The Strange Tones
with DK Stewart
Waterfront Blues Festival
Portland, OR.
July 4, 2014

Another year of WBF recordings. Recorded from KBOO FM in Portland, OR. A great lineup again this year. I was looking forward to Greg Allman's set, but he had to pull out due to sickness. Oh well, I wouldn't have been able to share him here anyway. Seems to be much more DJ talking this year, interrupting some music. I just left it in rather than trying to edit each show. Feel free to make any changes you wish for personal use.

I may need help with some of the set list's as I don't know all the bands.

Enjoy, twofthrs

The Strange Tones have blended a unique concoction of original blues, rockabilly, surf, and vintage R&B, and finished it off with a private-eye twist. They�ve shaken and stirred these elements into their own distinctive sound and style they call �Crime-A-Billy.� Their originality and extraordinary stage show have been widely recognized, including an induction into the Cascade Blues Association�s Hall of Fame and a multitude of awards for Best Contemporary Blues Act, Best Northwest Recording, Best Electric Guitar, and Best Male Vocal.

On their return to the Waterfront Blues Festival main stage, the Strange Tones will also feature the band's talented and tasteful dancers, the Volcano Vixens, and a rare guest performance by keyboard legend DK Stewart. The one-of-a-kind choreography and playful style of the Vixens perfectly compliment the band�s dynamic live show. Stewart is a true dignitary of the Northwest blues scene who leads his own highly successful band The DK Stewart Sextet, along with other high-profile projects, among them �Tell Mama: A NW Tribute to Etta James.� Stewart also played on The Strange Tones latest CD, At Home With The Strange Tones. You won�t want to miss this collaborative bluesy adventure in the world of Crime-A-Billy!
