With a unique sound somewhere between ragtime, blues, early jazz, and jugband music, the Smut City Jellyroll Society delivers a driving syncopated swing that gets dancers out on the floor. Influenced by artists of the 1920s and 30s like Bessie Smith, The Harlem Hamfats, Memphis Minnie, and Blind Boy Fuller, this wild bunch of fun-loving musicians have a few originals in their repertoire as well.

Josh Cole has been playing bluegrass in the Pacific Northwest for over 25 years. It started in the late 90s, when he first heard "Midnight Moonlight" from Old and In the Way. That moment forever bonded Josh to bluegrass music.

He went on to serve as President of the Oregon Bluegrass Association and continues to host "Music From the True Vine" on KBOO-FM, the longest running bluegrass show West of the Mississippi.

Josh's influences include Ralph Stanley, Larry Sparks, and Bill Monroe, many of whom are featured on the Josh Cole Bluegrass Show, his podcast with nearly 200 episodes of traditional bluegrass recordings.

Josh has played in dozens of bands, along with running his own hard-driving bluegrass band for nearly two decades. That's why hometown fans have lovingly nicknamed him "The Elvis of Portland Bluegrass."

The Polkaticians band was formed in 2018 by Dan and Rob Rayfield. The band is composed of professional, semi-professional and amateur musicians who have "banded" together to play polka and traditional jazz music. They were awarded best musical group at their first public performance in the 2018 Corvallis Holiday Parade. They have followed that with four appearances on a float in the Portland Rose Festival Starlight Parade, opening for a session of the Oregon State Senate, and appearances at both the Mt. Angel and Oaks Park Octoberfest celebrations.
