Hot plates & fantastic live acts at Kountry Korner
Evening live music in Four Corners, three nights per week! The Kountry Korner Café serves a tasty breakfast and/or dinner, as well as local musician residencies throughout the month. Here’s a look at some upcoming event dates.
Rich Mayo performs every Tuesday at 6pm. Upcoming dates include July 24th and 31st. A multi-instrumentalist, Mayo plays the guitar, harp, and vocals. He performs an Americana mix you’re sure to enjoy, and his wife, Tanna, often adds a flute and lovely female voice.
Claudia Williams performs every Friday night at 5:30pm. She’ll be ready to entertain July 27th and August 3rd. Williams has been singing in the Big Sky Country most of her life. As the lead singer of Montana Rose, she’s following her dream of songwriting and interpreting songs of others that speak to her soul. She enjoys telling the stories of life and love in the west, sharing tales that most just dream about. A true Montana icon, she was born and raised in the West and carries on the culture in music. Williams interprets standards like “Walkin’ After Midnight,” “I Fall to Pieces,” “Sweet Dreams,” and others, with an erotic tenderness that’s less country than it is late-night hip. A little folk, country and blues, it’s American roots music.
A local pianist and KKC fixture, Bob Britten brings Saturday performances July 28th and August 4th at 5:30pm each evening. Britten studied piano and guitar as a youth growing up in New Jersey, but it was the guitar that brought him to Montana. He studied classical guitar and attended Christopher Parkening’s master classes at Montana State University in 1981 and 1982. Bob played guitar and piano in various bands in Billings including the Gentlemen of Jazz and solo piano nightly at the Cellar 301 for several years.
