Event Details

https://wilcope.bandcamp.com/
Cope moved to Austin eleven years ago from Nashville (although hailing from Dayton, OH) and has been performing and recording his own brand of cosmic country / indie folk rock ever since. High and lonesome. Heartbroken. Dark and desert dusted. Restlessness and regret. These are all words that have been used when describing his unique Texas American Voice.

“Low Down gutter tumbled ballads hinging on the singers nasal drawl but there is an ineffable charm and undeniably sharp songwriting buried in the raw no-fi production.”

— The Austin Chronicle

“If anyone rightly and appropriately carries the torch of Townes and Blaze in this town it is Cope.”

— anon magazine

Barna Howard was born and raised in a quintessential Midwest town. His youth in Eureka, Missouri was pure Americana – the sort of childhood that inspired E.T.-era Spielberg – baseball cards in his bicycle spokes, flying freely down Main Street and through neighbors’ backyards.

However, much of Barna’s story is not unique to his hometown, and, like most of small town America, Eureka has lost some of that charm over time. Main Street has changed, kids don’t run around quite so carelessly, and in an almost laughably cruel twist, his childhood home was knocked down in favor of a Walmart parking lot.

After high school, Howard moved north to study animation in one cold and windy city and then east for love in another. Years later, he blindly followed two friends to the Northwest, crossing the Rockies for the first time, in search of inspiration, opportunity and a fresh start.

Barna’s self-titled debut chronicled these moves as he struggled with the contrast between his small town upbringing and these big city wanderings. The album was met with critical acclaim and underground success, partly thanks to an opportunely placed song in the hit indie film, Drinking Buddies. One critic even likened him to some “lost genius of the 60’s.”

The songs on Barna Howard’s second album, Quite A Feelin’, ruminate on his relationship with home. Now entrenched in Portland, Oregon, many of the album’s tracks immortalize and reflect on the Eureka he once knew, while others focus on the relationships that define his new home out west. Small town life has long been celebrated in country and folk music, but Barna’s knack for capturing his own deeply personal nostalgia resonates in a rarely universal way.

“Armed with banjo, guitar, and a dream, Southern-fried troubadour, Austin Quattlebaum, spreads around his wildly swampy blues and backwoods folk.”
-The Sacramento Bee

“An upholder of tradition who jolts new light into vintage practices, Quattlebaum’s a talented player…”
-Connect Savannah

Quattlebaum, Southern Gent and Banjo Slinger, brings more to the table than just music. With his infectious smile and weird antics, he brings people together; encouraging camaraderie and building community. The singer-songwriter, currently based in Bend, Oregon, tours the country picking and strumming indie-folk songs that are spacious and emotive, and have an implicit groove. When he plays, you can hear the reverberations of the rustic mountains clashing with the breezy ocean. Like a willowy heron, Quattlebaum struts around on stage as the music moves through him, evoking a range of emotions from laughter to longing. He shares tender moments, where one can almost hear his banjo breathing, then erupts into raucous peaks of unbridled energy—his captivating solo performances take his audiences on a ride.

Event Details

Seamlessly blending a myriad of styles, soundscapes, and instrumentation, creative eclectics Machado Mijiga and Dario LaPoma join forces to become the dynamic duo Double Dash, bridging the worlds of electronic music and jazz. With influences ranging from Bjork to Beethoven, A Tribe Called Quest to Tribal Tech Tones, or John Coltrane to John Cage, DoubleDash pushes the boundaries of jazz music to new frontiers, breathing new life into the age-old duo configuration.

Multi-instrumentalist and Portland native Machado Mijiga wears many hats, both literally and metaphorically. Classically-trained, jazz-weathered, and eclectically inclined, Mijiga left the proverbial creative “box” at a very early age, with access to many instruments and a diverse musical background brought about by an intercultural heritage. Mijiga is a musical polymath; composer, producer, bandleader, educator, gear fanatic, and audio engineer, to name a few. Mijiga can be seen touring with GRAMMY-winning band, Portugal. The Man throughout the year, among the many Portland-based groups he leads and supports when back home. Authenticity and uniquity assume the locus of Mijiga’s artistic identity. Self-expression is the prime directive, and the medium of choice changes like the weather.

Dario LaPoma is a multi-genre pianist and composer living in Portland, Oregon. After studying Collaborative Piano at Lawrence University in the Midwest, Dario returned to Oregon and is currently an active member of the music community, known for his tenure in bands led by the northwest luminaries Lady Rizo and Joe Kye, as well as other jazz, hip-hop and cross-over ensembles throughout the region. Dario released his debut album of original music, SWEPT, in the winter of 2020, and he looks forward to releasing new collaborative projects this year.

A super special evening with Portland’s own badass DIY rockabilly outlaw country outfit, Jenny Don’t and the Spurs!

ADVANCE TICKETS ONSALE through Ticket Tomato!

Jenny Don’t and the Spurs have spent over a decade forging their own path in music, pioneering a unique brand of high-energy Country Western that captivates fans from the traditional Western scene to the raw energy of garage rock. Their captivating stage presence, infectious enthusiasm, and extensive discography have garnered them a global following, leading to tours on continents rarely visited by country bands.
Jenny Don’t, known for her strong-willed and independent nature, embodies the authentic outlaw spirit of Country Western music. Her songwriting, influenced by the contrasting landscapes of the Pacific Northwest and Southwestern desert, forms the bedrock of their sound. The band skillfully merges their garage-rock origins with a distinct western flair, characterized by driving tempos, gritty fuzz tones, and a high-octane, rockin’ western delivery that sets them apart from the herd. Their music authentically captures the outlaw spirit, with hints of gritty surf like Dick Dale, while paying homage to classic country legends like Johnny Paycheck and George Jones.
Now with Buddy Weeks on drums, the band continues to showcase their resilience and fresh energy. Bass player Kelly Halliburton and lead guitarist Christopher March, whose reverb-drenched tones echo the haunting allure of the desert night sky, round out the core. Jenny Don’t and the Spurs are dedicated to crafting memorable and authentic music, pulling from a variety of genres to emphasize authenticity over conformity. As Jenny says, “We’ve got a lot of open road ahead of us.”
Much like the rhinestones on their custom outfits, handcrafted by Jenny herself, the band shines brightly, illustrating their dedication to creating memorable and authentic music.

A voice that holds both joy and sorrow. Kele’s songs exist in the seam between loss and reconnection. There is so much care and devotion and reverence within this collection, Hymns is an apt title. It reminds me of the story of a man who searched for God, who journeyed far from home until he reached the edge of a cliff, where a great dark void stretched out before him.

“I am here!” the man shouted to the void.

“I am here!” a voice in the void shouted back.

Satisfied, the man returned home, for it didn’t matter whether the voice was God’s, or his own voice echoing back. Either way, he found the kindness and the wisdom he’d been seeking.

It’s my profound pleasure to introduce you to Hymns, and to my dear friend Kele Goodwin, who sings of the journey and of the return, and of the ways we humans reach for one another, in brave acts and tiny gestures, in unsent letters and talismans, with gratitude and wonder.”- Laura Gibson
