The Milkman's Union, the much-publicized Bowdoin student band, was honored with the opportunity to open for Lady Lamb The Beekeeper at SPACE Gallery in Portland on Wednesday. The Mumlers, an indie folk collective from San José, California, also played.
The Bowdoin group secured this coveted stage spot after Liz Ardett, who was originally slated to open, cancelled her appearance.
Lady Lamb and the Beekeeper has become one of the most popular acts in its hometown of Portland. The group attracted a large crowd to fill the spacious gallery, giving The Milkman's Union increased exposure outside of Bowdoin.
This marked the first full-set performance at SPACE, a non-profit, multidisciplinary gallery and performance space, since July.
