Muddy Waters TributeAlan Hager - Mitch Kashmar - Jimi Bott - Dean Mueller
Four Trains Runnin' is a Muddy Waters Tribute show that features four internationally acclaimed blues musicians who relish in the performance of old school traditional blues. Featuring the songs of Muddy Waters and his influences performed in their original style. This show's artists have accepted many Muddy Awards over their lifetime. Alan Hager on guitar, Mitch Kashmar on harmonica, Jimi Bott on drums, and Dean Mueller on bass.
The leader of the show is 2017 Muddy Award Winner for Best Electric Guitar, Alan Hager. Alan is well known as a master of traditional finger picking guitar and has played in a duo with Curtis Salgado for over a decade performing songs by Muddy Waters and his contemporaries. As a educator, performer, and a lifelong student of the music and life of Muddy Waters, Alan will be sharing with the audience both the music and the history of this great blues legend.
A Muddy Waters shows is not the same without harmonica, and filling the shoes of the great Little Walter will be 2017 Muddy Award winner for Best Harmonica, Delta Groove recording artist and multi-BMA nominee Mitch Kashmar. Mitch has toured the world and shared the stage with some of the most influential blues musicians including John Lee Hooker, Big Joe Turner, Eddie 'Cleanhead' Vinson, Lowell Fulson, Jimmy Witherspoon and many others. Mitch Kashmar also sings many songs for this act and is one of the most soulful and powerful blues singers in the business today, black or white; his blues harp playing is second to none for creativity, drive and excitement.
The 2015 International Blues Drummer of the year Award went to Portland's own, Jimi Bott. An award he has been nominated for a record 19 times. Jimi has received so many CBA Best Drummer Muddy Awards that they named the awards after him and is a member of the Hall of Fame. With over 90 CD's in his discography and a member of some of the greatest traditional blues bands, including The Fabulous Thunderbirds and The Mannish Boys, there is no one better or more qualified in the world to bring the old school blues drumming to this show.
Finally, on the upright bass will be the multi Muddy Award winning Dean Mueller. Dean was a founding member of the 2008 BMA nominee for Best New Act, The Insomniacs. As a faculty member at Port Townsend Blues workshop, Dean has had the opportunity to play upright bass with many of the blues greats including Louisiana Red, Cephas & Wiggins, John Dee Holman, Rich Delgrosso, and many more. As one of the dwindling few who still play blues on the doghouse, he will deliver the blues bass as it was originally conceived.

Now in her fifty-seventh year, LaVette’s career began in 1962 at the age of sixteen, and she’s received Grammy nominations, won a WC Handy Award for Comeback Blues Album in 2004, and Blues Music Awards for Contemporary Female Artist and Soul Blues female Artist, plus she has received the prestigious Pioneer Award from The Rhythm & Blues Foundation.

In his nearly fifty-year career, former Led Zeppelin vocalist and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Robert Plant has explored far distant lands, though not as forlorn lover, but rather as an intrepid musical explorer. While writing and producing his new album, “lullaby and…The Ceaseless Roar,” Plant returned to his native England enriched by all he has experienced and investigated. For the last several years Plant lived and recorded in America. He worked with musicians in Nashville, resided for a spell in Austin, and made time to drive along the byways of Mississippi, fueled by the sound of the delta blues that has inspired him since he was teenager (a car journey recollected in the tune “Turn It Up”). Previously he had traversed North and West Africa, followed the trail of the blues back to the desert, where he famously joined nomadic Tuareg musicians and others at the renowned Festival of the Desert in Essakene, Mali. But now, Plant’s creative wanderings have led him back to his native England and to a rediscovery and reappraisal of himself as an artist and songwriter.
Les Schwab Amphitheater, 44 SW Shevlin Hixon Dr, Bend. Thursday, October 3. 6:30 pm. Tickets $59.50 to $119.50 available at Bendconcerts.com. All ages.

Lake Theater & Cafe106 N State StLTCLake Oswego, OR 97034(503) 482-2135Her appearance belies a superhuman ability to turn her hands into hyperactive blues finger-picking machines…' - WILLAMETTE WEEK
'Superlative…such a high level of proficiency that your heart will beat faster and your blood race.' - DOWNBEAT Magazine
Mary Flower’s award-winning fingerpicking guitar and lap-slide prowess is soulful and meter-perfect. When she joins with the BBQ Boys, a joyous blend of blues, ragtime and swing is born.
The BBQ Boys are a 4 piece Jazz, blues and jug band that has performed with many well known artists such as Jim Kweskin, Geoff Muldaur, Maria Muldaur, John Sebastian, David Grisman, Dan Hicks and Mary Flower.
Originally the Barbecue Orchestra, it was started by famed washtub bass and jug blower Fritz Richmond (of the original Jim Kweskin Jug Band) and Turtle VanDemarr (guitar player with Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks). In 2008 Fritz passed on to jug band heaven and Turtle began playing music in his daughter’s band. The remaining members Stew, Spud and Doc added (after many agonizing tryouts) a sousaphone player par excellence, Mark.
The BBQ Boys have played many concerts with Jim Kweskin and the Jug Band, in San Francisco’s Great American Music Hall, The Roots and Rhythm Festival in Providence,R.I., Club 47 in MA, The Waterfront Blues Festival in Portland,OR and The National Jug Band Jubilee in Louisville, KY.
In 2013 they joined forces with Mary Flower as a jazz and blues infected jug band (sans jug) and have created new masterpieces of old standbys and originals by Mary and Spud, adding rich harmonies and searing solos.
The BBQ Boys are:
Stew Dodge on fiddle and vocals.
Spud Siegel on mandolin, mandola and vocals.
Doc Stein on dobro, guitar and vocals.
Mark Vehrencamp on sousaphone.Bayou Boyz with Jimmy Russell **

Polaris Hall635 N. KillingsworthPHNKPortland, ORBLACK JOE LEWIS AND THE HONEYBEARS AT POLARIS HALL
Texas native Black Joe Lewis discovered his love for the blues soon after learning to play guitar in his late teens. "I grew up on hip-hop and whatever my dad was listening to-Springsteen and Curtis Mayfield and Donny Hathaway. Once I picked up the guitar I started getting into the deep cuts," Lewis recalls. Naming Lightnin' Hopkins and Iggy Pop among his main inspirations, he formed Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears in 2007, releasing his major label debut the following year.
Known for their incendiary, full-throttle live show, Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears are currently on tour in support of their latest release, “The Difference Between Me and You.” The influence of Albert King’s heavy grooves, R.L. Burnside’s punked-up blues, Bobby “Blue” Bland’s storytelling, and The Rolling Stones’ soulfully layered horns are all omnipresent throughout the album.

Aladdin Theater3017 SE Milwaukie Ave,ALADOR 97202(503) 234-9694JJ Grey: North Florida Sage and Soul-Bent Swamp Rocker
Onstage, JJ Grey delivers his songs with compassion and a relentless honesty. From his days of playing greasy local juke joints to now headlining major festivals, he remains an unfettered, blissful performer, singing with a blue-collared spirit over the bone-deep grooves of his compositions. His presence before an audience is something startling and immediate, at times a funk rave-up, other times a sort of mass-absolution for the mortal weaknesses that make him and his audience human.
The farms and swamps of his youth are as much a part of Grey's music as the Louisiana swamp-blues tradition or his collection of old Stax records. As a boy, Grey was drawn to country-rockers and the luminaries of Memphis soul, along with the street sounds of Run-DMC. Merging these traditions, and working with a blue-collar ethic that brooked no bullshit, Grey began touring as Mofro in the late '90s, with backbeats that crossed Steve Cropper with George Clinton

Star Theater13 NW 6th AveSTTPortland, ORChristone “Kingfish” Ingram: Fish Grease: A Juke Joint Tour
Once a generation, a blues artist comes along who not only reminds mainstream audiences how deeply satisfying and emotionally moving the best blues music can be, but shakes the genre to its core. With both eyes on the future and the blues in his blood, 20-year-old guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter Christone "Kingfish" Ingram is set to take the music world by storm with the long-awaited release of his debut album on Alligator Records (see review in this edition of Bluesnotes). Sprung from the same earth as so many of the Delta blues masters, Kingfish comes bursting out of Clarksdale, Mississippi, and although he grew up near the crossroads where Robert Johnson allegedly cut a deal with the devil, Kingfish insists he didn't do any of that to make his guitar howl the blues. "I just practice all the time," he says, "that's the only deal I made, and it's with myself. . . I do think I have an old soul, that I've been here before. I'm moving forward with one foot in the past."

Peyton, the world’s foremost country blues finger-style picker, along with the Big Damn Band is known for its live shows. Rev. Peyton delivers guitar pyrotechnics the old-fashioned way — ten fingers, a 6 string and an amp cranked at full tilt. In the country blues style, he plays the bass with his thumb, while picking the lead with his fingers at the same time. Beside him on stage are his wife, “Washboard” Breezy Peyton playing with all the nuance and percussive power of a New Orleans drum line, and keeping the train moving is Max Senteney on a lean drum kit including a 5 gallon maple syrup bucket. Together they play Peyton’s wildman country blues that’s as much ZZ Top as it is Bukka White.

With contrasting blood-harmonies and left-handed/right-handed guitar playing, singer-songwriter duo The Talbott Brothers combine rock, blues and pop with honest storytelling. Nick and Tyler were born and raised in Imperial, a small town in Southwestern Nebraska, just a stone’s throw from the Colorado border. They began writing and performing together before relocating to their mother’s birthplace of Portland, Oregon. The brothers discovered their love of music after digging their dad’s old dreadnaught guitar out of the basement and teaching themselves to play along to Johnny Cash, Bob Seger and the Beatles on vinyl.
Following the release of 2017’s Gray, they found themselves in front of sold out crowds in the US and sharing the stage with ZZ Ward, Johnnyswim and AJR. Ear to the Ground Music dubbed the record as one of the ‘Top 5 Albums of the Year’ stating it as, “equal parts optimistic and captivating, inspiring and hopeful.” Through rigorous touring and over half a million streams on Spotify, they continue to build a strong and loyal fanbase wherever they go.

These boys can play! Together they are are a stellar collective of soul - a sonic brotherhood with a spiritual connection - musical soul mates.
A co-op of gifted composers and arrangers take the the listener on a journey of musical twists and turns, breathing new life into some classic themes and breaking ground on a new frontier of original sounds. SOULMATES elicit a variety of musical moods and emotions: One moment up and jumping, the next they will go deep and hypnotic. Then it’s on to a travelogue of world rhythms and cultures, playfully tossing a ball of invisible musical energy amongst themselves. Sultry jazz sounds, stinging blues and raw funk can converge seamlessly, and then may segue into some flat out 'baby making music'! This is all wrapped up with a lot of love and an infectious groove of all their own.
Drawing from a deep well of seemingly infinite artistry, SOULMATES fill the venue with their musical message of love, peace and soul. Close brothers from different mothers, as one they speak a sonic word that can have a healing effect on mind, body and spirit. Soul to Soul, they strive to become one with their audience. Communicating on deeper and higher levels of consciousness they strive always toward aesthetic ecstasy. This is true music magic!
Spreading the love, one show at a time.

Alberta Street Pub1036 NE AlbertaASPPortland, 97211(503) 284-7665This is a band of good friends having fun playing original music and relevant covers in a genre they call “electric roots”. If you’re not sure what that is think Tom Waits, Bonnie Raitt, Tedeschi-Trucks with a splash of D'Angelo. Bre’s soulful vocals and Dan’s screaming guitar prowess front the band as they masterfully pass the lead back and forth in a musical communication that is both powerful and organic. Backed by groove masters Jeff Langston on bass and Charlie Dogett on drums, they create a sound you can’t help but feel.

“If surf guitar god Dick Dale found himself in Bogie’s Maltese Falcon film-noir underworld, and drank beer at the seedy bar with bluesmen Jimmy Reed and Magic Sam, the resulting soundtrack might be exactly what the Strange Tones purvey.” - Oregonian
