitomizes what live music is all about.
