The PotatoesThe Potatoes are a five-member band from Portland, with a wonderful mix of sound from guitar, drums, accordion, trumpet, and vocals. They mainly sing sad songs, but mix it up with friendly banter in the live show and a stage presence with says, "We're all in this together." Like our friend Kurt Vonnegut, The Potatoes are here to help us all get through this thing, whatever it is.https://thepotatoes4.bandcamp.com/

Joel Martin from ToledoJoel Martin is a songwriter from Toledo, Washington - hence the moniker "Joel Martin from Toledo," Joel's songs are a fascinating combination of deep lyrics and intricate melodies, which inspire and keep you on your toes. Joel has a talent for weaving various themes (such as mortality, baseball, nature, spirituality, and more) into songs which are very pleasant to listen to. Joel currently lives on the central coast of Washington State and enjoys sharing his music around the Northwest.
