Based out of Portland, Oregon, The Twangshifters have quickly emerged as one of the up and coming bands in the Northwest. Long an underground favorite in Portland, the self-described Rock ‘N’ Roll/ Rock-a-Billy/Roots/ Blues band put their own twist on the style.

The band recently completed recording their 2nd effort, an EP titled “Twang Gang” expected to be released by the end of 2012.

The band was also featured Live at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall for the “Music on Main Street concert series on Portland News Channel 8.
