Tue May 21 The Drowns
The Drowns! Punk! Featuring members of Success, Shell Corporation, Time Again and Madcap, The Drowns is a new band that seemingly came out of nowhere. Expect to hear ten street punk jams of the highly melodic variety. Think Red City Radio meets Bouncing Souls and... well, the other bands these guys still play or have played in. While being ridiculously catchy at times, they still pack plenty of grit that can peel the bark off of a tree.

Wed May 22 Bridge City Sinners
Bridge City Sinners! Folk Punk, Punk Rock! This is not your Grandparents' folk music. The Bridge City Sinners take folk songs in the direction of a punk rocker. A rowdy folksy mosaic of banjo, violin, guitar, upright bass, ukulele and saw. The Sinners started their journey as a rotating cast of friends in 2016 who just wanted to play music on the streets "busk" in Portland, Oregon. They have transitioned into a powerful force playing festivals in 2018 such as Vans Warped Tour, NW String Summit, the Fest, & Seattle Folklife Festival.
