Novoselic: Musician is a familiar visitor to Astoria
Continued from Page 1A
through all the songs they’ve
never heard before. When I go
see a band, I expect to see songs
that I like of theirs. With this
band, we’re asking a lot more.
Here’s this whole-new band, so
I appreciate people coming out
and sticking around.”
Novoselic is a familiar visi-
tor to Astoria, appearing occa-
sionally on Coast Commu-
nity Radio as DJ-Know. Giants
in the Trees performed at the
Merry Time Bar & Grill in
downtown Astoria earlier this
year.
Next month, the band will
perform at Fort George Brew-
ery’s annual Block Party, fol-
lowing an afternoon of live
music in the brewery’s court-
yard after the Astoria Regatta
Grand Land Parade that after-
noon Aug. 12. The band is
scheduled to take the stage at
8 p.m.
Jam session
Novoselic said he “fell in
with” these musicians in Wah-
kiakum County, all fellow
Skamokawa grange members,
and what began as a jam ses-
sion last spring turned into
something more.
“We had a good connec-
tion right off the bat. We didn’t
waste any time,” he said. “We
started to put songs together.
We had musical ideas. It just
felt right.”
The band, which features
Novoselic on bass and accor-
dion, vocalist Jillian Raye,
drummer Erik Friend and Ray
Prestegard on guitar and har-
monica, first performed last
summer in a benefit show for
Skamokawa Grange. Since
then, they’ve gigged here and
there, playing clubs in Portland,
Olympia and Eugene, and have
been at work on an album with
Jack Endino. (Novoselic calls
the Seattle producer “the god-
father of grunge” for his work
with Mudhoney, Soundgarden
and Nirvana.) A single, “Sas-
quatch,” should be out soon,
with the self-released album to
follow later this summer.
Judging from the music
that’s available — mainly clips
on YouTube, the band’s Face-
book page and tweeted out
by fans — Giants in the Trees
plays Northwest indie pop rock
that’s flavored with generous
doses of roots and Americana
music.
While the band’s descrip-

“It always seems like I fall
back into it,” Novoselic said,
calling music a habit. “I still
play finger-style guitar and
accordion, and I play bass
when I can.”
He stays busy in other ways.
He is master of the Grays River
Grange. He’s chairman of the
board of Fair Vote, a national
election reform group. He and
his wife grow food on their
place near Deep River.
In 2010, he enrolled in an
online program through Wash-
ington State University. “I did
it on a whim,” he said. “My
nephew was going off to enroll
in community college and I
jumped in the car with him. It
was crazy. … My only regret
was that I didn’t do it sooner.”
Six years later, he gradu-
ated with a bachelor’s degree in
social sciences. As he worked
through his classes, he was
playing music: being inducted
into the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame in 2014, touring with
Dave Grohl’s Sound City proj-
ect, earning a Grammy with
Paul McCartney, Grohl and Pat
Smear for their 2014 rock song
“Cut Me Some Slack.” When
he needed a break from loga-
rithms, he’d pick up a guitar
or his accordion and let music
work the other parts of his
brain.
After all this time, music
remains something that he
enjoys. And while the industry
has changed dramatically since
Nirvana, he’s happy to keep
at it, playing with friends and
meeting fans new and old.
“We can survive if we find
our niche,” he said, “and a lot
of that is keeping it local.”

of different sounds. Raye and
Friend once played electronica
in a band called Laser Trash.
Prestegard, Novoselic said, is a
skilled guitarist who plays box
and slide guitar. And “I do my
thing on bass,” he said. “And
this mix just comes together …
you get this roots sound.”
tion of itself on Facebook
seems whimsical (“The band
is not offended by terms like
schmaltz. On the other hand,
there are heavy groove num-
bers, screaming slide guitar
and accordion.”), Novoselic
said they’re serious when they
say they’re “inspired by the
environment and culture of the
lower Columbia River.”
“That’s what we’re trying to
do is present that image to peo-
ple, so people can get an idea
of where we’re from and what
we’re about,” he said. “It’s
roots and Americana, through a
modern lens.”
They bring together a host
ple who work in fishing, timber
and agriculture. Only Garfield
County in Eastern Washington
has fewer people.
“There are a lot of trees.
There’s a lot of clearcuts, too,”
Novoselic said. “That’s just
what it is. That’s our life and
our culture. We know log-
gers. We know farmers. We’re
grangers.”
Performing live, whether
it’s at the grange hall or in a
local bar, is something that
thrills Novoselic and his
colleagues.
“We get great energy off
the crowd. That’s the magic of
rock and roll. It’s a reciprocal
relationship,” he said. “When
the crowd is hot, and the band
is hot, then you make this
moment. It’s an experience.”
Novoselic, of course,
knows all about that rock ’n’
roll magic. As the founding
bass player for Nirvana, widely
regarded as one of the best rock
bands in history, Novoselic
saw the world from the stages
of tiny bars and huge stadiums
with bandmates Kurt Cobain
and Dave Grohl. They sold
more than 75 million albums
and scored hit after hit with
“Smells Like Teen Spirit,”
“Come As You Are,” “In
Bloom,” and “Heart Shaped
Box,” among many others. At
one point, the band’s break-
through album, 1991’s “Nev-
ermind,” was selling 400,000
copies a week.
Since Cobain’s 1994 sui-
cide brought an end to Nir-
vana, Novoselic has played
music. He released albums
with the bands Eyes Adrift
(2002) and Sweet 75 (1997).
His last record was released in
2008 with the punk band Flip-
per. He guested on Foo Fight-
ers’ “Wasting Light” LP in
2011, and he’s been known to
