Cody Bartels is a country music singer/songwriter from Tacoma, WA. He’ll be making a tour stop at the Growler Garage FG where he’ll play a mix of original songs, classic country, and rock & roll covers. He toured 5 times last year, and received an award for Local Band of the Year first runner-up at the NW Country Music Awards in 2023 and 2024. We are excited to hear him croon!

Raised in the flatlands... Rambling from the North country to the South desert plains...howling at your local saloon. Richard Gans brings new life to the old folk tradition. With wailing harmonica, rhythmic guitar and mystifying lyrics... Richard's soulful voice speaks to your depths and rattles your bones.

The Willamette Skies is a trio that first came together at Linfield University, where music and friendship sparked something bigger than they expected. What started as a last minute performance for a campus event quickly turned into a crowd favorite moment and the beginning of the band.

Originally formed by Logan Connor, Lexie Thompson, and Nolan Ahmenn, the group blended standout vocals, great guitar work, and an easy onstage chemistry. Today, the band features Logan, Lexie, and Logan’s cousin Cole while Nolan studies abroad.

Their sound mixes country, folk, indie, rock, and acoustic favorites, creating a heartfelt and high energy vibe that connects with any crowd. From campus events to local venues, private parties, and community celebrations, The Willamette Skies are known for their authenticity, versatility, and ability to make every show feel personal.

At the end of the day, they simply love making music and having fun doing it. The Willamette Skies continue to grow with the support of friends, family, and community, and they are excited to bring their unique sound and spirit to the Growler Garage.
