THE BEAT FARMERS+ GILL BROTHERS BAND

HopMonk Sebastopol - The Abbey

MOSTLY STANDING | 21+ ONLY

ABOUT: 

From 1983 to 1995, the original Beat Farmers were one of the greatest bands ever!

Now back and better than ever!

The very finest in: Wreckless Western, Bug-eyed Ballads, Heat-butting Rockabilly, Suicidal Blues, and Hayseed Boogie-Woogie.

Country Dick Montana, Jerry Raney, Joey Harris, and Rolle Love were this traveling musical pleasure experience that will never be duplicated ever again. If you ever saw the BFers, you know what I mean. They played a powerful combination of music and mayhem and added a large dose of stage presence to provide a live show that was truly one of a kind.

THE BEAT FARMERS
The Beat Farmers are an American rock & roll band formed in San Diego, California in 1983. They went on to release seven albums before disbanding in 1995, following the untimely death of drummer Country Dick Montana, who died on stage in British Columbia, Canada during a Beat Farmers show.

The band was a big part of the 1980s Roots Rock/Americana movement that included Los Lobos, The Blasters, Lone Justice, Rank & File, Jason & The Scorchers and The Long Ryders, just to name a few.  They are continuously mentioned as a major influence on many of the acts on the current American scene.

The original lineup of The Beat Farmers consisted of Jerry Raney, Buddy Blue, Rolle Love and Country Dick Montana.  Blue left the band after two albums and was replaced by Joey Harris, who went on to record the next five albums with the band, including what many consider their crowning achievement, The Pursuit Of Happiness.

GILL BROTHERS BAND
Located in rural Northern California, Gill Brothers Band have carried the craft of guitar and song together for over a decade. Their sophomore album “The Hollow Mountain” takes listeners on a mystical journey through space and time, invoking images of smoky dive bars, oak chaparral landscapes, and the great beyond. Twangy duel guitars and thoughtful storytelling gives fans a unique portrait of the Mayacamas Mountains while also driving home universal themes of struggle, triumph, and justice.  Combining thoughtful arrangements with reckless abandon, Gill Brothers Band strike at the hard-rocking side of alternative country.
