As anyone who has ever witnessed one can attest, Portland Cello Project shows are a special occasion. Not only does the ensemble import plenty of guest collaborators, but they keep you guessing with a setlist that jumps from traditional classical music arrangements, to unorthodox hiphop covers.

Portland Cello Project will be at the Aladdin Theater this Friday, May 20, and we want to give you a pair of tickets. But first, we have a song for you. It's an unreleased collaboration between PCP and Laura Gibson, a haunting cover of "In the Pines." Speaking of Gibson, she will be singing with PCP during this week's show, joining such guests as Tomo Nakayama and members of AgesandAges and Weinland.

Now let's get rid of those tickets. Comment below and explain why you deserve to see this show. Our favorite post by Wednesday (that's tomorrow) at 5pm will be the lucky winner of a pair of tickets. Good luck.

If you don't want to comment, pick up some tickets right here. But hurry, this show will probably sell out.
