Acousta Noir, AKA Joshua Esterline, will perform Friday, April 7 at Hamley Saloon in Pendleton.

PENDLETON — Acousta Noir, AKA Joshua Esterline, returns to Pendleton with his brand of folk, Americana and stomp rock music.

Coming from a background shaped by punk, rock and roll, roots, and various traditional folk styles, Acousta Noir brings a unique, yet oddly familiar, set of original songs to the table, along with his renditions of select and obscure covers. He will perform Friday, April 7 from 9 p.m. to midnight at Hamley Saloon, 8 S.E. Court Ave., Pendleton. There is no cover charge.

Hailing from Douglas County, Esterline first began playing music in 1994, and has been a part of a varied array of musical projects. These include punk bands (as a singer, guitarist and drummer), singing for a heavy metal band and a couple projects playing the upright bass.
