Chris is a singer/songwriter who writes about family, travelers, snowplow drivers, spiritual growth, volcanoes, old flames, and the natural beauty of Montana. A member of the acoustic-folk duo Storyhill and a native of Bozeman, Chris has been making and releasing albums for 25 years, the most recent being the self-produced If You Knew All Along. He is also the owner of Basecamp Recording where he produces high quality and customized recordings for singers, songwriters, and bands.

Looking ahead, Acony Belles return to the brewery on Wednesday, November 22nd. Based out of beautiful Bozeman, the Belles are an all female, estrogen-fueled musical trio. In a world of guy bands, these lovely ladies will melt your hearts and minds. The group is comprised of Betsy Wise (guitar), Chelsea Hunt (fiddle), and keeping the two of them in time is Jody Engstrom (stand-up bass). Acony Belles draw inspiration from luminaries like Gillian Welch, Patty Griffin, and the Wailin’ Jennys, while keeping in touch with the simple roots of blues, bluegrass, and Americana.
