Pine Creek closes out summer w/Billy Strings & Fred Eaglesmith
Pine Creek Lodge offers an extensive slate of live music to keep guests and others entertained through the summer months. Here’s a look at what’s coming up in Paradise Valley.
Billy Strings makes his way back to Pine Creek on Friday, August 24th at 7pm. Advance tickets are $15, or $20 at the gate.
The Nashville-based musician plays hard and lives hard, picking so fast and intensely that he’s known to break multiple strings per song, and basing the songs he writes on the hard lives he grew up around in the abandoned rural communities of America. His new album, Turmoil & Tinfoil, taps into a deep vein of psychedelia in Americana, referencing everything from the Dead to Sturgill Simpson, but all underlaid by Strings’ undeniable virtuosity and knowledge of the roots of American music. He’s one of the most beloved young guitarists today within the bluegrass community, and his front porch in East Nashville is constantly filled up with Nashville’s best roots musicians just picking up a storm.
Close out summer with Fred Eaglesmith & Tif Ginn on Saturday, September 1st at 7pm. Advance tickets are $20, or $25 at the gate.
Award-winning, acclaimed singer/songwriter Fred Eaglesmith’s talent for storytelling through his songs continues to draw universal appeal and pushes the craft to a higher form. And on his latest studio album, Standard, Eaglesmith’s indelible characters and narratives jump to life and leave listeners satisfied even amongst imperfections and broke-down machines and relationships.
The enigmatic, countrified, rock n’ roll troubadour visits Southwest Montana with musical wife Tif Ginn. She’s a gutsy, amazing singer and a transcendent songwriter who has spent most of her life touring and playing music. Her impressive, sultry vocals and glorious harmonies with Fred, along with her multiple instrument additions to the show will have you in awe.
