Continuing its third annual run, Belgrade Community Coalition hosts the return of its popular downtown event series Belgrade Summer Nights. The outdoor live music event will be held every other Wednesday into August.
Belgrade comes alive with the sounds of live music, smell of amazing street food, and the joy of families and friends coming together under the summer sky. Catch a show from 6–8:30pm on Broadway Street.
Next up is atmospheric duo Emma & the Ledge on July 8th. The duo skillfully creates a sound that’s luminous and atmospheric, yet energizing enough to send an audience to their feet. Their music weaves together blues, alternative, rock, folk and independent styles utilizing a mix of acoustic and electric guitars.
Michael Erhart opens for alternative outfit The Scurry on July 22nd. The frontman of the Billings-based Arterial Drive, Drew McDowell has been writing songs and performing in Montana for years, also alongside his band The Scurry. Playing a poppy indie rock sound, he sings a healthy blend of amazing originals and classic covers. His eponymous debut album is out now.
Looking ahead, the remaining lineup features Petty tribute The Waiting on August 5th, and ’90s country group Neon Rainbow closing the series on August 19th alongside West Dakota Stutter. Stay tuned for details.
Whether you’re a music lover, foodie, creative soul or just in it for the vibes, this is your summer. Events are open to the public and all are encouraged to join in. Learn more about the series at www.belgreatmt.org.
