Good-time music on tap at The Belfry
The Good Time Travel-
ers will perform their original
music at The Belfry Thursday,
April 13 with local opening act
Brad Tisdel and Brent Alan.
The duo of Pete Kart-
sounes and Michael Kirk-
patrick come together as The
Good Time Travelers, with a
high voice, smoky and soul-
ful; paired with a low voice,
rich with bravado. United
by a passion for performing,
this songwriting and pickin’
duo presents original songs
about “the journey.” Michael
hails from Colorado and Pete
resides in Central Oregon.
These talented musicians per-
form with many acts, but the
duo is where they both shine.
It’s a simple endeavor:
a guitar, a mandolin and
two microphones — travel-
ing light, this band fills up
your heart, but barely fills
a Subaru. Both men have
been leading bands around
the West for some time and
found each other at the Tel-
luride Bluegrass Festival in
Colorado. At their first camp-
ground session, it became
clear to all who witnessed
the magic of these two trou-
badours that this was more
than just another Town Park
jam. In fact, Michael won the
prestigious Telluride Trou-
badour Competition in 2014
and Pete had taken an honor-
able first-runner-up in 2011
and 2013. Pete and Michael
began co-writing in the sum-
mer of 2014, focusing on
the alchemy of their unique
voices and instrumental styles.

The Good Time Travelers are traveling to Sisters on Thtrsday.
The “highly acclaimed” debut
album is now out and avail-
able online and at the shows.
“Pete and Michael came
to the Sisters Folk Festival
and the songwriting academy
in 2016 and everyone shared
in the joy of their music.
They write from an intimate,
spiritual place, and both are
excellent musicians. The duo
seems to bring out the best in
their talents, and they really
wanted to play Sisters again,”
says Brad Tisdel.
The duo of Brad Tisdel
and Brent Alan will open the
show. Local musicians for
the past 20 years, they share a
common love for Americana/
bluegrass music and mellow
tunes that are heartfelt and
reach deep into human emo-
tion and experience. Tisdel
was fortunate to have Brent
add vocal harmonies and
multi-instrumental talents on
his 2007 release “On Your
Way.” Brent Alan has per-
formed for over three decades
in various bands, including
Brent Alan and his Funky
Friends, Dennis McGregor
and the Spoilers, and Low
Hanging Fruit with Tisdel.
