Hawthorne Roots bring free outdoor performance to West
This summer, West Yellowstone Chamber of Commerce presents evenings of FREE outdoor live music in Pioneer Park on the New Stage, located at the corner of Highway 20 and Canyon St. Music in the Park is a treat for visitors, where they can experience the old fashioned pleasure of music flowing across the town during this summer concert series. Bring your blankets, chairs, and the whole family to enjoy the live entertainment. Come soak up the sound and take in a beautiful Montana sunset! Here’s a look at the upcoming festivities.
Check out The Hawthorne Roots on Saturday, July 22nd at 7pm. Montana had a need for soul music, so the group took their passion and talent and revved up the genre to another level. Defined by tightly-woven harmonies and relentlessly catchy melodies, The Hawthorne Roots bring a distinctly unique and exciting sound to the Montana music scene. Sisters Emma and Madeline Kelly front a band of performers that also includes Dustin Crowson (bass), Lucas Mace (guitar), and Michael DeJaynes (drums, vocals). The Hawthorne Roots bring a soulful and energetic performance to the stage, every lyric sung with true passion and genuine elegance. Their repertoire explores different emotions and pushes the boundaries of what is known as the Americana genre of music. Their unique style of “Revved-Up Soul Music” has gained momentum and admiration. They do not write by the rules. The music of The Hawthorne Roots comes from nowhere else, but the heart.
Looking ahead, Groove Wax is set for Saturday, August 26th at 7pm. The band is comprised of former Jamelution members Cindy Damjanovich, Junior Damjanovich, and Nik Damjanovich, plus former SaddleTramp Band member Gary Peterson. They play rock, country, and blues.
West Yellowstone is the west entrance and gateway community to Yellowstone National Park.
