Flavorful blend of genre highlights Hot Springs’ upcoming slate
Accessibility of live music in smaller communities like ours is a collaborative effort between the artists who share their talents and the venues that give them the space to do it. One of our local musicians’ greatest allies, Bozeman Hot Springs, will open its stage for groups and individuals all month long. The venue features an outdoor stage with weekly live music showcasing regional and traveling acts every Thursday and Sunday at 7pm.
Space out to Bozeman’s favorite Grateful Dead tribute on October 3rd. Dead Sky features members of local favorites Pinky & the Floyd, MOTH, Kelly Nicholson Band and the Hooligans. The six-piece is an amazing celebration of one of rock’s most legendary groups.
Dead Sky
The Road Agents take the stage with their Montana-infused rock n’ roll on Oct. 7th. The guitar and mandolin duo comprised of Jeff Peterson and Justin Ringsak covers a wide range of topics, from songs about firewood to those about robbing banks.
The Hot Springs teams up with Unreal Productions for its first-ever EDM Night on Oct. 10th. Featuring local DJs Not Sure, Mister Spicy, Mirai and Sounsiva, the show will combine chill, relaxing EDM beats with some more up-tempo danceable songs featuring lights, lasers and bass.
A veteran of the Bozeman music scene, Dustin Tucker fronts a solo show on Oct. 14th. His music can be described as a mix of rock riffage, soul and groove-based pop. It combines catchy hooks and melodies with dynamic guitar and vocals. The Pinky & the Floyd guitarist released his first solo record Figurine last year, as well as follow-up single “Young Love” in 2021.
Swamp Dawg follows on Oct. 17th. Rocking the Bozeman area with their “Swampy Southern Soul and New Orleans-style Funk,” the band is dedicated to making crowds groove and sing. The members – bringing vocals, multiple guitars, drums, bass, and keys – come from all over the country, but converged in Bozeman with an awesome, funky sound similar to the jazzy style of music that can be found in the Big Easy.
Guitar-playing, banjo-plucking songwriter Ryan Acker drops his guitar case at the Hot Springs on Oct. 21st. He’s a founding member of the Minneapolis-based Americana band The Last Revel. Playing a healthy blend of acoustic versions of the full band’s songs and some fun covers, Acker engages audiences with his amazing performances.
Bozeman is home to a wide array of amazing indie rock groups, and the Hot Springs is showcasing a few in its inaugural Indie Rock Night on Oct. 24th. The evening will feature sets by the Dane Andrew Thompsen Band, Tiny Iota and The Lovedarts. Come one, come all!
Missoula-based singer/songwriter, guitarist and composer John Floridis engages soakers with an Oct. 28th performance. He has released several recordings mixing bluesy, folk-rock vocal tunes with adventurous solo acoustic guitar compositions. Captivating audiences with all the components of his music – the vocals, words and pure manipulation of sound – Floridis brings a truly unique performance anyone can enjoy.
