Hillfolk Noir Tickets

Hillfolk Noir delivers a distinctive blend known as Junkerdash—a genre-melding mix of folk, bluegrass, string-band blues, and punk. With core members Travis Ward on guitar and vocals, Alison Ward on musical saw, washboard, and harmonies, and Mike Waite on double bass, the group crafts high-energy performances that traverse acoustic intensity and lyrical storytelling. Based in the Pacific Northwest and beyond, they’ve built a reputation for raw, heartfelt shows that connect with both traditional folk fans and adventurous listeners.

From self-released beginnings to a celebrated catalog, Hillfolk Noir continues to push sonic boundaries while staying true to rootsy vibes and infectious rhythm.
