The Stiff Pokes, a band born from years of backyard BBQs and fireside jams. Hailing from the small town of Gaston, OR Isaac Trout (Lead Vocal/Rhythm guitar) has been writing traditional folk style songs with influences from honkytonk, country and blues. For years these songs were only heard by friends and family but along this journey, with a shift to refine and hone the tunes, a trio was formed, Josh Smith (Lead Electric Guitar) and Andy Dawes(Upright Bass) create a new ripple in an evolving sound.
