Gallatin Valley tribute group 710 Ashbury deliver a pair of shows on March 7th and 8th. The Helena four-piece lays down all your classic Grateful Dead favorites with every spirited performance.

Check out Ian Thomas & Band of Drifters on March 14th and 15th. The group plays modern American roots music and encourage audiences to dance. Based mostly in Montana and Tennessee, the band also includes players from all over the country, keeping the music varied in arrangement, instrumentation and regional influences. The Drifters’ sets draw from country, folk and blues traditions with an emphasis on original songs, done in the old style.
Rock, rhythm & blues artists Gary Small & the Coyote Brothers perform March 21st and 22nd. If you love blues, rockabilly, surf, and plain ole good times music, then you’re in the right place – they’re known as “Purveyors of Good Boogie Music.” The Coyote Bros are a diverse band defined by its rockabilly, blues, cajun, surf, reggae, and anything else they deem cool.
Later this month is Helena’s Ten Years Gone on March 28th and 29th. The band is all about performing great, danceable music – everything from classic rock to alternative, funk, country, pop and dance. They always bring a crowd and an excellent sound.
