Pleasure Curses is a dynamic electronic duo haunting the wild streets of Portland, Oregon
Made up of Jahn Alexander Teetsov and Evan Maxwell Grice, two childhood friends who reconnected over a decade later through coincidence, these guys have been making waves in the independent electronic music scene of the Pacific Northwest.
From their humble beginnings playing sweaty punk parties and raging house shows in Washington D.C., these guys have come a long way, performing in everything from upscale hotels to national art galleries. Influenced by the likes of electro, disco, new wave, and early hip-hop, Pleasure Cursed is known for their experimental and accessible dance music that's guaranteed to get audiences moving with its manic, propulsive energy.
Now based on the west coast, the two are tearing up the Portland scene on a mission to get you dancing. If you're looking for a dark party, look no further than Pleasure Curses.

“enticingly dark, like a piece of well-crafted danger.”
