Dirty Red Barn
2024-03-15 19:00 - 23:59 | The Big Easy, 128 American Alley, Petaluma, CA, 94952, United States
From Petaluma, California, Dirty Red Barn is influenced by artists such as Simon & Garfunkel, The Allman Brothers, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and Grateful Dead. Folksy lyrics and soaring harmonies, reminiscent of the Traveling Wilburys’ sound, are in this band’s wheelhouse.
In August of 2017, DRB released its debut self-titled album. Drawing from four different songwriters, 10 original tracks tell punchy and dynamic stories. Although it’s easy to detect songs influenced by the collision of blues, folk, rock, and bluegrass, it’s tricky to pin a genre other than Americana on the group. In 2019, their second album, Almost Perfect, features 9 new original tracks.
Each member of DRB brings a distinct style to his writing and performance. Hailing from Boston, Dave Brouillette, played folk songs in area pubs and later co-fronted a popular classic rock cover band for 10 years. Ben Becker has an edgier rock background from days of garage bands in college. Malcolm Johnson relocated from Iowa to LA and played straight-up rock before moving to San Francisco and being recruited by DRB. The newest member of DRB Paul Vine comes to us from Berkley and has dishes some saucy country/folk fiddle sounds.

Mike Hellman
2024-03-22 19:30 - 23:30 | The Big Easy, 128 American Alley, Petaluma, CA, 94952, United States
Mike Hellman is a country and americana troubadour with a bent for the unconventional. Slinging songs with substance, conviction and grit, he’s on a mission to tell his truth and he insists on being heard. While firmly rooted in the rich country and blues traditions of his home state of Texas, he refuses to pander to cliché and his sound is anything but predictable. His lively performances swing from ballad to barn burner to outright rock ‘n’ roll, and his rich baritone conjures earnestness and humor while dealing head-on with all aspects of the human condition (and with a not-so-subtle nod to the underdog). An “outlaw” for outlaws, Mike’s music transcends the often narrow boundaries set by the mainstream country music establishment.

Spike Sykes and the Awesome Hotcakes
2024-04-04 19:00 - 22:00 | The Big Easy, 128 American Alley, Petaluma, CA, 94952, United States
“No one is making this kind of music anymore!”
But what, exactly, is “this kind of music?”
Like hotcakes themselves, it goes by many names. Soul. Swing. Rhythm & Blues. Jazz. Jump. It’s a sound that’s classic and simple, but when it’s done right, it hits the spot, and has you grinning from ear to ear. Spike has spent years searching for this sound.
From the Texas blues joints he cut his teeth into the funky halls of New Orleans, he was always studying the music, trying to find just the right recipe. It makes perfect sense that he found his bandmates in Sonoma County, a music scene that has fostered many eclectic artists for decades.
What he didn’t know was how hungry audiences were for “this kind of music.” You might say they’ve been eating it up like…Hotcakes!
