|  | The Water Tower Bucket Boys Hailing from Portland, Oregon, the Water Tower Bucket Boys play raw, hard-driving music with tight harmonies and virtuosic instrumental work. After four years, three studio recordings, appearances on NPR and BBC radio, and successful tours of the US and UK, the boys are poised to take the world of acoustic music by storm.
The Water Tower Bucket Boys got their start busking on the street corners of Portland and playing for local square dances. Honing their abilities as a solid dance band up and down the west coast, the boys perfected their unique style, drawing from classic bluegrass, old-time, and country. Equally influenced by the raw sound of 78 era artists as the uninhibited energy of punk rock, their wide diversity of inspirations distinguishes them from other string bands.
On stage, they play their hearts out, giving their all and constantly pushing each other in exciting musical directions. Their lightning performances and charismatic stage presence will invigorate audiences of all ages. 3.30pm - 6.30pm |

The energy from their lightning stage performances will literally plow through you as you are transcended to another place and time. The Water Tower Bucket Boys got their start busking on the street corners of Portland and enlivening local square dances. Honing their sound as a solid dance band, playing up and down the west coast, as well as in the east, the boys have perfected their unique style, drawing from classic bluegrass, old-time, and country songs. Their original repertoire, heavily influenced by blues and country, distinguishes them from other string bands. This one-of-a-kind sound has been influenced and shaped by almost every genre of American music. Just like the traditional songs, their originals works will take you on an entertaining roller-coaster of emotions, while still maintaining that "high-lonesome" integrity. Whether busking on the streets of downtown Portland or traveling around the world, their infectious love of the music spreads far and wide. 4pm - 7pm |
