KishRIFFS
Singer, songwriter, and bandleader of the local alt-rock, indie-ska band The Full Uplift, Stephen Kish is an engaging big, barrel-chested troubadour, singing original songs about the human condition: Sometimes fun and frolicky, but also cognizant of the struggles we all face in this wonderful journey, hurtling through the vast darkness and vacuum of space. He's also unearthed many classics, some eclectic B-sides, and seldom heard Pub songs on the fringe. His "Riff-acana" guitar style is based on folk/rock/fingerpicking/and Blues & Rock influences from the Golden Era of guitar heroes: altered tunings and higher soni-consciousness. "Fun guitar playing, Fast Riffs and Heavy Energy sing alongs!

Living Room
You would think that mixing two Millenials with a Gen X and a Boomer would lead to immediate band breakup but somehow these good souls have defied the odds to bring you a pleasant groove, cafe-esque approach to songs new (ish) and old. And some danceable numbers. Our goal is a great deck vibe and seeing happy customers eating rice with rhythm. Caitlin Cordell singing clear and sweet, Andy McConkey singing with heart and soul, Benjamin Washam singing and playing about everything and Curtis Edwards bringing his baritone and bass lines.
Lawrence Jazz Duo
Bossa nova, Swing, Bebop, reimagined covers, and original songs where guitar builds the foundation for the melodies and solo improvisations of the tenor ukulele. Dale's lush guitar work uses bass lines, chord stylings and rhythm that supports Shelly's warm tones on the tenor uke.
Decades of performances up and down the west coast at wineries, art galleries, and restaurants have helped the duo create an intimate sound that is both easy listening and detailed jazz at the same time.
The Full Uplift
The Full Uplift is an explosive rock band that prides itself in fast riffs and heavy energy sing alongs. Ska-punk, alt-rock, and indie influences, a heavy dose of '70's guitar riff sensibility, and the urgent BIG SOUND of '90's grunge....there's also a hint of reggae in there. All guaranteed to get you movin' and a shakin' with groovy dancy fist pumping vibes!
