The newest venture by Monqui Presents co-owner Mike Quinn (formerly of La Luna), along with partners John Plummer (Johnny Sole, East Chinatown Lounge) and Jeff Kovel (Skylab Design), Doug Fir elevates the standard of medium sized live music venues in Portland.

Designed by noted modern architect Jeff Kovel of Skylab Design, Doug Fir is a state of the art venue that is unlike any live music room currently existing in Portland. Conveying a new twist on the Northwest aesthetic, Doug Fir is swank yet comfortable, the interior of the club draws on 50’s modernism, with generous original woodwork, one of a kind glass design and a full range menu spanning breakfast, lunch, dinner and late night. Nestled in the corner of the Jupiter Hotel property, the Lounge offers direct proximity to fabulous accommodations at distinctly low rock and roll prices.

Doug Fir is proud to have Alicia J. Rose as in-house booking manager. Rose, formerly Director of Sales & Marketing at NAIL Distribution, brings to Doug Fir a vast knowledge of popular music as well as a solid background in live music promotion. Before her move to Portland in 1995, she was head booker at the infamous Chameleon in San Francisco’s Mission District, as well as holding down the fort at other bay area venues over the 90’s – the Covered Wagon, The Thirsty Swede, The Nightbreak and others. She has also dabbled in promotion in Portland with her “Night of the Living Accordion” series (in conjunction with Ripe) as well as hosting other events. She spent almost a decade with NAIL Distribution, utilizing her A&R skills by selecting labels for NAIL's roster, setting up countless retail promotions and ultimately building NAIL into a 5 million+ company during her tenure. She has also served as a talent scout for Capitol Records, label manager for Pink Martini/Heinz Records, and in her early years slaved as a record store clerk in a passle of stores in SF and PDX. She also runs a photography business that specializes in innovative portraiture of rock bands (amongst other things) and counts herself as the first punk rock avant accordion player - Miss Murgatroid.
