Russ Chapman, Edis Kittrell at Bozeman Spirits
Bozeman Spirits in historic Downtown Bozeman is a great place to stop for a quencher or two! The distillery uses only pure Rocky Mountain water to produce the most flavorful spirits. Bozeman Spirits also hosts live music by great local artists every Tuesday from 5:30–8pm in their homey tasting room. Here’s a look at the upcoming acts.
Dan Henry returns for a performance on Tuesday, October 17th. The Montana native is a singer/songwriter with a unique vocal style coupled with acoustic guitar and bluesy harmonica. He’s driven by a blues influence, but covers a wide range of music from folk and rock to reggae, and so much more.
Singer/songwriter Russ Chapman stops in with a show on Tuesday, October 24th. Chapman brings a strong sense of wit and a weak sense of sentimentality to nearly every song he writes. From numbers like “Exercise Your Demons,” where the narrator laments on aging and innocence, to “Jesus on the Beach,” an exploration of immigration, identity, and mild-mannered hypocrisy, Mr. Chapman will only sing a love song if it involves his deep affection for metaphor. As he said in his 2016 TEDx Bozeman presentation on songwriting, “I never met a metaphor I didn’t like.” Indeed. Be prepared for a memorable evening of words and music.
Get spooky! Edis Kittrell is set for Tuesday, October 31st. Edis’ unique brand of folky, bluesy tunes has moved and entertained audiences for many years. She performs at various venues and functions in solo, duo, and trio acts, as well as with her band Edis and the Incredibles. Her primary instruments are her powerful and heartfelt vocals. She also plays six and twelve-string guitar, four and five-string bass, ukulele, and percussion.
Bozeman Spirits Distillery’s tasting room offers a warm and welcoming environment. With the history kept alive in the reclaimed wood and metals throughout, you will feel the modern charm and history as you walk in. Your fresh cocktail is served upon wood from the 1930s, and the bar brings the atmosphere of the old saloon. The beautiful stills and production are seen through the back glass windows of the tasting room, and the mixologists will be happy to explain distilling techniques from the grains, mashing, blending, and bottling processes.
