HILLFOLK NOIR

Grooving. Raucous. Genre-bending. And always a ton of fun.

Built on more than 20 years of Junkerdash tradition, today’s Hillfolk is rooted in the band’s song craftsmanship. From spiral-bound mountains of frontman Travis Ward’s ragged notebooks comes the hard and the tender. Hillfolk Noir can blow the roof off the place, or draw you around the fire with their earnest musical narratives of the back alleys, the open range, and the front porch. They paint with sound the earnest stories about the lives of lovers, law-breakers, and the lion-hearted: heroes and outcasts alike. You can expect a bevy of acoustic instruments and a ton of songs.

WALSY & THE RIVERDOGS

Walsy & the Riverdogs is a western-punk trio with an original and unique blend of American and Irish roots music, spaghetti western landscapes mixed with old school surf and punk rock. Based out of Southern Idaho, the Riverdogs formed accidentally in the winter of 2024 featuring 3 great friends and veteran musicians Wes Walsworth guit-twanger and singer-songwriter, Cameron Bouiss Percussion ninja along with thunderous bass bottoms by Kyle Moore on the upright. The trio takes listeners on a dynamic musical journey from the dusty Idaho mountain trails to the wide-open salty seas. Driving rhythms, reverb drenched gritty guitar and signature originals get the crowd stomping. The band has been working on their sophomore release “Juanita’s Quest for Gold” the last several months and plan to unleash it sometime in 2026. They will also be playing select shows in the PNW.
