Bio:
United for the sole purpose of spreading a love of funk, reggae, ska, and rock, The Badfish Band imparts talent, passion, and a festive stage show to eager fans. Though creatively conspiring in Corvallis, OR, The Badfish Band draws inspiration from each members varied origins, including Southern jam band influence of Curtis Monette (lead guitarist/vocals), and the Hawaiian reggae roots of Matt Urabe (vocals/keyboards/tenor saxophone). Grant Thomas (trombone,) Evan Churchill (trumpet,) and Rob Pawlowski (trumpet) combine to add a vivid layer of horns onto an already fulfilling musical experience. Kailana Baldwin-Francis (bass/vocals) and Lance Lacey (drums) fuse to complete a rhythm section worthy of replacing your Grandfather’s funkiest of clocks. All congealed behind the polished melodies and entertaining banter of Johnny Desmarteau (vocals/rhythm guitar) the Badfish Band is capable of provoking the dance moves out of any concert goer.

Bio:
Evan Churchill started Break As We Fall a few years ago as just one facet of his varied musical life, penning songs deeply rooted in the diverse sounds of his childhood, from Sandoval to Smokey. Alot of late nights, a few member changes, and a mile or two on the Jetta later, the lineup of Break As We Fall has been solidified and the band became just that, a band. With a collaborative catalog of new and old tunes and a kinetic live show, Break As We Fall has only begun show fans what they are capable of ....

Bio:
Portland Oregon junkbox blues duo HILLSTOMP is infamous for digging through the dumps and forgotten backwoods of American music, recycling traditional elements into a refreshing and distinctive brand of do-it-yourself hill country blues stomp. North Mississippi trance blues, a bit of Appalachia, and a dash of punkabilly come clanging and tumbling from assorted buckets, cans and BBQ lids, all drenched in rambunctious slide guitar. Somehow it works.
Despite their homemade instruments and novel approach, Hillstomp is no novelty act.
Hillstomp's memorable live performances tap into a magic that cannot be rehearsed, converting outlaws and traditionalists alike from skeptics into preechers.
After two widely-acclaimed studio albums, the band hopes to capture some of that live energy on a new album titled After Two but Before Five. The album was recorded live recently on two nights in the Northwest.
