The Ephemeral Allure of Portlandia Last week's surprise performance by Kevin Morby and Carrie Brownstein at Revolution Hall in Oregon's capital city has left fans of indie rock singing a different tune.
On paper, it seemed like an odd pairing: a singer songwriter known for his introspective sound teaming up with the guitarist from Sleater Kinney to perform one of the band's most iconic tracks.
The performance of "Modern Girl" tapped into the collective memory of a generation that grew up with Sleater Kinney's music as a soundtrack for their formative years.
