Pinky and the Floyd will return to Bridger Brewing’s Outdoor Summer Concert Series for the 2nd Annual Back to School Block Party, Friday, August 26th at 7pm. The rockin’ show promises to be the biggest party of the summer with crazy drink and food specials, a big stage and lights, and 3+ hours of your favorite Pink Floyd music performed by one of Montana’s premier live bands!
Tickets to the show are $15 in advance at Cactus Records and Bridger Brewing, or $18 at the door. The event is ALL AGES and alcohol will be served by Sidecar Bar Service for those 21+. To top it all off, Pinky is teaming up with the beer wizards at Bridger Brewing to offer a brand new, exclusive event beer called the “LUNATIC” IPA for your tasting pleasure. Don’t miss what is surely the event of the summer! Pinky and the Floyd calls Montana home, but has frequently been called the Northwest’s Hottest Pink Floyd Tribute Band. Pinky was founded in 2007, and has seen very few personnel changes over the years. Instead, this grass-roots effort has exploded in popularity, selling out shows across the state. They put on an amazing live show that’s both note-for-note and improvisational, but it’s their superb musicianship setting them apart from other Tribute Bands. Their energy and stage presence is unprecedented!
All Pinky members are professional working musicians, assembled from genres across the board, culling their expertise to produce what has clearly proven to be a successful musical venture. All told, there are over 20 bands that the members of Pinky and the Floyd are part of, spanning genres from Americana and vintage swing, to hip-hop, jazz, country, salsa, funk, rock, blues, and on and on. They see their varied backgrounds as strength in diversity, knowing that each member “…unconsciously affects the overall sound. As players, musicians, and artists, whatever you’ve got comes with you…” And between the 10 of them, they have a lot! Pinky and the Floyd offers up a big sound and is an experience not soon forgotten. You can expect albums in their entirety, and a little something from every Floyd genre—from Syd Barrett to Division Bell, and everything in between. Tell your friends…and time your buzz. It’s a party!
