“Is Beaverton considered part of Portland?” Iris DeMent asked the crowd midway through her sold-out concert at The Reser. A few shouted “yes,” some answered “no” and one or two confirmed that Beaverton is “the suburbs.” Many didn’t say anything at all.
Iris DeMent holds a special place in my heart. Growing up in the suburbs of Akron, Ohio, every night I listened to WKSU, the local public radio station, originating at Kent State.
The singer/songwriter guitarist has been recording and playing out for over twenty-five years, traveling the world performing over 300 shows annually mostly as a solo performer.
Midway through the 90-minute set of her second sold-out night at the Cactus Cafe last weekend, Iris DeMent admitted she expected to have a backing band, but that recent bad weather on the East Coast prevented them from traveling.
