4th Annual Ray Davies Day
Recommended
It’s becoming an annual event: The city of Portland declaring July 15 Ray Davies Day in honor of a show he played here four years ago, and now the tradition of celebrating one of England’s finest songwriters continues (albeit one day late). Portland bands like Wampire and the Cry! will cover some of the best chestnuts from the Kinks’ treasure trove, including masterpieces like “Waterloo Sunset” and “Tired of Waiting for You.” NED LANNAMANN
