lt for sweaty floors and shouted choruses.
The River Monsters blend Pyramid Lake garage punk with gritty blues influences. They lean into dirty riffs and a loose, swampy groove that feels both reckless and rootsy.
Crucible is a Reno death metal band known for crushing heaviness and brutal precision. Their sound is dark, aggressive, and unapologetically extreme.
We’ve got another all locals show coming up on 2/22 at @wsm.events! All ages, all free! 🔥🔥🔥
rom John Mehegan, pianist and respected jazz educator at the Julliard School of Music and Yale University. Several years later he met noted bassist David Friesen in NYC and launched a critically acclaimed touring and recording association that lasted 7 years, included 6 albums, and performances in Europe, Canada, USA and Australia. During that time, John also moved to Oregon. Paul Horn, John, David Friesen and Robin Horn were invited to perform in the Soviet Union. It was the first time in 40 years that American jazz musicians had been invited to play public performances in Russia, paving the way for many others to follow. In 1977 Stowell recorded his debut album Golden Delicious; which included pianist Jim McNeely, bassist Mike Richmond, and drummer Billy Hart.
