Every Tuesday in January I just wanna hear about how you fell off three bikes welded together right into the arms of a radical lime haired goat herder who took you to a fermenter’s warehouse to lay beneath the sweating vinegar vats and touch tongue rings in time to a recording of Canadian geese doing slam poetry. I’ll be @laurelthirstpub from 9-11. Every week. Tuesdays. Like clockwork. With new songs and old songs and good friends who blow my musical mind. Come join us. We love you. It’s a $10 donation…

Led by keyboardist/vocalist Julia Massey, Warren Dunes’ signature sound is highlighted by Massey’s double keyboards and crystalline voice soaring over chiming guitars and thundering drums from husband Jared Cortese and his brother Dominic Cortese. 

A long-time favorite in Seattle, Massey’s newest project gained national attention after an In Studio performance on KEXP and broad airplay for their debut LP Get Well Soon on college radio. In 2024 Warren Dunes performed at notable festivals around the PNW including Treefort Music Fest, Capitol Hill Block Party, and Bumbershoot Music Festival, and their most recent release Aquamarine was voted one of KEXP’s listeners top 50 albums of 2024.

Kris Stuart (Wanderlodge, PDX Family Band, Willy Tea Taylor) brings his own powerful, guitar-driven roots-rock band in for an evening’s entertainment!

An intimate, all ages matinee show with Frank and Joe as “The Sixties”

https://thesixtiespdx.com/

The Sixties conjure the spirit and the flavors of the 60’s harmonizing the melodies and laying down the grooves of that golden era of pop music as it moved through the British invasion, the folk boom, Motown and headed for psychedelia.

The Beatles and the Stones, The Beau Brummels and the Kinks, and duos like The Everly Brothers, Chad and Jeremy, Peter and Gordon and many others are the territory of The Sixties, and so many other one or two hit wonders like The Cyrkle, The Seekers and The Searchers. Great songs with great harmonies, the hits and the B sides.

Rose and I have been together for over 15 years, but we’ve known each other for more than 50. Often she has accompanied me on bass guitar. My past includes The Goodman Brothers, my nom de plume Buzz Holland, Mesa/Boogie, Nashville, Shanghai, Miami Beach, Heidelberg. and other places. My brother Billy and I (who lives and plays in Berlin) made music and records together for many years as The Goodman Brothers, which frequently included the talents of celebrated guitarist Steve Kimock.

My latest record is Ranchero Radio, produced by Dan Eccles. You can stream or purchase it here in various forms. Also of recent note is the CD Broken River, wherein our friend Donna Jean Godchaux MacKay invited us to Muscle Shoals to cut some sides with her favorite players.

https://www.thejustclark.band/
JUST CLARK IS A SINGER-SONGWRITER REVIVING THE ROOTS OF AMERICAN-MADE MUSIC. HE DIGS INTO A WOODY SOUND THAT ECHOES THROUGH THE HOLLERS. CLARK’S MUSIC EMBODIES A TIMELESS RESONANCE THAT HARKS BACK TO THE CHERISHED SOUNDS OF CLASSIC AMERICANA. FROM POET TO PICKER, THE NATIVE TEXAN CONJURES A SOUND AS BRIGHT AS THE LONESTAR HERSELF.

https://jescopayneandthepainkillers.bandcamp.com/
Taking influence from his Appalachian roots, Jesco Payne & the Painkillers sing songs that long for home, mourn lost love and glamorize the occasional rough and rowdy time through cathartic country music that pays homage to the pioneers of honky tonk and outlaw country.

https://noelleandthedeserters.com/

Noelle & The Deserters bring South-Western honky tonk from the high deserts of New Mexico to the golden hills of California. Fronted by singer-songwriter Noelle Fiore, their music draws inspiration from the likes of Emmylou Harris, Loretta Lynn, Marty Robbins, J.J Cale, Gene Clark, Townes Van Zandt, and the great outlaw country players. The Deserters include seasoned players Graham Norwood (Bryan Scary)(Graham Norwood solo) (guitar), Alicia Vanden Heuvel (The Aislers Set)(bass), David Cuetter (Tarnation)(pedal steel), and Jerry Fiore (Sonic Love Affair)(drums), all based in the Bay Area and Sacramento. Noelle was raised in Taos, New Mexico. As a guitar player and vocalist, she was a founding member of Sweet Chariot, singing and playing guitar/ banjo. Later, she and Tim Cohen (The Fresh & Onlys) founded the band Magic Trick, recording four full length albums for labels Hardly Art and Captured Tracks. Noelle is also a current member of the Shannon Shaw Band, on guitar and vocals.

High Desert Daydream is Noelle & The Deserters debut album, out May 31, 2024 on Speakeasy Studios SF. The songs on the album, written by Noelle, touch on life in the west, growing up in Taos, living in California, songs of love, memory, marriage, work, good times, and bad times. Like all classic country music, the songs are infused with a sense of real-life struggles and living life in the everyday.  Noelle’s incredible voice carries the album, and her songs are at once moving, powerful, tender, humorous, and intimately relatable.
