The glorious shades of autumn are returning to Southwest Montana, best enjoyed with a nice drive to take in the view. Take the scenic route to this year’s winner for ‘Best Overnight Getaway.’ Plan a weekend trip to Chico Hot Springs for a chance to soak the joints, feast on some delicious grub and enjoy live music in the Saloon. Here’s what’s coming up this month.
Enjoy the talents of El Wencho on October 11th and 12th. The powerhouse duo delivers big sound that relates the Montana lifestyle through immersive lyrics, catchy melodies and driving rhythms. Their authentic music is an eclectic fusion of genres that draws on sonic elements from red dirt rock, blues, country, Americana and polyrhythmic Latin percussion. Live shows are an experiential combination of their dynamic Montana sound, engaging storytelling and comedic flair.
Check out Old Man Ben & the Grown Ass Men with back-to-back performances on Oct. 18th and 19th. Playing a rolling mix of old time country, rubber-necking bluegrass covers and giggle-worthy originals, the band keeps audiences grooving ’til way past their bedtime.
BrickHouse Band is next up with their seasoned talents on Oct. 25th and 26th. The Billings-based performers will be sure to pack the dance floor with rockin’ crowd favorites and other jams. Grab a drink from the bar and boogie down!
BlackWater Band kick off a new month on Nov. 1st and 2nd, with a special belated Halloween party on Friday. The rock n’ roll variety group will have you off your feet and on the dance floor in no time, so take a swig of your preferred flavor and get that liquid motivation flowing. Grab a drink from the bar, boogie down and show off your silly or scary costumes!
Live Saloon music begins at 9pm, unless otherwise noted. Chico Hot Springs is located in Pray, 20 miles south of Livingston. For more information, visit www.chicohotsprings.com. •
