Jesco Payne & the Painkillers with Rattlesnake Mama
-
Raised in the mountains of Southeast Kentucky, Jesco Payne grew up with a soundtrack of punk rock, outlaw country, pentecostal hymns, and honky tonk. Now settled in the mighty Pacific Northwest, Jesco takes influence from his Appalachian roots to sing songs that long for home, mourn lost love and glamorize the occasional rough and rowdy time. Jesco Payne & The Painkillers deliver cathartic country music that pays homage to the pioneers of honky tonk and outlaw country.

RATTLE SNAKE MAMA. A rowdy, lowdown, revved up
tribute to original urban Chicago blues. The band takes
the essence, tonality and rawness of yesteryear roots
music and make it their own.
Fans of Howlin’ Wolf, The Red Devils, Muddy Waters, Slim
Harpo, Little Walter, Hound Dog Taylor, Junior Wells and
50’s era dirty boogie blues. The band injects each cut
with power and ramped up energy. This band LOVES the
blues, and their sets infect people to dance, stomp and let
loose.
The band consists of some of Portlands finest musical sons:
Andy Moore- Harmonica & Vocals (Justin Townes Earle)
Nathan Trueb- Guitar (Tango Alfa Tango)
Alex Callenberger- Guitar (Clawfoot Slumber)
Keith McCarthy- Bass (Drunken Prayer)
José Medeles (The Breeders/Revival Drum Shop)
