Jeff Austin Band With Special Guests Satori Bob

Eugene, OR

Status: Updated

On Wednesday, February 24, the Community Center for the Performing Arts and KRVM proudly welcome the Jeff Austin Band back to the WOW Hall along with special guests Satori Bob. First there is a mountain.  Then there is no mountain.  Then there is… the Jeff Austin Band. In 1998, while working at a bar called the Verve in Nederland, Colorado, Jeff Austin met Adam Aijala and Ben Kaufmann, with whom he and Dave Johnston would form the Yonder Mountain String Band.  Austin, who picked up the mandolin only a few years before forming YMSB, fronted the band on mandolin and vocals from 1998 to 2014.  The Jeff Austin Band made their WOW Hall debut that October, and returned last April in support of The Simple Truth, the group's 2015 debut solo album and Austin's first recording for Yep Roc records.  “My ideal sound is between Phish, My Morning Jacket, and Zac Brown Band.” Austin declares. Celebrated for his fleet fingers and penchant for improvisation, Jeff Austin fronts a band consisting of Ross Martin on guitar and newcomers Ryan Cavanaugh on banjo and Max Johnson on bass.   SATORI BOB Based in Eugene, Oregon, Satori Bob is comprised of complex lyrical stories, countless live gigs, and a commitment to space and interaction within the music.  Often categorized as Americana, Satori Bob is what happens when Tom Waits meets John Prine at Leonard Cohen's house for a drink.  "We are classified by radio folks as alt-Americana, but we have a unique voice that blends energetic bluegrass styles and gypsy-ish tones and time signatures, open stark ballads and gorgeous instrumental interplay, all serving as the foundation for well-written strongly lyrical compositions. Audiences LISTEN to us, and dance to us."  Satori Bob sounds familiar, and yet has a strong voice that's all its own.   Tickets are $17 in advance, $20 at the door.  Doors open at 8:00 pm and showtime is 9:00.
