A quick half hour on the freeway and you’ll arrive at Three Forks’ historic Sacajawea Hotel. Wine and dine upstairs in Pompey’s Grill before spending a night on the dance floor with live music in the Sac Bar. Guests, locals, and people from all around are encouraged to head out and enjoy. Here’s a look at some of the upcoming acts.
Diamond will be ready to entertain on Saturday, December 1st. The sprightly duo of Colette and Kenny Diamond bring a unique and engaging musical experience, with a song selection from today’s hits, country, classic rock, R&B, and crowd pleasing sing-alongs. Colette – kicking bass, playing piano, percussion, and vocals – brings a level of entertainment that lights up the room. Kenny, the second half of the popular duo, often straps on an electric guitar and delivers renditions of classic ‘70s and ‘80s guitar riffs. Kenny’s sound is big, and Diamond plays songs you do not expect to come out of a two-piece.
Comstock Lode bring a lively performance on Friday, December 7th. Bozeman’s best classic rock n’ roll and country western band plays covers from the ‘60s through the ‘00s. Creedence, Eagles, Green Day, Grand Funk, Elvis, Skynard, Beatles, Nirvana, Cash, George Strait, Garth Brooks, Vince Gill, Merle Haggard – just wait a couple minutes and you’ll hear an old or new favorite.
On Saturday, December 8th, party with The MAX. The popular band has entertained and delighted audiences nationwide since the mid-80s, calling Montana home since 1993. With Kyle Brenner (guitar), Mike Young (drums), and Bobb Clanton (bass), The MAX plays spot-on renditions of a wide variety of choice danceable rock n’ roll covers and has two original albums, Shadows in the Shade and Vinyl Valentine. The MAX has opened for Styx, REO Speedwagon, and The Fabulous Thunderbirds.
Sunrise Karaoke will test vocal abilities on Friday, December 14th. 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, December 15th. 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.
