Biography Take one part Bee-Gees, one part Hank Williams and you get the outrageously fun troupe, THE DISCO COWBOYS! The Northwests most fun outlaw country disco band plays the disco era hits in cowboys style! Haven’t heard of them yet? Well, then your in for a real treat. Throw on your favorite cowboy hat, slide into an old pair of boots, grab a dancing partner and giddyap to Folklife and see THE DISCO COWBOYS! ---- We have a lively stage presence and always put on a good show. We gig around the northwest and would love the opportunity to play Folklife. If we were accepted I think that the Fountain Stage (Nortwest of the fountain) would be a reasonable stage for us. Bars love us and that stage is close to a beer garden. OK, you caught me. We like beer gardens too...
