The Dusty 45's with special guests Alessandra Rose, Hot Spring Water (21+)

The Dusty 45s have inspired and fired up crowds for over two decades

to the delight of fans and critics alike. With their signature style and

unique sound, the band is a consistently powerful and energetic player

in the Americana field.

The band was founded in 1997 by charismatic singer/songwriter,

guitarist and trumpeter, Billy Joe Huels. Huels' songs draw inspiration

from the roots of rock, rhythm and blues, honky-tonk and jazz. The

quartet also features award winning blues guitarist, Rod Cook, Robin

Cady (upright bass) and Kohen Burrill (Drums).

The Dusty 45s have toured extensively. They backed Rock and Roll

Hall of famer, Wanda Jackson many times, including when they joined

her for Adele's "21" tour in 2011. The band has shared the stage with

Brandi Carlile, Lyle Lovett, John Prine, The Ventures, Lucinda

Williams, Leann Rhymes and Dick Dale, to name a few. In 2007, Huels

received critical acclaim for his portrayal of Buddy Holly at Seattle’s

5th Avenue Theatre. In 2019, he interviewed PBS “Country Music”

documentarian, Ken Burns, at Meany Hall in front of a sold-out

audience.

The Dusty 45s have released 7 recordings. The 2014 album, “Live and

On Fire”, showcases the best of their bold and brassy sound recorded

live at the Triple Door in Seattle, WA. Huels and the band are currently

working on a new recording at Kill Room Studios in Seattle, to be

released in 2022.
