Josh Cole Band and Filthy Skillets at the Showdown PDX!

Josh Cole Band – Josh Cole has been playing bluegrass in the Pacific Northwest for over 25 years. It started in the late 90s, when he first heard “Midnight Moonlight” from Old and In the Way. That moment forever bonded Josh to bluegrass music. Josh’s influences include Ralph Stanley, Larry Sparks, and Bill Monroe, many of whom are featured on the Josh Cole Bluegrass Show, his podcast with nearly 200 episodes of traditional bluegrass recordings.

Filthy Skillets – The Filthy Skillets are a Portland based bluegrass band hailing from around the globe. They put their own twist on Traditional Bluegrass, honoring the foundation while continuing to add their own flavor. The Filthy Skillets play everyone from original tunes to Bluegrass standards and their own interpretation of music from other genres including classic country, western swing, and rock and roll.

21+ show. Doors at 7pm. $10 cover.
