Pete Krebs' Autumn Trifecta

Published: Sept. 28, 2016, 6:40 p.m.

b"Pete Kreb\\u2019s career can be read as an index marker for Portland\\u2019s musical identity. He came up a scruffy kid when the city was a dark, dank proving ground for punk. He got his musical passport stamped at all the legendary clubs playing in bands like Thrillhammer and Hazel.

Pete Krebs has a big trifecta in October - he just released a career retrospective of songs called, \\u201cHey Pete Krebs\\u201d. He\\u2019s also getting back together with Hazel bandmates to celebrate the release of a recently-unearthed 1993 live recording. And he\\u2019s about to be inducted into the Oregon Music Hall of Fame.

Listen up as one of the city's great songwriters takes a victory lap.
