Friday Night Headliner: Chicken @#it Gamblers
Raunchy. Crass. Spirited. Bluegrass genre music playing for the joy of music. The Chicken $#!t Gamblers formed in 2017 when Luke Maddux (Guitar) and Neil Mangrum (Guitar) with Aaron Meader (Mandolin) met at Friends picking circles. The trio brought Jaimie Meldrum (Fiddle) and Bassist Jess Kunze (also of Countryside Ride) into the group and the chemistry of the unit congealed. Over the next year, they honed their harmonies, and sounds and pushed harder into melting bluegrass pickin’, rhythmic jams, pop culture inspired bluegrass medleys and smooth 3-part vocal harmonies. Longtime band friend Rory Johnson (Banjo) joined in 2019, the group has locked into a steady rhythm of performing rowdy and explosive shows around the pacific northwest. Ronnie Ontiveros jumped into the Bass slot in 2022 after Jess left to pursue a Bakery/coffeeshop business in Trout Lake.
The band is happy to be back on the touring and festival circuit again in 2022 following some weird 2020-2021 live music juju that saw them recording, performing at PDX couch tour, and several outdoor, limited attendance gigs.
Saturday Night Headliner: Whiskey River
America’s #1 Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute Band! For over four decades Whiskey River’s musicians have thrilled audiences all over America playing the music of the legendary southern-rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd. Recreating the image and the music of the southern rock band that took the world by storm in the 1970’s. Whiskey River not only plays Lynyrd Skynyrd, they personify the group onstage. Through their serious and tireless commitment to the original Ronnie Van Zandt era Lynyrd Skynyrd, they have deconstructed and reconstructed every detail of every part of every song from the original band’s recordings. Their 30+ year history of phenomenal performances have earned them the title: “America’s #1 Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute Band”. Their show is primarily a re-presentation of the multi-platinum album “One More From the Road” and “Freebird the Movie”. The show is also augmented by several classics from the original band’s last album “Street Survivors.” Whiskey River’s Tribute brings the audience back in time thirty-five years as they blaze
