The Bainbridge Island Chamber of Commerce will present a special New Year’s Eve concert event at the Treehouse Cafe featuring Seattle rockabilly group The Dusty 45’s.

Tickets are on sale now at nyebainbridge.com. The cost is $100 per person.
The Dusty 45s have a reputation for firing up the crowd. They deliver their rocking, high-energy music at just the right throttle to keep fans on their feet, begging for more.
They recently toured throughout the West, even opening for Grammy-winner Adele, and were recently tapped to back Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Wanda Jackson on her tour in support of her blazing, Jack White-produced new record.
Dusty 45’s founder Billy Joe Huels was raised on a farm in southern Illinois.
Growing up with a soundtrack of honky tonk and his parents’ collection of 1940s swing era LPs, he developed a broad appreciation for American roots music. He found his passion when his father bought him his first trumpet at age 10, and the performer in him came alive. Billy Joe’s stage presence now includes a rippin’ Telecaster guitar, and a trumpet which serves as an extension of himself.
By the end of the show, the trumpet ends up on fire, literally.
The group also features Jerry Battista on lead guitar, Kelly Van Camp on drums and Jeff Gray on upright bass.
