Musician and ventriloquist Buddy Mac is set to play a Halloween show at Arcadian Public House.
These days, any musical style from the past can experience a sudden surge in popularity, from swing dancing to Gregorian chant to sea shanties.
If classic cowboy country music makes a comeback, Bellingham's Buddy Mac and the Ten-Gallon Troubadours will be at the forefront.
Buddy Mac is the stage name of Brady McAtee, who grew up in Montana surrounded by his great-grandfather's collection of over 10,000 old country and bluegrass LPs.
This exposure sparked a love for the music and the cowboy aesthetic, which he now shares with his band, the Ten-Gallon Troubadours.
The band was formed when McAtee teamed up with Jan Peters on the harmonica, who helped assemble a group of local musicians.
