Groovin' on the waterfront.

​Come on down and dance with the robot guy while the kids run through the fountains. 

Summer at it's finest. Be there!

Spring is in the air.

​Portland is starting to bloom and the weather is turning for the better. That means that it's once again time to make some music at Portland Saturday Market!

​Come out and hang on Sunday, April 23, 2017. We'll be playing at Waterfront Park from 11:30am - 1:30pm, so a great opportunity to throw the kids in the stroller or bike down to have lunch at the market. Good times and great tunes.

​As always, Mac Brown (guitar), Spencer Finnan (keys), Drew Nelson (bass) and Austin Stewart (drums) will crank out the jams and help get your day off to a good start.

We had a wonderful time performing in 2016!

With many great shows at the Portland Saturday Market and the McMenamins White Eagle, we want to thank everyone for supporting live music. As we look forward to 2017 and releasing our next album in the months ahead, here is video of a new tune we have been kicking around, Frutiy Pebbles.

Recorded live on November 27, 2016 at McMenamins White Eagle, the tun features Mac Brown (guitar), Spencer Finnan (keys), Drew Nelson (bass) and Austin Stewart (drums).

The Austin Stewart Quartet will be at McMenamins White Eagle on Thanksgiving weekend.

We're performing on Sunday evening, November 27, 2016 at 7:00pm. Come out and shake a tail feather while working off all that Turkey Day stuffing.

​We'll be feeling thankful, feasting on original funk, jazz and soul music. Instrumental grooves by finger lickin' good Mac Brown on guitar, special sauce Spencer Finnan on keyboards, damn that's some fine gravy Drew Nelson on the bass, and sweet beets Austin Stewart on the drums.

P.S. it's free!!!!!!!

We are back at Portland Saturday Market, this time on Sunday, September 25, 2016 from 2-3:30pm. Yeah that's right, Saturday Market on Sunday! The show is free and all ages.

​There is nothing quite like it. The market has a life of its own. Artists, bucket drummers, dudes roller skating, and kids way hipper than you. And its all good! We'll break out the grooves for the good people of Portland at Waterfront Park. You can find us on the main stage just off Nato Parkway near the Burnside Bridge.

​Mac Brown (guitar), Spencer Finnan (keys), Drew Nelson (bass), and Austin Stewart (drums), will get those marketers shaking it out. You'll know its going down when the robot guy starts breaking a sweat and comes over to show off his moves. Who needs artificial intelligence when you've already got the real thing? Not the robot guy.

​Anyways, come on out and jam with us!

We are thrilled to be back at the White Eagle!

​Come on out an hang on Russell St with us on Sunday, August 7, 2016. We'll be playing some jams for happy hour from 4-6pm at the good old McMenamins White Eagle. Such a lovely atmosphere, a beautiful space and a wonderful bar staff. This gang knows how to get you on your good foot.

​You can also hear the grooves from the patio, which will be bumpin'. Old folks and young folks, new friends and old jokes. All are welcome to join us for a wonderful afternoon of good tunes and good people.

​As always, Mac Brown (guitar), Spencer Finnan (keys), Drew Nelson (bass) and (Austin Stewart (drums) will drop the beat and bring the heat.

Nothing says summer like a trip to Portland Saturday Market.

​The hustle and bustle of vendors setting up in the morning. Kids splashing around in the fountains. Street performers creeping you out. The dude who can make one heck of a mask out of spoons and a spaghetti strainer. Bucket drummers on the corner, drumming on buckets.

You know, the big one downtown. It is the largest continuously running open-air arts and crafts market in the country. Portland is serious about the art of crafts, people!

​Come on out on Saturday, July 30, 2016, at 2:00pm and see the Austin Stewart Quartet on the main stage. We'll be at Waterfront Park and Ankeny Plaza, welcoming summer with one hot jam after another. Mac Brown (guitar), Spencer Finnan (keyboards), Drew Nelson (bass) and Austin Stewart (drums), will help keep your lazy afternoon rolling along with good tunes and great people watching.

​Original grooves to make your booty move. Come out and hang!

​Peace, love and music!
