X-Angels/Cowboy Angels brief history:
Portland's legendary band 'Cowboy Angels' was co-founded in 1974 by singer- songwriters, Tom McGriff and John Bunzow. Playing all the popular clubs of the day, the Angels built a substantial following that continued to grow all through the seventies. The band took a hiatus in the 1980's as McGriff pursued musical opportunities in Los Angeles and Bunzow in Nashville. The band reformed when McGriff returned to Portland in the early 1990s and became known as 'X-Angels', focusing on a harder edged sound and original songs, the band quickly recovered their popularity. Playing live clubs and releasing several albums over the next few years they received high critical acclaim as well as airplay on Portland's 'KINK' radio. Though the band's alignment changed a bit over time, a typical line up would include (in addition to McGriff), 2 time Oregon Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Rich Gooch on bass, highly touted Tom Royer on drums, as well as noted guitarists Steve James Wright, Mark Spangler and Bunzow. Many more of the most talented musicians of the Northwest have also been involved over the years, some of whom will be on hand for this year's 2026 reunion.
Be sure not to miss this as the band reunites to perform at the centrally located HōKū Events on Madison, 1125 SE Madison. Friday June 19 & Saturday June 20th.
This venue has great sightlines and a dance floor! Meals can be prepurchased separately.
