LWO brings a fresh take on what many perceive to be "the" music from the great swing era with a repertoire that delves further into the less commercially recognized artists, along with some of the more obscure tunes crafted by the more familiar big names of the genre. Oh... and yes, you will hear a few of your favorite standards, with some blues thrown in for good measure as well! This opportunity to experience an evening of great music on a grand scale in a fun, relaxed, and intimate environment is just the ticket for music lovers craving the answer to the question, "What's good 'n' hot in Portland?") Tuesday March 2nd, 6-8pm - HAPPY HOUR with Keeter Stuart Band (country) $2 Tuesday March 2nd, 9:30pm - The Dover Weinberg Quartet (All-star blues/eclectic rhythm & blues/swing, featuring Dover Weinberg, Chris Carlson, Dave Khal & Johnny Corey.) Wednesday March 3rd, 6-8pm - HAPPY HOUR with Northwesternaires $2 (The Northwesternaires are a Texas-style dance band, bringing together classic country gold (from Bob Wills to Ray Price and back again) with a smattering of originals from vocalist/guitarist Chris Miller. The Northwesternaires also include such luminaries as Kevin Healy on fiddle and Pat Goodbla on bass and vocals (known among the national Western Swing scene for their work in Longhorn), as well as guitarist/vocalist/emcee Ian Miller and steel guitarist Russ Blake (both from Lisa and Her Kin). Keeping the toe-tappin', two-steppin' beat going is Dangerous Don Lawry (of The Troublemakers and Joy and Her Sentimental Gentlemen), not to mention guest spots by whatever talent may be lurking in the crowd on any given night!) Wednesday March 3rd, 9:30pm-12:30am - Blues Jam with Suburban Slim, Jeff Strawbridge & Marco Savo - $2 cover. Thursday March 4th, 6-8pm - HAPPY HOUR with Pete Krebs' Portland Playboys (Hailing from rainy Portland, Oregon, the Pete Krebs Trio can be found performing somewhere around town almost every night of the week-- clubs, pubs, restaurants, old man bars and gas stations-- playing their own music, a mix of hillbilly swing, gypsy jazz and tunes from the Great American Songbook. Led by guitarist and vocalist Pete Krebs, the Trio features Keith Brush on upright bass and David Langenes on guitar. Formed in 2006, the Trio has appeared nationally as well as internationally and has been featured on Oregon Public Broadcasting's 'Art Beat', KMHD's 'Home Grown Live' and both the Portland and Cathedral Park Jazz Festivals and the PDX Lindy Exchange. The band's sound is timeless, equal parts Texas roadhouse, Paris dive bar and New York's sonic landscape. A regional favorite of the northwest swing dance community, the Trio often find themselves shaking the shack for dancers and listeners alike. As they like to say, it's "music for your drinking, dining and dancing pleasure." C'mon out to a show and say howdy, we'd love to see you there!) Thursday March 4th, 9:30pm-12:30am - Big Monti (His name is Monti Amundson but most people call him Big Monti. Not just because of the man’s physical appearance, but because of his larger than life voice, guitar virtuosity, and sheer presence. When Big Monti takes the stage, it’s clear that there’s more going on than the usual extended guitar solos-– the man plays and sings larger than life. Monti’s breakout band, The Blubinos (pronounced blue-bye-nose), were a dominant force in the Northwest music scene from 1987 to 1992 and shared concert stages with some of the biggest names in the business, including John Lee Hooker, Johnny Winter and Buddy Guy. In 1991 The Blubinos won Portland Music Association’s award for Outstanding Blues Act. In 1993 Monti signed on with Munich Records in Holland and promptly moved his headquarters to Amsterdam. Over the next six years Monti recorded five albums and toured extensively in Europe, developing a huge fan base. When Monti gets compared to Stevie Ray Vaughan or Johnny Winter he just says “thank you.” The fact is, the big man has his own style. “I’m a blues guitar player in a band that plays rock 'n' roll,” is how Monti explains it. He doesn’t so much as straddle the line between the genres as bend it, ignore it, or race back and forth across it until both sides go up in flames. The blues of Big Monti comes straight from the heart, cuts through your soul and is as real as it gets.) Friday March 5th, 6-8pm - HAPPY HOUR with Bridge Creek (country/roots) Friday March 5th - David Vest (David Vest was NW blues legend Paul deLay's sidekick for a number of years before joining the Northwest PIANORAMA tour with D.K. Stewart and Kenny Blues Boss Wayne. He played his first gig in 1957, jammed with Big Joe Turner in the '60s, and has toured with Jimmy T99 Nelson, Floyd Dixon, and Lavelle White. Along the way he wrote the first songs ever recorded by country legend Tammy Wynette, played for a gospel quartet, backed Red Foley at a show where all the stars got robbed, and became the first American artist ever to record an album in Romania.) Saturday March 6th - Lenny Rancher & The Carlyle Group with Steve Hettum & Janglers (roots rock) Church of Surf & The Chakra Dancers (surf guitar) Sunday March 7th - Closed Monday March 8th -
Petunia & The Vipers (country
From Vancouver BC) (PETUNIA & THE VIPERS play a wide variety of musical

the rockabilly and western swing end of the spectrum. In fact, they play a
majority of rockabilly and Western swing styled music in their shows. Mostly,
crowds cry out for Petunia originals though. The band members themselves are
mostly from rockabilly/Western swing heritage.

Candye Kane
("Superhero" is the name of Candyes' original song and the
title of her latest CD for Los Angeles based label, Delta Groove records. It is
also an apt description of the jump blues singer and songwriter from East Los
Angeles who has earned this moniker the hard way. Nominated for three 2010
National Blues Foundation Awards for
BB King Entertainer of the Year, Best Blues Contemporary CD and Best
Contemporary Blues Female (the highest honor for blues artists) and beating down
pancreatic cancer in the last two years, Kane is one tough cookie. She has
performed worldwide for presidents and movie stars but her path to success was
not always glamorous or easy.
