Singer-songwriter McDougall plays at The Bindlestick in Snoqualmie, Saturday, Oct. 21

Portland-based singer-songwriter McDougall will perform in Snoqualmie as part of his new album tour, 8 to 11 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 21, at the Bindlestick, 8010 Railroad Ave SE.

He’s just completed his eighth full-length album, “Reaching for Some Light.”

“These songs have helped me through some very struggling times and are a reminder that I’ve got so much to be excited about and thankful for, no matter how I feel,” says McDougall.

“This album expands into more complex ideas and sounds. I incorporated a wider variety of instruments, breaking from my usual one-man-band format, developed the instrumental and vocal parts a lot more, and did not hinder the process with any preconceived genre.”

He is also playing at Lagunitas Brewing in Seattle on Friday, Oct. 20.
