Daryl Redecker has opened and shared the stage with Phoebe Snow, Cheech and Chong, John Denver, Taj Mahal, and The New Riders of the Purple Sage. He has performed with Danny O’Keeff, Chris Leighton (percussion of the Laura Love band), and his sister Renee'. For 15 years, Daryl and Renee produced 9 albums (1975 thru 1986). All of the albums received air play. We charted in Seattle and were number one for three weeks in Spokane, and throughout the Northwest (Idaho, Oregon and Montana). Daryl has performed solo and as "RedPerl" with Sarah Perlman (Violinist) and has received Kudos from Newsweek and the Wall Street Journal regarding a children’s interactive CD.
Canadian singer-songwriter, Eva Tree (Ay-vah), has just released her second full length CD, Sail Away. She has been compared to other pared down confessional singers like Mindy Smith, Natalie Merchant, and Kasey Chambers. Eva Tree hearkens from the same deep mountain woods of British Columbia as The Be Good Tanyas. She often crossed musical paths with Sam Parton and Frazey Ford (of The BGT's) as she honed her music at tree planting camps, living roots and open mics throughout Canada.

THE FURY BEAT |
Rhythm-oriented pop; a multitude of song styles more-or-less branch out from Soul music (soul, funk, reggae, afro-beat, trip-hop, bossa-nova, etc.)
Instrumentation: Mark sings and plays acoustic and electric guitar, often using an old Akai sequencer as his backing band. The songs are orchestrated using multiple layers of homemade drum samples and an analog synth for basslines. But the main focus is on the voice and the melodies of the songs.
Mark grew up on Vashon Island and started singing rock and folk songs at the age of 19 (started out at an open mic at the Happy Garden Restaurant) and soon formed a band with fellow upstarts Tony Clementi, Kwab Copeland and Josiah Palmer. They were called Grimus, and they started by playing covers of the Clash and the Police along with their nascent attempts at songwriting, but became something of a local sensation for a bit, releasing a couple of cassette albums which still turn up at Granny's Attic on occasion.
But that was the early 90's........after that Mark played in many musical endeavors with many brilliant people including Mike Dumovich, Josh Ayala, and Ron Hook, who was a great role model and guide to him as an artist. Mark moved to Seattle in his late twenties and after immersing himself in city culture and music, he had another burst of creativity. This culminated a body of songs which were composed at the turn of the century which he gave the title of "The Fury Beat" because of his love of the Beat and the furious passion it inspires in people. Mark wanted to make songs that you can move to with lyrics that are sublime and poetic. The bossa nova of Antonio Carlos Jobim was a big influence for him in terms of conveying emotion through pure melody while having an intoxicating rhythm. Mark has never thought of himself as a huge Elvis Costello fan, but he thinks his singing voice owes a lot to him in hindsight. And Mark is a huge fan of many Soul music icons like Curtis Mayfield, Al Green, Bob Marley, James Brown, Fela Kuti.......the list goes on. The work of Radiohead has also been a huge influence on the way Mark thinks about writing.
So after about 8 years of putting his music on hold while he started his masonry business, Mark is bringing The Fury Beat back to the people as a one-man-show. Every time Mark performs will be a little different in terms of the backing music as he plans to regularly remix and rearrange his songs over time. At some point he’ll have a whole drum section backing him up. But for now, it's just Mark.
In the past, some of these songs have been arranged for a large group of players, but for now Mark is opting for giving it a more stripped-down feel and emphasizing the more subtle qualities of playing with an electronic setup. Mark is interested in the use of sampled sound to create a large pallet of musical imagery and mood, which he wants to explore even more. All-Ages FREE COVER!

DUDLY TAFT BLUES OVERKILL |
Dudley Taft grew up in a country called the "Midwest", where he learned the values of friendship, roots blues, rock 'n' roll and a good ear of corn. Local guitar hero Rob Swaynie in Indianapolis taught Dudley the value of music theory interspersed with B.B King, Led Zeppelin and ZZ Top riffs. Taking his newfound skills with him, he founded the band “Space Antelope” with friend Trey Anastasio (of Phish Fame) in high school. Dudley moved to Seattle in the summer of 1990, joining the Seattle band “Sweet Water”. After touring the states with “Monster Magnet”, “Candlebox” and “Alice in Chains”, and recording two albums for Atlantic he left the band to resurrect “Second Coming”. More touring followed with an album on Capitol records and a taste of success thanks to the single “Vintage Eyes” which made it to #10 on the Rock Radio charts. Older and wiser, Dudley has now turned his attention back to the roots of the music that inspired him to pick up the guitar. Dudley is also member of the KZOK band Spike and the Impalers.
Evan Sheeley is one of Seattle’s legendary bassists, having played, recorded and toured with TKO, Q5, and Randy Hansen, among others. A friend of Dudley’s since the early nineties from Seattle Music, Evan is now the owner and operator of Bass Northwest, which has been selling top-end bass gear is Seattle for fifteen years. Evan brings his musical tastes to the songlist as well, with some Hendrix, Jeff Beck Group, Bluesbreakers and more.
Scott Vogel is the type of drummer that never drops a beat. Unassuming and humble, he sometimes scares even himself with his hard-hitting bombastic grooves. While beating around Seattle, Scott recorded for Virgin records with “Reverend” and toured the world (ok, Korea). He is the foundation of Blues Overkill, skillfully moving from shuffle to swing to straight-ahead rock beats. 21+ FREE COVER!
