With back-to-school season quickly approaching, there’s but a month left to enjoy weekday outings with the entire family in tow. Recharge with a stop into Downtown Bozeman’s Wild Joe*s following those final summer adventures. And if your timing’s right, the Coffee Spot is also a great place to check out acoustic sets by local and traveling artists. Here’s a look at what’s coming up.
On Saturday, August 10th, Minnesota singer/songwriter Dave Cofell performs from 6–8pm. Cofell’s songwriting reflects both his rural roots and lifelong musical explorations. His performances include a variety of styles on six and twelve-string guitars and banjo. Show attendees will hear, among others, the influences of Neil Young, Johnny Cash, Fats Waller, Hank Williams Sr., Howlin’ Wolf, Pete Seeger, Leo Kottke, Stan Rogers, John Denver and Leadbelly. Cofell’s live shows are entertaining, engaging and audience-inclusive. His latest release, A Thousand Shades of Blue, is available now.
Looking to Friday, August 16th, Bozeman-based Sundance & the Wilds bring an indie rock sound that’ll make anyone listening want to groove. With their indie-rock stylings paired with some intense jam-style sessions, the band has been taking the Bozeman area by storm since its inception. Coffee Spot-goers can expect an evening of originals mixed with a range of rock and blues covers from the 60s to now.
