Bang!), musicians El-P and Killer Mike of Run the Jewels, musicians Kate Pierson, Fred Schneider, and Cindy Wilson of The B-52's, Linda Ramone, Sam Richardson (Veep, The Office), Andy Richter (Conan), model Cameron Russell, and Jessica St. Clair (Review, Enough Said).

Returning guest stars include Vanessa Bayer (Saturday Night Live, Trainwreck), Steve Buscemi (Boardwalk Empire, Horace and Pete), Mitchell Hurwitz (Arrested Development, Lady Dynamite), John Levenstein (Kroll Show, Silicon Valley), Natasha Lyonne (Orange Is the New Black, Hello, My Name is Doris), Portlandia's Mayor Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D), and Kumail Nanjiani (Silicon Valley, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates).

In addition to their role as creators, Armisen, Brownstein and Krisel serve as writers and executive producers of Portlandia, along with co-executive producer Graham Wagner. Broadway Video's Andrew Singer is also an executive producer. Veteran director Jonathan Krisel is joined this season by guest directors Fred Armisen, Carrie Brownstein, Alice Mathias, Steve Buscemi, and Bill Benz. Portlandia is shot entirely on location in Portland, Oregon.
