Description
Billy and the Box Kid emerged as a duo in the Bend open mic scene when singer-songwriter Anderson Koenig (also known as Billy) and Scottie McClelland (the Box Kid) collided, both searching for an outlet for their musical talent. They combined Koenig's fast-paced acoustic country Rock'n Roll with McClelland's high-energy and distinctive style of playing the Cajon aka "box drum". The band has since expanded into a five-piece group with the addition of Tommy Lutz on mandolin, Ryan Harris on lead blues guitar, and Ben Woessner on bass, helping to create a unique sound for the group. Their music is influenced by 1950s Rockn' Roll, country, and bluegrass, with a hint of Southern blues. Their mission is to get folks out on the dance floor and stomping their feet. Based in Bend, OR ______________________________________   Pacific Northwest based, Singer/Songwriter Kaleb Baize moseys about the ever expanding new age, Alt-Country, Folk-grass scene. With roots stretching from the blue Kentucky hills to the golden coast of California, this lonesome songster is making waves while weaving a network of top-tier artists. Drawing inspiration from the likes of The Stanley Brothers, Bill Monroe, James Taylor and George Jones; Kaleb is a craftsman, blending traditional standards with downright sorrowful original tunes. A true wordsmith and a dedicated, lifelong student to the art of music, preaching positivity and progression.
