So who are these freaks, you ask?

Kickstar is a power rock trio based out of the central Willamette Valley of Oregon.

 

Their original music is of the rock and hard rock variety blending seamlessly into their extensive cover playlist ranging from the ‘60s classic era through the modern rock of today. Their sound is massive, driving and crisp, topped with sweet female vocal harmony. 

The band also enjoys performing acoustic works with 6 and 12 string guitars.

Fronting the band on lead vocals, bass and acoustic guitar is Dana Hughes. She has a dynamic vocal range and stage presence while holding down the groove on bass or gently strumming her acoustic guitar. Her voice may give you chills with angelic melodies or growling out great covers of Pat Benetar or Joan Jett. 

Oh, and if you touch her guitar without permission, she’ll kick you in the nuts.

On electric and acoustic guitars is Jimi Hughes. This tech wiz blends his IT skills with his guitar prowess to bring a great rock show to all venues. 

On stage, Jimi is fun to watch, and usually has a cadre of other musicians staring down his fingers on the fretboard while smoke puffs out of them. 

But be careful, he is known to levitate those invading his personal stage space right across the dance floor with a mere flick of his hand.

Charlie Laur on drums completes this tempest of textures. His drumming style is punchy and solid with a certain salty flare. Risen from the depths in a crab pot, this lucky bycatch starfish is set to shine bright with Kickstar.

Kickstar is booking now for all of your entertainment needs from festivals, bar gigs, private parties and executive events, indoors or out.
