If you’ve got plans to see the Oregon Jamboree’s April 27 Mystery Concert at LaSells Stewart Center on the Oregon State University campus … get moving.
That’s the word from Festival Director Robert Shamek as of this week.
A few dozen $20 balcony seats remained available on Monday, April 11.
Enterprising country music fans have pretty much figured out who the artists are going to be, festival Shamek said early this week.
“It’s gonna be an amazing show,” he said. “This is one of the first years that we’ve ever had four acts that are going to perform. We have a couple of really great local acts, and a guy out of Seattle.”
The locals are Trevor Tagle, who will open for the Lonesome Valley Rounders – formerly the Grange Hall Drifters (until they were forced to change their name). They will open for Dylan Jakobsen of Seattle, who will lead into the mystery artist(s).
A photo of the mystery musician(s) is posted in silhouette format on oregonjamboree.com and, Shamek noted, all devoted fans really need to do is count the number bodies in the photo and do a Google search.
“Typically,” he said, the mystery concert is acoustic. This is going to be full-on tour-bus-everything. We’re gonna rock the house, for sure. If people are going to miss it, that’s exactly what they’re going to do.”
Also coming up for the Jamboree is a Josh Gracin concert at the Harley Davidson dealer in downtown Bend on April 21, which will be a partnership effort with veterans groups in central Oregon.
Love and Theft will perform twice, on June 8 at the Ponderosa Lounge in Portland, and then on June 9 at Hardtails in Sisters.
