Spend happy hour in the Burn Box before heading downstairs to catch a show at the Rialto. The Downtown Bozeman venue features loads of fantastic live entertainment for music-lovers this and every month. Here’s a look at just a few of the upcoming happenings.
Veteran rock trio Eve 6 visit Bozeman on Sunday, November 17th. Fellow rockers Dead American will kick off the music at 8pm. Tickets to this all-ages show are $25. Doors at 7pm.
Eve 6 – which includes vocalist/bassist Max Collins, guitarist Jon Siebels and drummer Ben Hilzinger (replacing Tony Fagenson who left the band in 2018) – formed in Southern California in 1995 while the trio were just teenagers, then inked a deal with RCA Records before they’d finished high school. The band issued the self-titled Eve 6 in 1998, attaining platinum success with hit singles “Inside Out” and “Leech,” the former capturing the #1 spot on the Modern Rock charts and crossing over successfully to Top 40 radio. More widespread recognition came with gold-selling sophomore effort Horrorscope (2000), which spawned radio gems “Promise,” “On the Roof Again” and the ubiquitous prom and MTV anthem “Here’s to the Night.”
The band made appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the Late Show with David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Late Night with Conan O’Brien and TRL. The group then released the more experimental It’s All in Your Head featuring singles “Think Twice” and “At Least We’re Dreaming.” Speak in Code included top 20 alternative single “Victoria” and fan favorite “Curtain.” Since their debut, Eve 6 has inspired a generation of bands and been named one of the 90s’ defining rock acts.
Tickets are on sale now for the 7th Annual FUNKsgiving featuring the Sweet Groovalicious Funk Machine, set for Saturday, November 23rd at 8pm. Entry to this all-ages event is $18.50. Proceeds will be shared with Run Dog Run, this year’s non-profit partner. Doors at 7pm.
The 70s-themed dance party of the year is for everyone who likes to get down and get funky. Come shake everything you got to the spicy sounds of Seet Groovalicious Funk. As always, 70s costumes are strongly encouraged. Let’s see those bell bottoms, ‘staches, polyester and sequins!
Bozeman’s Sweet Groovalicious Funk specializes in good times, playing “retro funk and soul with some ‘funkified’ versions of modern hits thrown in – all to get you up to get down.” Featuring a core group of experienced pro players, the funk band is all about the groove and all about the fun.
With a heavy dose of James Brown and Motown, they’re not afraid to throw in a few funky twists on modern hits – and not above a few chunks of cheesy lounge disco. This is a party band, a get off your butt and dance band, a here to pay some respect to the grooves of yesterday band. When it’s time for lettin’ it all hang out, it’s time to turn on the Sweet Groovalicious Funk Machine.
