Hailing from Portland, OR, The Quick & Easy Boys are a power-trio that create their own brand of rock & roll using elements from the Minutemen, the Police, and a Band of Gypsies among others...

Featuring Sean Badders (bass guitar/vocals), Jimmy Russell (lead guitar/vocals) and Tyrone Hendrix (drums/precussion), The Quick & Easy Boys are a driving force in the Portland music scene. On their latest single, "Better than Today", The Quick & Easy Boys show the band expanding their already vast catalog of music to touch on heartbreak with a sound envoking the early ‘60's' R&B/Soul while still keeping a modern sonic vibe. Contextually, lyrics plant the song firmly in the present day, lamenting lost love with a timeless yet subtly modern vernacular.

After releasing eight full-length albums since their inception in 2004, The Quick & Easy Boys have a packed slate for their 20th year as a band. Following the release of "Better than Today", the Boys will shift gears and let forth the Scary Things EP - focusing their already expansive sound on a heavy, dark album about things that go bump in the night....think Sleep meets Funkadelic!

The band adopted the phrase "Too weird to fit in since 2004" to reclaim what once was seen as a promotional nightmare: a genre-defying band that comfortably straddles many musical styles. With countless national tours under their belt the band has played on stage with an extremely diverse selection of musicians from folk troubadour Peter Yarrow (Peter Paul and Mary) to saxophonist/producer Steve Berlin (of the Grammy winning East-L.A. Chicano band Los Lobos) to NOLA funk pioneers The Funky Meters and contemporary indie darlings Deer Tick and even former Fats Domino saxophonist Reggie Houston (to name only a few). The band was always too this for that: too funky for the indie rock crowd but too rocking for the funk crowd. Too country for the dance crowd, but too disco for the country scene. Too raw and psychedelic for the jazz crowd but too musically refined for the punk crowd. The band has unapologetically leaned into their singular sound since the beginning, and now they add more layers with 60's inspired R&B and heavy stoner metal.
