The Sacajawea Hotel in Three Forks is a place to wine, dine, and enjoy some of Montana’s best live music. Hotel guests, locals, and people from all around are welcome head out and enjoy everything the Sac has to offer. Here’s a look at some of the upcoming music.
El Wencho returns for a performance on Friday, March 30th. For most people, the image of an “acoustic duo” conjures images of two soft spoken musicians singing folk rock and hippie jam songs. This is not the case with The Wench. Two original members of The Clintons, John and Josh joke, “we’re half the band, twice the party!” The guys are no strangers to throwing a rocking good time. Their show is a hotdish or “badasserole” of musical genres and style.
Exit 288 is set for Saturday, March 31st. The high energy group performs everything from classic and contemporary rock, to blues, country, and all that’s in between. Exit 288 connects with the audience and creates a fun and exciting atmosphere. The band’s music is carefully selected to get people involved in the party and to keep the dance floor hopping! Exit 288 will bring a return performance to the Sac on Saturday, April 21st.
Kicking off a new month, GrooveWax performs Friday, April 6th. The band is composed of former Jamelution members Cindy Damjanovich, Junior Damjanovich, and Nik Damjanovich, plus SaddleTramp’s Gary Peterson, and Rockin’ Steve “Monster” Melia. They play rock, country, and blues.
Sugar Daddies return with all the favorites on Saturday, April 7th. This Montana-based trio is comprised of Richard Riesser (guitar, vocals), Oscar Dominguez (keyboards, bass and vocals), and Ron Craighead (drums, vocals). The band has been successfully performing in various venues throughout Southwest Montana since its inception in 2012. While the gist of their material is popular rock ‘n’ roll, country, oldies, R&B and blues, they also have an extensive arsenal of original songs, all of which are palatable, as well as an array of lesser-known but still great songs by both obscure and well-known artists/songwriters. Their main focus is variety, and they half-jokingly have a motto of “No request left behind.”
Sunrise Karaoke will test your vocal abilities on Friday, April 13th. Bring your favorite songs and get ready to impress — or at least give it your best shot! You haven’t done karaoke until you’ve done it with Sunrise.
www.TWANG brings the party on Saturday, April 14th. 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.
CatSkills pop in for a lively performance on Friday, April 20th. Listeners and dancers enjoy this diverse trio’s style, playing a wide variety of classic rock, country, and more. The group was formed in 2016 by three musical friends — Bruce Craig, Ken Nelson, and Allan Langdon.
