The ever-popular rockabilly band The Dusty 45s will rock the meadow at Bloedel Reserve with their unique blend of jump blues, surf, twang country, and rock-and-roll in a concert starting at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 11.

Front man Billy Joe Huels fires up the crowd (literally) with high-energy vocals, guitar and a blazing trumpet.

Voted “Best of Seattle” three years in a row, The Dusty 45s include seasoned players Jerry Battista on lead guitar, Kelly Van Camp on drums, and Jeff Gray on upright bass.
