Jack Habegger’s Celebrity Telethon is celebrating in style with the release of their debut album “The Knockout Game” at the Clinton St. Theater on August 24th. Their unique blend of twangy cowpunk and swampy rock n’ roll has been setting stages ablaze in Portland and beyond since their debut EP on local tape label Bud Tapes. “The Knockout Game,” their first full-length release on Lung Records, is fraught with country-fried no-wave hoedowns, warm ’60s jangle, and barn-burning balladry. The band will be performing the album in its entirety and Portland luminaries Nick Normal, Laith, and Scorch will each be playing their own electrifying sets. Saddle up and be there!
