musical styles. The original and traditional music performed by Beltaine is
inspired from Celtic, folk, rock and classical sources.

burlesque shows. Don't miss their TWO performances on the Quarterdeck
and Laissez-Faires stages!

BIDDY ON THE BENCH
Portland's own, bringing Irish rebel songs & shanties, lively session tunes, and
mournful Gaelic ballads. The Biddys are a favorite Belowdecks mainstay!

CHERVONA
The ultimate International Folk and dance party machine out of Portland,
Oregon! Combining the energy and passion of Eastern European pop and
polka, Jamaican ska, American jazz, punk, and disco, with Romani folk music,
Chervona brings to the game a fiery new and compelling sound. With
authenticity and spirit, shining with soulful brass and sonorous woodwinds,
hearts are freed by the traditional sounds of the old world wrapped in
energetic new interpretations. Chervona transforms any moment into the
year’s celebration!

COMING UP THREES
Catch CU3 for a high-energy, Celtic-inspired, pint-raising set on the
Quarterdeck Stage! Coming Up Threes is a six-piece Irish pub band that
formed in Portland, OR in early 2012. The band features Bill Tollner on guitar
and lead vocals; multi-instrumentalist Jeremy Bauer on penny whistle, banjo, bodhran, percussion, and vocals; Naoyuki Ochiai on fiddle, accordion, and
vocals; Chad Marks-Fife on Fiddle, Mandolin, and vocals; Charlie Norris on
bass; and David Fender on drums.

THE SCUPPERMONKEYS
An Irish band with a Pirate habit! The Scuppermonkeys are a Seattle-based
Irish band inspired by the tunes of Ireland... but with a pirating habit they just
can't kick! They perform traditional tunes and drinking songs, Irish rebel and
folk music, roaring sea shanties and stirring ballads, and much, much more,
all with a healthy helping of swashbuckling! Featuring strong vocals, acoustic
guitar, bodhrán, fiddle, Irish whistle, and more, The Scuppermonkeys' sound is
characterized by foot-stomping rhythm and melodies you just can't help but
sing along to!
