Rainstick Cowbell is one of Oregon’s optimal musical acts. In a state known best for their musical independence, Rainstick Cowbell’s unique view point continues to draw interest state-wide. Rainstick’s anti-corporate persona fits well into Oregon’s angst for over-processed canned pop-music. As a proud staple in Portland’s artistic community, Rainstick Cowbell’s music is valued amongst locals with reputations to be harsher than most professional critics.
Rainstick Cowbell is more than just a musical act. As a performer he offers a kinship among local artists. Attending a Rainstick Cowbell show offers all the essential aspects of a strong societal message, maintains the dignity of self-governing & unsigned artists, and brings the locals together by creating a sense of unfashionable enthusiasm.
Oregon has made a unique contribution to American independent music, with a strong indie music scene developing in Portland. The city's reputation as a hipster mecca has paralleled the rise of local indie musicians such as The Decemberists, The Gossip, The Dandy Warhols, M. Ward, and the late Elliott Smith. Floater is Portland's leading example of an indie band.
Other prominent musicians have relocated to Portland, including Modest Mouse (of Seattle), Sleater-Kinney (of Olympia, Washington), The Shins (of Albuquerque, New Mexico), Spoon (of Austin, Texas), and former Pavement leader Stephen Malkmus (of Stockton, California).
In the meantime, Fireants is available in Target stores across The United States. Thus, dispelling the myth that avant-garde music can’t be brought to the masses. Rainstick Cowbell has not only brought his music to the masses, but in return also brought his alternative viewpoint on Oregon’s music scene to Europe.
Rainstick Cowbell is affiliated with North Pole Records. He is also professionally represented to the media by TV PR.
