Album Notes

Get ready for a good time. It's the Big Island Shindig.
Dance. Smile. Enjoy.

Based in Portland, Oregon, the Shindig combine the energies of their instruments causing a cosmic combustion of honey-sweet jam! Consisting of Noah Bell on guitar/vocals, Nathan Day on guitar/vocals, Justin Fulbright on drums, Jim Montgomery on piano/organ, and Tyler Stauss on bass, the Shindig pack a powerful punch from their multi-style arsenal of tunes. From blues to bluegrass, rock to funk, latin and jazz, the Big Island will grab a style, carve and chisel it, reshaping it into their own. Musically conscious and always listening, the B.I.S. create a live energy on stage that captures a room, leading listeners down a spiraling musical joyride!

Now they have a studio album that captures that live excitement. Five musicians coming together as one, sharing their musical vision with the world. This is music the way it is supposed to be: positive, uplifting, inspiring.

The songs on this album are well-composed and performed with a passion for expression. From the whimsical "Water Song" to the instrumental drama "The Pot Thickens" to the raucous "The Way the Game is Played" to the crowd pleasing "Living", you will love every note.

See you on the dance floor.
