HiLLBiLLY ROBOT "Americana Jukebox"
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Plough & Stars
(see times)
HiLLBiLLY ROBOT returns for round two! The festival, we mean event, runs every weekend in February and features a variety of urban-flavored Americana; from classic country to alt-country to traditional bluegrass to outlaw bluegrass to raw-n-roll blues to indie-pop with hints of twang. This year's event welcomes the return of "Portland Invasion" (yeah!) and new show "Songs of '69: a Tribute to an Amazing Year in Music", plus popular festival mainstays; "Honky-Tonk Showdown", "Bluegrass Bonanza", "Americana Jukebox", and a CD release show! No matter what your listening pallet may be (city or country) we've got a little something for everyone. So break out your bestest overalls, spit-shine your boots, and head on down to Hillbilly Robot for some good old-fashioned downhome music.

NO GOOD REDWOOD RAMBLERS (Arcata, CA)
The Ramblers bring a powerful blend of boot stomping rhythm, old-time flavor, and roots-inspired dance music to their music. They run the gamut from traditional murder ballads and whiskey soaked drinking songs, to Appalachian fiddle tunes and bluegrass standards. With a raucous energy and a sound all their own, the quintet from Humboldt County gets a crowd’s feet to shuffling wherever they go.
