Americana from one of the Northwests finest guitarists, Lewi Longmire
Lewi Longmire has built a reputation as Portlands multi-instrumentalist go to guy. In the years since relocating to Portland from Albuquerque, New Mexico, hes been included on shows and recordings by many of the Northwests finest bands and songwriters. Hes played with national acts Michael Hurley, Victoria Williams, Dolorean, AgesandAges, Sallie Ford & the Sound Outside, Blue Giant/Viva Voce/The Robinsons, Dolorean, the Minus 5, Breathe Owl Breathe and Tara Jane ONeill as well as local luminaries Denver, The Portland Country Underground, Midlo/Pancake Breakfast, Quiet Life, Fernando, James Low, Perhapst, Electric Ill, Little Sue, Casey Neill, Michael Jodell, the Freak Mountain Ramblers, and is an anchor member of Portlands all-star tribute to the Allman Brothers, Brothers and Sister.
Recently, though, Lewi has taken all the things he learned from working with these fine performers and has been spending his time leading a roots rock/Americana band of his own, singing his own original compositions. This group owes much to the American tradition of good songs played with high energy, deep roots, and an unpretentious sense of fun. Their sound finds the connection between the basement feel of The Band, the raspy blue-eyed soul of Joe Cocker, the desert space of Giant Sand, the without a net deep space improvisations of the San Francisco ballrooms, the punk abandon of The Stooges and the quiet contemplation of Neil Young playing solo.
