THE MAX are set to take the stage on Friday, January 15th. This popular band has entertained and delighted audiences nationwide since the mid-80s, calling Montana home since 1993. With Kyle Brenner on guitar, Mike Young on drums, and Bobb Clanton on bass, THE MAX plays spot-on renditions of a wide variety of choice danceable rock and roll covers and has two original CDs, titled “Shadows in the Shade” and “Vinyl Valentine.” THE MAX has opened for Styx, REO Speedwagon, and The Fabulous Thunderbirds, and has played in every venue from bars to weddings to outdoor concerts in front of festival crowds as large as 80,000. Rocky Mountain Pearls will perform on Saturday, January 23rd. The Pearls are a fun, crowd-pleasing country group from right here in Bozeman. They enjoy playing for their energetic following and everybody else, throughout the bar scene and for private events. They thrive off audience response to their powerful harmonies and music that makes everyone want to get up and dance. The annual Mixers Country Showcase will take place on Friday, January 29th. Come on out to Mixers Saloon on a Wild West Wednesday for free dance lessons with Joel from 8 to 9 pm. There will be $3 Jack Daniels and draft beers all day and every day to keep you from being parched. On Thursday nights, Kerrie from the Movement Art Center will teach you all the country moves you’ll need to know to look like you should be out on the new dance floor. Come learn some new moves so you can show them off on the weekends during live music nights! Mixers in now Bozeman’s only dedicated country bar.
Fridays are “Whiskey Friday”, with $2.50 premium whiskey pouring all day and night. If you get there before the band starts, there are four pool tables to keep you occupied as well as a room full of casino machines.
