Red Tractor acts: Groove-based Howard Beall, ethereal folk of Raven Roshi & more

At Red Tractor – The Dirt Farmers bring a Sunday show on January 27th at 6pm
Along with its handcrafted pies and wide selection of regional brews, Red Tractor Pizza plays host to independent musicians and other events throughout the week. Here’s a look at what’s coming up.
Music Monday features Raven Roshi on January 21st beginning at 6:30pm. He creates an original, ethereal indie folk sound that teases transportation into the mystic. Cerebral with a hint of counter-culture blues, deeply emotive, hypnotic at times, and always laying down a chill vibe. Born from poetry of the earth. Beatniks, philosophers, lost lovers and mischievous mountain sages dance in and out of lyrics. Original songs are written and performed by Bozeman-based Charles Wolf Drimal on Spanish guitar, harmonica, and foot tambourine. He’s accompanied by Chris Jenkins on lead guitar and occasionally other supreme musicians.
Weston Lewis performs on Tuesday, January 22nd. Lewis plays with a number of local bands, solo performances, and as a sit-in lead guitarist for artists including The Andrew Hand Band, John Sherrill, The Electric Sunday, Lang Termes, Mathias, and MOTH. His solo sets are comprised mostly of acoustic rock covers and some of his original songs. In band settings, he likes to play funk, jazz, country and more.
The Dirt Farmers bring a Sunday show on January 27th at 6pm. They’re a foot-stomping string band who have dubbed their musical style “paisley grass.” They’ve gained a following for their fun-loving mix of old school country, bluegrass, blues and rock – with the occasional slip into hip-hop. The band members, as unique as their song list, serve it all up with a smile on mandolin, banjo, guitar, fiddle and bass with vocal harmonies. The Dirt Farmers invite you to be “Having a Good Time” and experience the flavor and fun of Montana life.
Music Monday sees the talents of Campwood on January 28th at 6:30pm. Head down for the all you can eat pizza buffet, check out the acoustics and show them some love!
PermaFunk is back on Saturday, February 2nd at 7pm. The Bozeman-based group makes music to keep bodies moving and souls grooving! Expect plenty of funky, soulful, psychedelic, and Latin-infused grooves. The band is inspired by the creativity and passion of the 1970s and everyone who participates in the PermaFunk experiment.
