Wahkiakum County, Washington’s Krist Novoselic, who was
the bass guitarist in the grunge band Nirvana, will perform
with his new local band, Giants in the Trees, March 18 at Merry
Time Bar & Grill in Astoria.
Giants in the Trees
plays Merry Time
Wahkiakum
County quartet
includes Nirvana’s
Krist Novoselic
ASTORIA — Nirvana bassist
Krist Novoselic has a new
band.
Rock band Giants in the
Trees hails from Wahkiakum
County, Washington, and
the quartet finds inspiration
from the environment and
culture of the lower Colum-
bia River.
Musicians Novoselic,
Jillian Ray, Erik Friend and
Ray Prestegard have created
a sound that could best be
described as ambient coun-
try with a heavy groove.
But pigeon-holes are mere
words — let the music do
the talking.
Hear the band perform
at 10 p.m. Saturday, March
18 at the Merry Time Bar &
Grill, located at 995 Marine
Drive in downtown Astoria.
The bar is 21 and older, and
there is no cover charge.
Giants in the Trees will play
original music for an hour
or so.
The band first met for a
casual jam in the Skamoka-
wa Grange Hall last spring.
The players wasted no time
composing their first two
songs on that first day. They
were hooked to the music,
and a band was born.
Eventually, as more
material was produced, the
group started playing shows
such as the Wahkiakum
County Fair and a special
benefit raising over $2,400
for needed repairs to the
grange hall.

GEARHART — The new
Gearhart Crossing Pub will
hold a grand opening event
from noon to 9 p.m. Satur-
day, March 18.
Located at 599 Pacific
Way at the former Gearhart
Grocery location, Gearhart
Crossing Pub aims to be a
family-friendly resource
for locals and visitors and
seeks to serve the commu-
nity by providing food and
a warm, casual atmosphere
for people to gather.
The pub features locally
sourced, organic ingre-
dients and fresh takes on
comfort food, including
burgers and sandwiches,
tacos, salads, soups and
starters accompanying sev-
eral seafood and vegetarian
dishes. Several vegan and
gluten-free dishes will be
available, as will a chil-
dren’s menu.
According to the new
general manager, Victoria
Sage of Astoria, the pub
will have 16 taps, hosting
a wide selection of coast-
al and Oregon brews and
ciders, as well as a large
wine selection, small bottle
shop and growler fills.
The existing deli will
maintain its local favorites,
adding a gourmet meat and
cheese selection, and will
continue its catering busi-
ness. The pub interior was
designed by owner Terry
Lowenberg and finished
from locally reclaimed
materials. Large wooden
beams and siding were
reclaimed from the former
Astoria Builders supply.
Minors are welcome
during all open hours.
Market and deli hours are
9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday to
Thursday and 9 a.m. to 9
p.m. Friday and Saturday.

The long-running
Gearhart Grocery served
the community for as long
as residents can remember.
The grocery store closed in
December, making way for
the pub.
