She came from England, but she’s a Portlander now, and Scout Niblett’s about to take her carpetbag of minimalist folksy neo-grunge on the road to parts as far as the other edge of the Western world. Come see her off with well wishes and wine salutes. MARJORIE SKINNER

And if you haven’t watched it already, here’s Scout’s adorably puzzling video with Will Oldham which was shot in and around Portland. After she tries on a wig, and inserts bread into her jowls (?), Scout and a costumed Bonnie “Prince” Billy can be seen at these local landmarks: Sauvie Island Beach, Steel Bridge, Avalon Theater/Wunderland Arcade, Stark Naked Pizza, others?
