Nothing says summer like an outdoor concert, especially in Oregon. Since our summer season is short but sweet, you’ll have lots of options for listening to fabulous live music this summer. Midweek, weekends, in town, a little further out, or maybe even quite a drive, you can hardly miss hearing great live music somewhere during every week in June, July and August.

WILLAMINA’S WILDWOOD MUSIC FEST:

Americana and Roots Music Festival - Fri & Sat, July 19th and 20th, 2013One of the most impressive musical lineups appearing in Yamhill County this summer is part of a weekend extravaganza of local and nationally-known musicians in a seemingly unlikely concert venue.If you missed the very first experimental event in 2011 or even last year’s official First Annual Music Fest, you’ll want to save the dates this year and attend the Music Fest at the Roshambo Artfarm in Sheridan, a pastoral setting at the base of the Coastal Foothills just outside Willamina in an ancient basalt rock quarry at the edge of a hay field.

Spotlight on Summer Concerts in Yamhill County

Producers Katie and Meredith Kendall have made preparations for the weekend event, expanding the

music, art, and food options this time around. They are encouraging people to come and camp for one

or two nights but note: NO dogs allowed. Tickets are available through eventbrite. You can find all the info at their website:

Sassparilla Portland, Oregon-based outfit Sassparilla has been referred to as indie-roots, punk-Americana, and punk-roots. But it’s the subtleties and folk-pop leanings of their latest, The Darndest Thing, that find this five-piece band slowing things down a bit – and growing up musically. Sassparilla offers one of the most entertaining, sweaty live shows in the Pacific Northwest.  Complete with dancing, sing-along numbers, and plenty of good times. www.sassparilla.info/home.cfm

Hillstomp Portland Oregon blues duo HILLSTOMP is infamous for digging through the dumps and forgotten backwoods of American music, recycling traditional elements into a refreshing and distinctive brand of do-it-yourself hill country blues stomp. North Mississippi trance blues, a bit of Appalachia, and a dash of punkabilly come clanging and tumbling from assorted buckets, cans and BBQ lids, all drenched in rambunctious slide guitar. www.hillstomp.com

Water Tower After 5 years on the road, 4 albums under their belt and multiple international tours, Water Tower has been brewing up a storm in the folk music world.  They have toured extensively in both the USA and abroad, and performed live on the BBC, NPR, and RTE.  Based in Portland, Oregon these young gents got their start busking on street corners playing traditional old time and bluegrass, eventually honing their sound as a solid dance band playing square dances and bluegrass festivals up and down the west coast. Their latest recording is a 5-song EP recorded in Portland at Type Foundry Studios called “Where the Crow Don’t Fly” and showcases the band’s original songwriting, diverse arranging, and solid playing. www.watertowerbucketboys.com

Truckstop Darlin’ Truckstop Darlin’ comes out of the amazing music scene of the Great Northwest, more specifically, Portland, Oregon. Despite being loud and thundering, Truckstop Darlin’ wear their hearts on their sleeves; if Wilco grew up listening to Lucero’s harder moments, it might sound something like this. Their live shows are a sweaty, fist-pumping riot soaked in cheap beer and whiskey and while most bands who fall under the alt-country umbrella focus more on the country part, Truckstop Darlin’ keeps their amps turned up. These boys play honest, driving rock n’ roll.   www.truckstopdarlin.com

The James Low Western Front The James Low Western Front  is a simultaneously fearsome and droll four-piece band from Portland, Oregon, playing American Roots music with a distinct outsider-country vision. The voice belongs to James Low, both as vocalist and songwriter. www.jameslowwesternfront.com

Oregon-Based Musicians scheduled to perform Some of these artists and musicians may be familiar to you and some may be yet-to-be-discovered favorites in the making.

Jeffrey Martin Writing about things he doesn’t understand helps Jeff Martin make sense of the world around him. The mystery of songwriting is what draws him to the craft, and it is this mystery that leaves the listener breathless and amazed at the remarkable character of this passionate artist. “I don’t sit down to write a song so much as I’m sat down by a song,” Martin will say. A sucker for muddy sounds, he likes the odd hiss and crackle, perhaps a chair squeak, in a recording. It is precisely those sounds that reminds him that a living soul is moving about, pouring their soul into the moment. At just twenty-six years old, Jeff Martin is a product of Eugene, Oregon. www.jeffreymartinmusic.com

Hip Hatchet Hip Hatchet is the songwriting project of Philippe Bronchtein. Based out of Portland, OR, Hip Hatchet presents rustic, carefully orchestrated folk songs. Like the song-smiths before him, Bronchtein places emphasis on the songs’ lyrics that revolve around loneliness, camaraderie, home and love. www.hiphatchet.bandcamp.com

full-length album and will be touring with it soon. This young group has big plans for the future with unparalleled energy and talent, they are a must-hear band. All of the songs are written by Talyor Kingman, and all songs are arranged by the Hill Dogs.

The Harmed Brothers Consisting of lead vocalists Ray Vietti on guitar and Alex Salcido on banjo, Alec La Roche on stand up bass and Ben Kilmer on drums, the band’s origins go back to teenagers playing music in the rural

met. Growing up and going their separate ways, Vietti ended up on the West Coast in Oregon, and the Kilmers on the East Coast in Western North Carolina. It was in the small forest town of Cottage Grove, Oregon, where Vietti met and teamed up with Salcido. In 2010, Ray and Alex released their debut album All The Lies You Want To Hear. The album, and the band’s high-energy stage performance garnered the attention of record labels and producers alike. The Harmed Brothers chose to release their next album on the indie label Lackpro Records. In May 2012, The band released their long-awaited sophomore effort Come Morning.

Ben Rice brings real vintage blues into the modern era. Twisting soul, roots blues, and west coast blues with rockabilly, funk, and rock. Ben Rice, as Lloyd Jones put it, “gets it.” Already established as a virtuosic guitar player, his soulful voice and inventive twists on blues are creating a buzz up and down the West coast. Rice’s last all original CD “Pour Me Some Whiskey” is being praised as being among the best CD releases from the Northwest. Although Rice is young, he is experienced. Playing along with some of the top musicians in the National Blues Scene. First picking up

awards, nominations, and a music degree from the University of Oregon. In a music world saturated with young guitarists, his reputation is building. Not as a “hot rod guitar player” but as a good band leader, great songwriter, wonderful performer, soul inspiring singer, and a guitar player that can do it all, “Of course he does, it’s Ben, he can do everything.”

For many years, the Humlie Kids were weaned on the music of yesteryear. They learned the music song by song, rhythm

music. They would love to record a music album (CD) for all to enjoy their music. In fact they have already begun the recording process, but they need help to go the distance. The Humlie Trio Music is absolutely breathtaking, and highly inspirational. The time has come, and their music is for the time.

Would you like to help them reach their goal? http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mrdeg/the-humlie-trio-music-albumProject by Joshua, Bethany, and Manny Humlie, McMinnville, Oregon

The time has come for us to share our music with you. We are siblings who have been under the influence of music since we can remember.

Since September 2012, Ben Rice has been teaching Jr. High and High School students Mariachi Band instruments at an after school program through the Chehalem Cultural Center in Newberg. The program is supported by the Chehalem Cultural Center, the Newberg Public School District and individuals like you. If you would like to help support this program financially, please contact the Chehalem Cultural Center - 503-487-6883.

Celebrating commitment to our community, Carlton’s Walk in the Park – a benefit for local charities – combines fabulous artists and musicians with outstanding local restaurants and wineries for one magical summer weekend in Yamhill County’s wine country. Last year’s Carlton’s Walk in

the Park was a great success, with both an increase in attendance as well as in income generated from the event. Thanks to all who attended, contributed and volunteered!Since its inception in 2003, Carlton’s Walk in the Park has raised over $225,000 to support local community and civic organizations including food banks, education, police and fire departments and athletics.This grassroots event began with the vision to give back to the communities of Yamhill and Carlton. To date, this event has done so much more. Carlton’s Walk In the Park is more than a summertime celebration.

Graduates recognized for artistic achievementsThe Arts Alliance of Yamhill County presented $1,800 in awards this spring to six graduating seniors from the county’s high schools who have distinguished themselves in the arts.

The $800 Marg Johansen Scholarship went to Bridget Keaveney, a senior at the Sheridan Japanese School. Keaveney has not only excelled in visual arts but also has shared her talents in community service, according to the teachers who recommended her for the award. She is a member of both the National Honor Society and the National Japanese Honor Society. Last year she organized an art show that incorporated themes of acceptance and social issues. This year she has taught eighth- through 12th-grade students a class called Change, in which the history of oppression toward women was discussed, along with ways to address it. She also has been a summer-camp and after-school peer tutor in Japanese. Keaveney plans to major in studio art at Mills College.

The award is named for Marg Johansen, a weaver and educator who died in 2004. She was an active member of the local arts community, and her work can be seen in many locations internationally. The Marg Johansen Scholarship is presented annually by the Arts Alliance of Yamhill County (AAYC) to a graduating high school senior from Yamhill County who exemplifies artistic achievement and intends to pursue further education in an arts-related field, including visual arts, music, dance, theater or creative writing.

The Arts Alliance also presented $200 Student Recognition Awards to five graduating seniors from Yamhill County. These students were nominated by teachers and counselors at their high schools for outstanding achievements in the arts. This year’s recipients were:• Raul Rodriguez, Dayton High School;• Cydney Simpson, McMinnville High School;• Sebrina Arruda, Sheridan High School;• Ida Aaron, Willamina High School;• Matthew Garand, Yamhill-Carlton High School.

AAYC depends on contributions to make these awards possible. To receive further information or make a donation for arts awards, please call (503) 472-3784.

AAYC WELCOMES TWO NEW BOARD MEMBERS

Pat Angland

Meet Pat Angland, who is an incoming member of AAYC’s Board of Directors. She will be serving a two-year term as secretary. She’s been living in Yamhill County since 1992, and retired from McMinnville School District in 2005. Pat has been volunteering, serving on the Education Committee for AAYC since 2005. Pat began her artistic endeavors in second grade as a director of the many variety shows in her neighborhood, and they raised some coin for the

cards and is active in the local group that meets and designs the cards at the McMinnville Senior Center. Creative writing is her newest passion, and Pat is a member of a local writing group. She also has helped with the Terroir Creative Writing Festival for several years. Pat has served on the AAYC Board before, beginning a year or so before Currents Gallery opened on Third Street. She researched cooperatives from British Columbia to Berkeley in the year prior to the opening. She also helped craft the structures that still serve to support the membership. Her two years as acting director of the gallery were active and exciting. She hopes to bring that enthusiasm and energy to the Board of Directors of AAYC. “The Arts Alliance mission, of nurturing the creative spirit in all, is a fabulous goal,” Pat says, “because it is the creative that feeds our spirits.”
