With the holiday season long behind us, we’re getting back to business as the new year continues. Fortunately for hard-working locals, Downtown Bozeman’s Eagles Bar remains home to the very best talent the Valley has to offer for their regular Wednesday acoustics and weekend jamming.
Local songwriter Peter King takes the stage Feb. 8th. The Dead Yellers’ frontman gears his original lyrics around the human condition, love, war and self-control. His originals tell the story of honest, blue collar life in a small town. King’s influences range from the lonesome classic country sound to that of a DIY punk rock group.
Eclectic rockers Daniel Kosel & Madrona Road bring down the house on Feb. 10th and 11th. They’ll deliver visceral blues, sweet country and sultry rock with hot, tight grooves audiences can boogie down and shake it on the dance floor to.
Poison Lovers guitarist and vocalist Robert Lethert delivers a solo show on Feb. 15th. Expect a blend of old school country and contemporary Americana. His strong gravely voice will perfectly complement your evening at the downtown tavern.
The Disruptors deliver a pair of performances on Feb. 17th and 18th. The high energy band does their darndest to get audiences singing along with their wide selection of rock n’ roll tunes from the ‘60s to now.
Guitarist, singer and songwriter Matthew Vander Sande brings a one-man show on Feb. 22nd. Settle in for a night of smooth strings and original lyrics by this talented local.
Closing out the month are The Love Darts on Feb. 24th and 25th. The hard rock punk band got its start playing venues like the Haufbrau, having since grown into a fine-tuned project featuring some of Bozeman’s most energetic guitarists.
Take part in the Eagles’ weekly Bluegrass Jam Session on Monday nights. Take a seat and enjoy, or bring an instrument and join in! The event begins at 7pm.
Exercise your pipes with Karaoke Night sponsored by Bozeman’s Best Entertainment Group, setting up at FOE every Thursday. Sing your heart out and cheer on your friends! Sign-ups start at 9pm.
Make sure to check out Bridger Mountain Big Band on Sunday nights. The ensemble performs at 7pm. 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.
Acoustic Wednesdays start at 8pm and weekend bands are on at 9pm. Head downtown for some great live music or stop in to support your local Eagles any night of the week. •
