JULY
Wed 23 5pm - 7pm
The Freak Mountain Ramblers present a unique blend of Rock 'n Roll, Bluegrass, Alternative Country, and Country Blues. With a lineup including 3 members of the inimitable and notorious Holy Modal Rounders/ Clamtones amalgamation of the '70s and '80s, FMR has its roots in the underbelly of the alternative music scene that existed at that time both in Portland and across the country.
During the past 10 years FMR has accumulated a loyal following in the Portland area by dependably creating beauty and bedlam at their live shows. Unlike any other band in the Pacific Northwest, FMR presents a show where the spotlight rotates among 4 lead singer/songwriters, each with his own distinct character and approach to life and music. The 5th member is a veteran drummer with his own tale to tell, and even an occasional song to sing.
