The Dusty 45's
Waterfront Blues Festival
Portland, OR.
July 4, 2013

Again this year recorded from KBOO FM 90.7 here in Portland. A volunteer radio station that has broadcast the festival each and every year. It has become a huge festival & we stopped going due to the big crowds. I now record all that I can & enjoy sharing with you all. As with any all volunteer station there are a few blurps along the way, which I have "fixed" as well as I can. Enjoy, twofthrs

The Dusty 45s have been thrilling crowds for over a decade. Readers of the Seattle Weekly voted them �Best of Seattle� three years in a row. They have a reputation for firing up the crowd and delivering rockin�, high-energy music to keep fans on their feet. Over the years, the group has devoured styles ranging from twang country, jump blues, surf, and pure rock & roll and mixed-in elements from influences such as Dixieland and Jazz. Now they serve up a sizzling sound all their own.

Singer/songwriter and front man Billy Joe Huels leads the band with an engaging, charismatic stage presence, rippin� guitar, and trumpet. By the end of the show, Huels' trumpet is on fire � literally. His original songs are delivered with panache by Seattle�s finest roots-rock wrecking crew: Jerry Battista on lead guitar, Kelly Van Camp on drums, and Jeff Gray on upright bass. No wonder the quartet was tapped to back �The Queen of Rockabilly� and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, Wanda Jackson. They toured throughout the West with Ms. Jackson, opening for Grammy winning artist, Adele.

In 2007, Huels starred as Buddy Holly in 5th Avenue Theater�s production of �The Buddy Holly Story.� With a deep discography, thousands of miles on the tour-van odometer, and a committed fan base in the western US and Europe, the Dusty 45s are a talented band with a creative fire that burns bright.
