Who is Peace, Love & Grunge?
A collaboration of seasoned local Portland, Oregon musicians playing nostalgic tunes from the 60's and 90's rock and alternative. They sound like Classic Rock smashed into Seattle Grunge and created this band.
Each and every musician in Peace, Love & Grunge (PLG) brings something special to this band that creates an experience when you see them live. PLG isn't just another cover band, they give you an experience that taps into the nostalgia of the past. They play the tunes from bands that filled arenas and brought the country together at pivotal times in history!
When's the last time you went to a show and heard the band play, Light My Fire, No Time, Behind Blue Eyes, Mississippi Queen, Woodstock, Lithium, Hunger Strike, Interstate Love Song, and You Oughta Know (just to name a few) in the same set? PLG has married two of the most well-known and loved music era's of all time for the ultimate rock & roll EXPERIENCE!

Here's what a couple people have had to say after Peace, Love & Grunge has performed:
"The members of PLG band gave an absolutely awesome performance at a private birthday party at Vine & Sparrow in Sherwood!! We haven't enjoyed such an intimate, talented & energetic live performance in many years!! - Meagan has an incredible voice & performance style, and all the band mates are amazingly talented!" - John and Wendy Karrle
"When I heard PLG play at the Clark County Relay for Life event, when they played Because the Night, I thought I was listening to Natalie Merchant and 10,000 Maniacs. They really capture the sound of the bands they cover but add their own flare." John Douglas
