Exit 288, Plowed Under take to the streets after Three Forks rodeo
After an adventure through the Lewis & Clark Caverns or day on the river, stop by the Sacajawea Hotel for some much-needed sustenance! The historic Three Forks venue is perfect for dinner, drinks and dancing every weekend. Enjoy a fine dining experience in Pompey’s Grill followed by a night on the dance floor in the Sac Bar. Here’s a look at some of the upcoming acts.
En lieu of a Jam Session on Thursday, July 18th, Cierra & Michael return to the Sac with their lovely acoustics at 6:30pm. The dynamic father-daughter duo displays a great mix of traditional and contemporary country music from Patsy Cline to Miranda Lambert, with a sprinkling of Michael’s original ballads. Michael brings a wealth of musical experience, including a wide vocal range and guitar-playing skills. Cierra contributes her clear voice and young vibe to their musical selections. Cierra and Michael have a special musical bond that they share with their audience.
The 2019 NRA Rodeo is Friday and Saturday, July 19th–20th in Three Forks, so Sac Bar music is moving outside for a few good old fashioned street dances!
Exit 288 is first up on July 19th. The high-energy group performs everything from classic and contemporary rock, to blues, country, and all that’s in between. Exit 288 connects with the audience and creates a fun and exciting atmosphere. The band’s music is carefully selected to get people involved in the party and to keep the dance floor hopping!
Havre-based country rock party group Plowed Under returns for the Saturday night set on July 20th. This high energy band plays a fair amount of modern top 40 country – including hits by the likes of Jason Aldean, Eric Church, and Lady Antebellum. But don’t be surprised when they whip out covers of classic country artists like Waylon Jennings or Merle Haggard. Those might even be followed by some classics from ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd – or even some Highly Suspect and other modern rock. The band has shared the stage with country music greats such as Luke Bryan, Justin Moore, Joe Nichols, Jason Michael Caroll, Chuck Wicks, Ricochet, Mark Wills, and the Bellamy Brothers.
The Sacajawea’s famous Patio Jam Session & Open Mic Nights continue on regular Thursday evenings this summer, the next being July 25th at 6:30pm. Bring your music, lyrics, talent and friends to the Sacajawea on Thursday nights. Each event will be hosted by local and semi-famous singer/songwriters. You can perform original or cover music, play an impromptu jam session, or just listen and enjoy! Food and drinks will be available all evening. An additional Patio Jam & Open Mic is set for August 1st.
BE the entertainment with Sunrise Karaoke on Friday, July 26th. Bring your favorite songs and get ready to impress – or at least give it your best shot! You haven’t done karaoke until you’ve done it with Sunrise.
Sugar Daddies bring all the favorites on Saturday, July 27th. This Montana-based trio has been performing in various venues around Southwest Montana since 2012. While the gist of their material is popular rock n’ roll, country, oldies, R&B and blues, they also have an extensive arsenal of original songs, all of which are palatable, as well as an array of lesser-known but still great songs by both obscure and well-known artists/songwriters. Their main focus is variety, and they half-jokingly have a motto of “No request left behind.”
With the exception of the Thursday night patio shows, Sac live music begins at 9pm. The Sacajawea Hotel is located at 5 N Main in Three Forks. For more information about these events, visit www.sacajaweahotel.com or call (406) 285-6515. •
