Tasting room ditties by Edis Kittrell, Taylor McCarl & more

Bozeman Spirits in historic Downtown Bozeman is a great place to warm up with a drink or two! The distillery also hosts live music by great local artists every Tuesday from 5:30–8pm in their welcoming tasting room. Here’s a look at the upcoming acts.
Local Americana artist Lucas Mace will perform for distillery-goers on Tuesday, April 17th. Come enjoy an adult beverage and listen to some great acoustics from Hawthorne Roots’ lead guitarist.
Edis Kittrell returns Tuesday, April 24th. Edis’ unique brand of folky, bluesy tunes has moved and entertained audiences for many years. She performs at various venues and functions in solo, duo, and trio acts, as well as with her band Edis and the Incredibles. Her primary instruments are her powerful and heartfelt vocals. She also plays six and twelve-string guitar, four and five-string bass, ukulele, and percussion. Influences include Bonnie Raitt, Marshall Tucker, and George Jones, but whatever the song, you can count on heartfelt vocals and fine musicality. Note: the previously announced performance by Kevin Grastorf has been cancelled.
              Helena-based Taylor McCarl follows Tuesday, May 1st. The singer/songwriter is inspired by all genres and not restricted to one. His thoughtful lyrics are combined with multiple instrumental styles, all surrounding the acoustic guitar and intricate finger picking. Taylor is ready to see the world and help others express themselves while being inspired by friends, family, and new experiences.
Looking ahead, Bottom of the Barrel bring a performance on Tuesday, May 8th. The honky-tonk country and rock band visits the big city from Big Sky. Formed in the summer of 2010 from the remnants of other local bands and open mic night regulars, Bottom of the Barrel features the rhythm section of Jon Parvin (bass) and Tom Casale (drums) and the vocal/guitar duo of Jeff Bellino and Lauren Regnier. The result is a steady rockin’ country show with vocal harmonies and a danceable groove.
Bozeman Spirits Distillery’s tasting room offers a warm and welcoming environment. With the history kept alive in the reclaimed wood and metals throughout, you will feel the modern charm and history as you walk in. Your fresh cocktail is served upon wood from the 1930s, and the bar brings the atmosphere of the old saloon. The beautiful stills and production are seen through the back glass windows of the tasting room, and the mixologists will be happy to explain distilling techniques from the grains, mashing, blending, and bottling processes.
