HiWatt - For going on 7 years now, "HiWatt" has been a staple on the local cover band scene rockin' the Seattle/Everett/Tacoma area with its infectious mix of danceable Classic and Current Rock and Roll. Their blend of high energy, humor and musical talents is hard to find in this sea of generic, cookie cutter cover bands. They almost seem "refreshing", even considering some of the songs they do are almost 40 years old!!! Hard, over-driven guitars, thundering drums splashed with some great vocals and topped off with non-stop energy to form some great danceable music for all to enjoy. They've got great chemistry and cover songs from The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Romantics, Cheap Trick, The Clash, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Social Distortion, Lenny Kravitz, Kiss, Duran Duran, Collective Soul, U2, AC/DC, Guns and Roses, The Cars, Billy Idol, Jet, The Darkness and even some Lynyrd Skynyrd and Garth Brooks!!! All in all, it's great, high energy fun stuff to dance to, as well as listen to. For more information on HiWatt visit www.hiwattrocks.com.

Two Sheds Jackson - Returning to the Raging River, this is a band that you will not want to miss. Two Sheds Jackson is sure to have you on your feet wanting more. If you haven’t seen or heard this band, be among the first to come out and spread the word. After one night of listening to their "Jacksonized" arrangements of familiar and sometimes forgotten Rock, Blues and R&B tunes you’ll become a bonafide ShedHead! The group is comprised of seasoned musicians who have recorded for major record labels such as Mercury, Epic and Atlantic Records, and who have most recently thrown their collective talents into TSJ. A list of who they’ve played with and where they’ve been might catch your attention, but really, you just have to show up one night to know that for Two Sheds it’s their passion to play for you!
