A Rare Night Home: Dave Fleschner & Friends
Two Sets at Hōkū Events
Thursday, August 13th · 7:00 PM · 1125 SE Madison St, Portland, OR

Featuring Dan Gildea, Bill Athens and Edwin Coleman III

Dave Fleschner is currently on tour with blues legend Tommy Castro and the Painkillers, which makes Portland shows a rare occasion these days. On August 13th, he’s home for one night only at Hōkū Events — two sets of American roots music with an all-star lineup.

On guitar is Dave’s good friend and longtime collaborator Dan Gildea — a Portland jazz mainstay who has played with Ron Carter, Leroy Vinnegar, and Shelly Rudolph. Dan has played on a number of Dave’s records, including The Dave Fleschner Trio – Deep Cuts, At Home, and The Blues Cabaret. Two guitar masters whose very different styles lock in beautifully together.

Joining on Bass this time around is Bill Athens. Long time performing and recording collaborator with Dave, you have also heard him playing either upright or electric with Sleater-Kinney, 3 Leg Torso, Trio Subtonic, the Rose City Chamber Orchestra, the Tacoma Symphony, Seamus Blake, Dave Pietro, Bel Canto Northwest, Dan Balmer, Mel Brown, George Colligan, Nancy King, Tom Grant and many more.

Anchoring the whole thing is Edwin Coleman III, this year’s CBA Muddy Award winner for Drummer and a longtime cornerstone of Soul Vaccination. He’s the drummer Portland’s best bandleaders call first — equally at home in a Hammond jazz trio, a blues revue, or a soul band.

The setlist will move through selections from the recent vinyl release The Dave Fleschner Trio – Deep Cuts, along with material from The Blues Cabaret and Live From The Vault, plus a handful of vintage blues classics and some new tunes from Alan Hager and Dave.

Two sets. Starting at 7:00 PM. Hōkū Events on Madison · hoku-events.com
