Best Bets for May 26–28 | The Bainbridge Blab

This weekend we recommend you utilize the good weather — which we hear is expected to get into the high 70s — to catch some rays (sun, not manta), relax and enjoy yourself… and for the love of all that is good and right in this world, stay away from the ferries this weekend.

However, if you find yourself getting a little stir-crazy with all the chillaxing, take a jaunt on down to the Treehouse Café on Saturday evening to check out Cedar Teeth.

For those old enough, upon first hearing Cedar Teeth it is difficult not to hear Levon Helm, Rick Danko and the likes of The Band hollering from the grave. Indeed, imagery reflecting organic flesh and bone mingling with gnarled old growth roots music is what this band is all about.

Cedar Teeth hails from the Cascade foothills of Colton, Oregon. For many years they’ve made music in a shed at the edge of an ancient forest.

Having performed throughout the Northwest and beyond, including 2015 festival sets at the Sundance Film Festival, Oregon Country Fair, Cascadia Rainingman and Summer Meltdown, Cedar Teeth will return to the Treehouse Café at 8 p.m. Saturday. Crafting a sound that blends rough and rustic folk rock with lyrical American roots, the music of Cedar Teeth sounds familiar no matter what generation, or what frontier, you hail from.

The 21-and-older show is free to attend.

Then get your rear-end back outside and firmly plant it in a lawn chair, crack open a tasty beverage of your choosing and enjoy the weather some more, ride out your weekend until you absolutely have to get back into work.
