Cole & The Thornes, Ocelot Wizard at Bridger Brewing
Bridger Brewing is your source for the very best of Montana craft beers, daily gourmet food specials, and artisan pizza. The family-friendly brewer also hosts Music & Mussels every Wednesday and {Pints with Purpose} every Monday. Here’s a look at some of the upcoming events.
Wednesday nights from 5:30–8pm, Bridger Brewing hosts Music & Mussels! 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.
Missoula-based Ocelot Wizard will play for brewery patrons on July 5th. Comprised of singer/songwriters Willard Peterson and Jesse Williams, the duo came together in January to create honest, love music for the soul. Come check these guys out!
Cole & The Thornes are set for July 12th. The ukulele/guitar player’s music provides a happy, laid back environment with a hint of reggae and vocals that are soulful and bluesy.
Coming next month — Blind Pilot and Gregory Alan Isakov will perform during another Bridger Brewing outdoor concert event on Wednesday, August 9th at 5pm. Tickets are $38 and on sale now at www.cactusrecords.net. This is an all ages show.
Portland-based Blind Pilot strikes a balance between mellow folk and West Coast indie pop. Lead by front man Israel Nebeker, the six-piece released their latest, And Then Like Lions, in the summer of 2016.
Gregory Alan Isakov creates songs that hone a masterful quality, telling stories of miles and landscapes and the search for a sense of place. His song-craft lends to deep lyrical masterpieces with hints of his influences, Leonard Cohen and Bruce Springsteen. Isakov recently released an album of his songs played in collaboration with the Colorado Symphony.
Bridger Brewing not only takes pride in its stellar menu items, but also in the community it serves. The brewery hosts {Pints with Purpose} every Monday evening from 5–8pm where $1 of every pint sold will be donated to a featured local nonprofit. In 2016, Bridger raised $18,247(!) for organizations doing great work right here in Southwest Montana. Here’s a look at some of the nonprofits being featured in the upcoming weeks. Come enjoy a house-made brew and be charitable in the process!
