		Bay Area Celtic rockers TEMPEST back in Portland!
 
When: Tuesday, Feb. 23
Where: Key Largo
       31 NW First, Portland
Time: 9:30 PM
Club Info: (503) 239-9941
 
TEMPEST, well known to Portland audiences from their many previous
appearances, is currently touring the Pacific Northwest in support of
their third release, "Serrated Edge".
 
Founder and lead singer of TEMPEST, Lief Sorbye, describes his band's
musical style as Celtic Rock; traditional folk material from the British
Isles hammered out with rock 'n roll energy.  The varied backgrounds
and diverse talents of the band's members, who all contribute to the
song writing, add to bring out an innovative, energetic, and offbeat mix.
 
Lief, who is originally from Norway, plays his own trademark double-necked
electric mandolin as well as the flute and tin whistle.  Rob Wullenjohn,
lead guitarist, is from San Francisco.  The percussionist, Adolfo Lazo,
hails from Cuba by way of Spain.  Bass guitar is provided by Ian Butler,
from San Diego.  Californian fiddle player Jon Berger will be adding a
new twist when he joins TEMPEST for this tour.
 
Based in the San Francisco Bay area, TEMPEST tours extensively throughout
the United States as well as Canada.  Performing in clubs, concerts,
and festivals, TEMPEST continues to win critical acclaim and hordes of
fans to their brand of Celtic Rock!
