Wind in the Willows
4/7 Kylie Spence 6-6:30PM / Wind In the Willows 6:30-8PM Free
There’s nothing better than playing music with your best friend. The Wind and the Willows’ roots lie in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Growing up in the town of Evergreen, Colorado, lead singers Ryen Dalvit and Maren Stubenvoll started writing music in high school, and haven’t stopped playing since. From writing tunes in caves and on top of mountains to performing in taprooms and restaurants at home, these once upon a time classmates became a songwriting duo finding inspiration in their beautiful surroundings and budding sisterhood. Jamming with countless new faces throughout the years, they’ve now brought a distinct sound to Montana blending brass, strings, and triple harmonies with original music. The Wind and the Willows bring a fresh taste of folk to their new home in Bozeman, and they hope you join along!
4/8 Charles Ellsworth 1-3PM Free
His music has been accused of being “A triumph for American songwriting,” but Charles Ellsworth prefers the classification of ‘Redneck Dadrock.’ Currently based out of Brooklyn, NY his roots run back to the mountains of Arizona where he was born and raised, and while the influence of both places can be heard in Ellsworth’s songs so can the pull of the road which keeps him from ever seeing enough of any place he calls home. Charles is currently engaged in a three and a half month tour that includes another full loop of the US and his first run of shows in Australia.
