Vashon Island Music Events: Red Bicycle Bistro — Scattergun and Deadwood Revival

January 28, 2009 at 11:53 pm Leave a comment

SCATTERGUN (Southern Rock/Country/Rock) — 1/31/2009 from 09:30 PM – 21+FREE COVER!

Continuing to map the territory claimed by the likes of Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top, as well as more traditional pioneers such as Bill Monroe, Scattergun puts the hot burn of a whiskey shot back into country rock.

The music of Scattergun gives a nod to the building blocks of country’s namesake and tradition, as well as more modern topics such as low rise jeans, and the need to fight corporate interests to save our small towns, and bi-partisan politics.

Their style definitely lands towards the rock end of country rock, which they have termed “biker country”.

At times serious, other times tongue in cheek, Scattergun makes no apologies for enjoying themselves.

DEADWOOD REVIVAL (Americana/Folk/Bluegrass)1/30/2009 from 09:30 PM – Free

The foot stompin’ tunes of Deadwood Revival will kick into high gear with their return to The Red Bicycle Bistro on Vashon Island, Friday, Jan 30th. This award winning hillbilly jam-grass band with Kim Trenerry, Jason Mogi, Ches Ferguson, and Julie Campbell have an undeniable musical connection as they dish up banjo pickin’, harmony singin’, spirit liftin’ new roots music. The show will start at 9:30pm and there is NO cover charge. “We had a blast when we played here last summer!” Trenerry said.

Deadwood Revival shows are often packed with dancing fans and high spirits. “There’s a great bonding energy to this band. Maybe it comes from their constant gigging or maybe it’s just a good fit between the musicians and patrons. Whatever it is, when they kick in, the room rocks!” explained DwR manager Carol Pope.

The show features their able and inventive twists on clawhammer banjo, acoustic guitar, bass, and fiddle. The ”magnificent vocal blend” between Kim & Jason is so powerful that their voices truly become one. It’s not unusual to find them starting a cozy Dead cover, traveling into an unscripted jam, and easing into one of their own original tunes. The group has been invited to perform for a Dead festival this summer in California.
