The Billy Joe Show

Billy Joe Huels, leader and trumpeter of the established band, The Dusty 45s, has inspired and fired up crowds for over two decades from coast to coast. Beginning in 2016, when not on tour, Huels created a weekly gig on Wednesdays at various juke joints throughout Seattle. He joined forces with guitarist and singer, Rod Cook, upright bass player, Robin Cady and drummer Kohen Burrill, to form “The Billy Joe Show”.

In addition to over 2 decades of recording projects and national tours with the Dusty 45s, Billy Joe has also enjoyed several appearances at Seattle's renowned 5th Avenue Theatre. Critics and fans raved about his performance as Buddy Holly in the theatre’s acclaimed production of "The Buddy Holly Story”.

The Billy Joe show brings a dynamic sound and vintage style to the stage. They champion the foundations of American roots music, honky tonk, jump blues and rock and roll. The band belts out and delivers signature Dusty 45s tunes while mixing in classic and obscure covers ranging from Buddy Holly to Hank Williams and Louis Armstrong.
