The Paladins Offer Two Oregon Performances

The Paladins from San Diego, California are the preeminent blues/rockabilly band in America. Founded in the early 1980s by guitarist Dave Gonzalez and his high school friend and double bass player Thomas Yearsley, they have recorded five singles, nine full-length studio records, and three live albums. They helped pave the way for the rockabilly craze of the early 1980s, with their tagline at the time “Western & Bop”, as they played a combination of rockabilly and vintage country together with a blues groove. Along the way they built a solid reputation as one of America’s hardest-working and best live bands.

Thirty-seven years later and The Paladins are still at the top of their game with dynamic performances that draw huge crowds. The band will be heading to Oregon for a pair of shows not to be missed.
