Hit Machine (July 25)
Hit Machine is a band you will never forget. Created by Bart Hafeman, the energy projected from this 4 piece band is highly contagious to say the least.
The band plays hits from all eras as it’s not uncommon to here Stayin’ Alive (Bee Gees), Kiss (Prince) and Takin' Care of Business (BTO) all in the same set. The band has synchronized dance moves and many appropriate ways to involve the crowd in the performance to make it an unforgettable event.
Hit Machine specializes in serving up the best hits from the 70's and 80's no matter what musical genre the hit came from. Hit Machine has played many high profile local events form the Vancouver 4th of July festival, Hood 2 Coast and The Portland Trailblazer playoff games. This band is fun for all ages!

THE LUGNUTS fame spread beyond the Pacific Northwest, dazzling audiences from Washing‐ ton State to Washington, D.C. Their performances have been enthusiastically received at cor‐ porate parties, civic celebrations, fairs, fund raisers, concert halls, conventions and televised events.

Rhythm Culture has been playing the Pacific Northwest music and festival scene for over 11 years. The Band has placed its focus on developing its own signature sound driven by a reggae beat. Combining their individual influ‐ ences of the Caribbean and the Americas, and using a roots reggae founda‐ tion, the band infuses blues and jazz into their brand of Reggae music, guaran‐ teed to get even the most reluctant of dancers out of their chairs. The band is based in Portland, Oregon and led by Byron Mercurius, of Guyana, South America. Rhythm Culture, featuring guitar, bass, keyboards, drums and trumpet, consists of four to five core musicians who represent a variety of age groups and different backgrounds. On the larger festival stages we invite one or more of our talented guest musicians to play with the group. "Keep the Wild Free," Rhythm Culture's first release features several of these musicians. Recently signed by Harvest Moon Records, a new local Indie label, Rhythm Culture has released their first CD, "Keep the Wild Free," a compilation of rhythms and different styles, each song with its own unique groove. "Reggae Karaoke Party," a children's CD, is scheduled for release in 2010 along with their Second CD, tentatively titled "Can't Break the Bond." 15 Stone in Love (Aug 29)
