Wednesday nights from 5:30–8pm, Bridger Brewing hosts Mussels & Music! Come enjoy some live music and over a half pound of succulent P.E.I. mussels with house-made sweet Italian sausage, tomatoes, garlic, and chili flakes, topped with parsley and tomato salsa. There is no cover charge for the music. The brewery will host singer/songwriter Shaun Ray on January 18th. Originally from the South, you can hear Shaun’s southern drawl matched with the heart and soul of Motown. Influenced from various music types, it’s hard to pin him down to just one genre. Check him out—you won’t be disappointed.
Acony Belles are set for January 25th. Based out of beautiful Bozeman, the Belles are an all female, estrogen fueled musical trio. In a world of guy bands, these lovely ladies will melt your hearts and minds. The group is comprised of Besty Wise (guitar, vocals), Chelsea Hunt (fiddle, vocals), and keeping the two of them in time is Jody Engstrom (stand-up bass, vocals). Acony Belles draw inspiration from luminaries like Gillian Welch, Patty Griffin, and the Wailin’ Jennys, while keeping in touch with the simple roots of blues, bluegrass, and Americana.
Bridger’s {Pints with Purpose} helps the Brewery stand out from all the rest by supporting a local nonprofit each Monday. During these fun and charitable evenings, $1 of every pint sold between the hours of 5pm and 8pm will be donated to the featured organization. Support project HER: Help. Educate. Rise. on January 16th. HER is a growing movement to fund girls’ education and empower communities in Central Asia, providing educational opportunities, especially for girls, in poor, high-conflict areas of rural Afghanistan, Tajikistan, and Pakistan.
