Clean Slate:  With a hot mix of old favorites and originals, we play rock, pop, and folk in a bluesy-ish yet up tempo feel with a jazzy tilt, that we call "Electracoustic Rock'n Dead Bluesic". Not a blues band, but bluesic! We perform on the Oregon Coast and beyond... at a variety of indoor and outdoor venues, parties, concerts, and weddings. Influences include Hunter/Garcia, Dylan, Phil Oaks, and our own imaginations.

Clean Slate is: Gary Brooker on acoustic/electric guitar, harmonica, vocals and a clever foot pedal kick/shaker. Vallorie Hodges on bass, vocals, and jingles. Joined by Sandy Wieneke, a local rising star on the Afro-Peruvian box drum called the cajón. And the eminent Gus Willimen on congas and saxophone. With each musician playing some form of percussion, this is a unique and unconventional but totally addictive groove that takes music to another level.  Also, we use excellent gear for a excellent sound fidelity. Our forte is our ability to fit your venue - whether you need a background acoustic sound or a raucous party atmosphere - we will bring it!
