Since 2021, Blair has performed over 350 shows across 18 states, captivating audiences with her honest songwriting, lyrical melodies, and intimate performances. She has graced notable stages including Mississippi Studios (Portland, OR), Parlor Room (Northhampton, MA), Radio Bean (Burlington, VT), and Berlin (New York, NY), among many others.

We’re delighted to welcome our friend John Swanke, whose musical explorations never fail to enrapture beyond all our imagining. He’ll be sharing sounds with Ryan Wapnowski (aka Yell Echo) and Pearls Have Eyes. Join us for some dynamic and wildly satisfying sound sculpting.

Boat Dog is the combination of Boon Huish, Cooper Hawley, a couple of voices, a guitar, and a pedal steel. The music is a slightly stripped-down version of what you might find from their respective bands, The Rain Station and Silent Cowboy. Lake Dad will be a bit of a mystery guest, which always intrigues us.

Willie Reavis is a country singer and songwriter from Ferndale, WA. With backing by His Weary Boys, he writes and plays rockabilly, western swing, blues, folk, and country music. He has been performing around the Northwest corner of the country since 2015, and has recorded many of his tunes on the Deck of Cards EP (2016) as well as on the crunchy cassette Early Recordings (OGS-017).

Wild Hearts is a folk-Americana duo from Bellingham, known for heartfelt storytelling and rich harmonies. Cathy Taylor and Kathy Bastow bring their distinctive style to original songs and uniquely arranged covers.

Based in Seattle, West Coast folk artist Bryan John Appleby has been writing, recording, and performing his music for almost two decades. His body of work incorporates breezy mid-century pop, intricate finger-picking, and thoughtful cinematic layers.

His latest full-length, Underwater Easy Breathing, exemplifies his distinct production palette. Lush, coastal, and synth-laced, the album is a natural next step in his wandering, often densely layered repertoire. Previous works include The Narrow Valley (2015), a cinematic, maximalist concept album drenched in dreamy, orchestral elements and experimental sounds, and Fire on the Vine (2011), a darker collection with moreconventional folk structures and organic instrumentation.

With a house show tour circuit taking him throughout the Western States, Appleby has shared the stage with artists such as Damien Jurado, Deep Sea Diver, Tomo Nakayama, Y La Bamba, Shaina Shepherd, Dean Johnson, and Sera Cahoone and many others.

Come enjoy an evening with songwriters Jay Irwin and Pete Keating.  Two former roommates reconnecting after 30 years will provide an evening of original songs, conversation and storytelling as they swap tunes and catch up for the night.

Singer/songwriter and folk musician Brian Martens (Fickle Spring) pioneers his own unique style loosely dubbed "electric-mountain-pirate-folk", a seamless blend of sea shanties, whiskey anthems, folk music, and bluegrass.

Whether solo or playing with friends, Fickle Spring brings a grounded liveliness to his shows, entertaining crowds from campfires to concert venues — slowly and joyfully bringing his music to the world. 

Fickle Spring is currently based in Bellingham, Washington. 

Rob Hutchings is a wordsmith and seasoned guitarist, his songs are a compilation of original stories, musings and mantras written on his path as a musician and mind/body integrative therapist. Currently residing in Bellingham, Wa., Rob originally hails from Britain, attributing his musical lifestyle to his Welsh and Celtic heritage.

Rob's words capture the essence of human relationship in their folk-life quality, while his music style blends the soulfulness of the Blues and the improvisational free-form of jazz, to rhythmically set them free.

"May the wind be your horse for nothing may ride you, may the waves be your force to make it back home..." rh

Aaron Guest (artist name A.Guest) has a new album out, and this time it's all mellow piano instrumentals, written and recorded at home in Bellingham on his piano. The album is called 'Felted' - a locking middle foot pedal lowers a felt cloth between the hammers and strings of the piano, giving it a warm and mellow tone.

He'll be selling vinyl copies of the new album, and playing selected pieces from it as well as a slew of recognizable cover songs (instrumental as well)

Come by, grab a drink or a snack, enjoy the background music, and work on a puzzle by yourself, with a friend, or with a stranger!

A night of country & folk, classics and originals!
