Big-Ol
Here’s a look at some of the upcoming music! Come celebrate New Year’s at the Sac with music by BlueJack, Thursday, December 31st. This eight-piece band plays rhythm and blues, rock and roll and country, and has the energy to go all night. A repertoire of highly recognizable standards are performed in a way that will stir your soul. BlueJack has delighted crowds at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, toured with B.B. King, and shared the stage with legendary bands including The Doobie Brothers, Grass Roots, Bobby Vee, and Soul Asylum to name a few. Sunrise Karaoke will encourage you to hop onstage and show everyone what you’ve got on New Year’s Day, Friday, January 1st.
Come sing your heart out and maybe even do the Cupid Shuffle between songs. Scott Nelson and Friends will take the stage Saturday, January 2nd for an evening of Blues, R&B, Reggae and extended jams. The acoustic blues guitarist’s soulful voice is reminiscent of Boz Scaggs and Lowell George with occasional flashes of Willie Nelson. Sunrise Karaoke will return on Friday, January 8th for another fun evening of soulful renditions and energetic dancing. Country rockers Big Ol’ Band will take up the mic Saturday, January 9th. The Sugar Daddies will perform Friday, January 15th. This Montana-based trio was founded in early 2012 and consists of Richard Riesser on guitar and vocals, Oscar Dominguez on keyboards, bass and vocals, and Rick Philipp on drums and percussion. Between the three, there is a vast amount of experience, professionalism and talent with its basis in Nashville, New York, Las Vegas and San Francisco. Since its inception, the band has been successfully performing in various venues throughout Southwestern Montana.
The main attribute for this success lies in the bands ability to be as versatile as it possibly can, thus enabling it to adjust their set list at any given time to adapt to any particular venue. While the gist of their material is popular rock and roll, country, oldies, R&B and blues, they also have an extensive arsenal of original songs, all of which are palatable, as well as an array of lesser-known but still great songs by both obscure and well-known artists/songwriters. Their main focus is variety, and they half-jokingly have a motto of “No request left behind.”
Quenby & The West of Wayland Band will take the stage Saturday, January 16th. Quenby & the WoW play a wide variety of Vintage Country, Contemporary (minus Pop), Outlaw, and Classic popular covers as well as originals which include songs from Merle Haggard, Buck Owens, Jerry Reed, Mary Gauthier, The Mavericks, Waylon Jennings, George Jones, Patsy Cline, Lucinda Williams and many more! All music begins at 9pm. The Sacajawea Hotel is located at 5 N. Main in Three Forks. For more information about these events, visit sacajaweahotel.com or call 406-285-6515. •
