Live highlights include BottleRock Festival 2025 and performances in clubs, concert halls, and amphitheatres across the US and the UK, building a reputation for energetic shows.

    Fox and Bones and more

    Silver Moon Brewing, 24 NW Greenwood Ave, Bend · verified Sep 20
    See details

    Two Portland acts share the stage in Bend for a night of folk-leaning sounds with modern sparks. Fox and Bones, a Post-Yacht Rock duo, arrive in a creative upswing shaped by a new personal chapter and the touch of internationally acclaimed songwriter Greg Holden, who produced their album “Long Time Honey” and is steering their forthcoming fifth release “Are We Still Having Fun”. Their songs thread together reflections on technology, today’s political climate, anxiety, party culture, and mental health, set to a palette that moves from vintage-tinged folk rock to bright, Bleachers-like indie pop. Their road-tested résumé includes extensive touring, bills with Rayland Baxter, The Dead South, ZZ Ward, Fantastic Cat, ALO, and Glitterfox, honors from the Tucson Folk Festival songwriting contest and the International Acoustic Music Awards, and Best Folk/Americana Album recognition from the PNW Music Awards. The Parnells bring rich family harmonies and a blend of folk, roots country, and Americana, led by husband and wife Corey and Whitney Parnell. Emerging from central Oregon’s singer-songwriter pub scene, they earned buzz with the “Own Your Soul” EP, landed on notable playlists such as Spotify’s “New Music Nashville”, and have shared stages with Jewel, Kris Kristofferson, Elle King, and The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Their critically acclaimed self-titled album, recorded live in Sisters with producer David Jacobs-Strain, highlights raw performance and sharp, heartfelt writing.
