The Ragshakers

From Portland, OR, The Ragshakers are an energetic and eclectic band that blends punk with traditional folk music, country & western, jazz, bluegrass, noir, and blues. They strive to make thought provoking music that people can dance to, with lyrics that embrace the necessary darkness while also releasing the darkness that doesnt need to be carried. The Ragshakers speak out on the present day injustice, violence, and hate that is faced by marginalized people. "We sing for the uprising of those who are oppressed and marginalized - for our communities." Queer Americana from the Pacific Northwest
