POLECAT & THE QUICK AND EASY BOYS W/ THE TRUE SPOKES @ STAR THEATER (PORTLAND)

Star Theater, 13 NW 6th Ave, Portland, OR

Join Polecat, The Quick and Easy Boys and The True Spokes at Star Theater for a special Winter Warmer event!! POLECAT is one of the most exciting and talented young bands in the US right now, mixing Bluegrass, Country, Celtic, Rock, Funk, World and Reggae together with very hot chops to form their own Americana Stomp-Grass World Music. The core audience of Polecat is, well, everybody. There is a sense of mass appeal attached to Polecat for it's unique take on bluegrass, as well as an acknowledged respect for their honest approach to their genre. Their music celebrates life, love, and good times, and it reflects on the faces of the players and their audience.


THE QUICK & EASY BOYS are a power-trio out of Portland, Oregon, create their own blend of funky R&B, psychedelic rock, and garage pop with a slight pinch of honky-tonk. Imagine the Minutemen, My Morning Jacket and Funkadelic rolled into one. Their shows are an interactive party with electrifying stage antics and profound musical moments as the trio pours out every ounce of their energy, leaving nothing behind. The band has gained the reputation for moving a crowd all-night long whether it be a big festival or a tiny watering hole.

THE TRUE SPOKES are a Seattle quintet (formerly Flowmotion) who through a decade of fearless, seat-of-the-pants music-making, countless live performances, and a handful of beloved albums has developed that rare, magnetic combination of radio-ready songcraft and transportive instrumental chops. Through their annual Summer Meltdown festival—held in the beautiful Cascade mountains 12 years running—they’ve cultivated a legion of die-hard fans thirsty for unique music uniquely performed. Theirs is a musical ethos that’s both timeless and totally of the moment.
