Polly O’Keary & the Rhythm Method are back at Chico on Sunday, September 2nd for a special Labor Day Dance   Catch some great live music at Chico Hot Springs Saloon after a relaxing dip or drive through Paradise Valley. Live entertainment heads to Pray every Friday and Saturday evening – and Sundays through the summer – so you can kick up your feet and soak them too!

www.TWANG brings the party on Friday and Saturday, August 24th–25th. Their name says it all. The truck drivin’, heart breakin’, honky-tonk dance band has been offering up real country music to their fans since 1998. No smarmy, plastic hat-wearing, Nashville pop from these guys. Classic country and seamless TWANG originals set this band apart from all others in the Western U.S. The band features the combined talents of bass player and vocalist Russ Olsen, drummer Mike Gillan, fiddle and stand up steel guitar player Mike Parsons, lead guitarist and songwriter Marcus Engstrom, as well as rhythm guitar player and songwriter Buck Buchanan. These guys take no prisoners and leave nothing but happy dancers in their wake. Don’t miss a chance to take in one of their “real deal, premium country music” shows. You won’t be sorry.
Paul Lee Kupfer is set for Sunday, August 26th. Originally from the Mountains of West Virginia, Kupfer has travelled as a solo performer and band leader since 2008 while living in Philadelphia, California, Tennessee, Montana, and towns in between. He has a distinctive approach and his arrangements are inventive and fun. Restless touring and writing has allowed him to share the bill with some of his heroes and bring his music to many different kinds of people across the United States. Kupfer is a member of local trio the Bus Driver Tour alongside Danny Freund and Ian Thomas.
Rock, reggae, funk, and country group Downtime will take the stage Friday, August 31st and Saturday, September 1st. The Billings-based band originally formed as a three-piece acoustic cover group. Marco Castro, Gerrick Phillips, and Josh Moore earned their initial reputation, but the band has since grown to a full electric outfit adding Dennis Mailloux (bass guitar) and Luke Kestner (drums). The group will keep the party going, so be sure to rest up before you catch one of these shows!
Polly O’Keary & the Rhythm Method are back at Chico on Sunday, September 2nd for a special Labor Day Dance beginning at 4pm. O’Keary is a fan favorite in the Pacific Northwest and around the United States and Canada. With her top-shelf trio – featuring Tommy Cook (drums) and David Miller (guitar) – she performs a mix of soul, funk, blues and rock that has won her top honors as a songwriter, singer and performer from blues societies around the PNW. She is well known for her joyous, explosive stage performances, her powerful and expressive voice, and powerful bass grooves. The band’s latest album, Black Crow Callin’, is available now.
Chico Saloon music begins at 9pm, unless otherwise noted. Chico Hot Springs is located in Pray, 20 miles south of Livingston. Come sip, soak, and swing! For more information, call (406) 333-4933 or visit www.chicohotsprings.com. •
