Though Big Sky Country is one of the nation’s premier skiing destinations, the area’s non-snow bunnies are left to wait out the spring thaw – and Bozeman’s Eagles Bar is a great place to do it! The downtown hub also features regular live music by local musicians and visiting acts. Here’s a look at what’s happening at FOE in the coming weeks.
Neil Filo Beddow takes the stage Wednesday, February 12th at 8pm. He plays original folk rock for the soul, and describes his guitar style as the “West Dakota stutter.” His lyrically scrambled iambic pentameter can be politically bent, spiritually seeking, and tongue-in-cheek humorous with just a twist of serious.
Country rockers BlueBelly Junction are back on Friday and Saturday, February 14th and 15th. The “rockabilly” group brings an arsenal of originals and personalized covers. The high-energy band tends to veer away from slow jams, other than the occasional tune. Do plan to be on your feet until last call!
There’s no better Thirsty Thursday than one with Sunrise Karaoke, setting up at FOE every week at 9pm. Sing your heart out, cheer on your friends and maybe even do a dance number between songs!
Bridger Mountain Big Band performs regularly on Sundays from 7–9:30pm. The 17-piece jazz orchestra celebrates the music of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and more, with original arrangements and music of all genres from the 1900s to today. Check them out on Facebook for performance announcements.
Eagles Bar live music begins at 9pm, unless otherwise noted. Head downtown to play a game of pool, listen to some great local bands, or stop in for a cold one any day of the week! The Eagles is located at 316 E Main. •
