Ben Larson and the Grownass Men

Take a visit to Philipsburg, Montana and you will find a little town of 900 that is quirky, spooky, steeped in history and rough around the edges. Just like the town where they reside, Ben Larson and the Grownass Men bring to the stage a completely original sound that doesn’t quite fit in any one musical genre. With roots in Country/Western storytelling, bluegrass, US National Guard Brass band and a sugar high at an unsupervised daycare, Ben and the band combine their vastly different life experiences into original songs of daily life in modern rural Montana, the ghosts of Montana’s past and wry words of wisdom compiled over years of living outside and working with their hands. Be ready for family friendly singalongs and completely unexpected covers that will have your twisting your ear horns and politely asking for more!

The Grownass Men were road warriors in 2023, playing 117 shows from Harlowton to Dillon to Whitefish, opening for bands such as Big Richard, Eli Howard and the Greater Good and Laney Lou and the Bird Dogs and building a dedicated following in every small Montana town along the way. Their tour continues in 2024 with a plan to play all 56 counties in the state of Montana. They are opening for a variety of bands including the Wilder Blue, Driftwood and Aidan Canfield. 

Their debut self-titled EP Ben Larson and the Grownass Men, can be found on all major streaming platforms. Their new single “Dirtbag” is available now wherever music is heard.

But you'll normally find him back in Montana where he's played at a plethora of bars, breweries, restaurants, resorts, and festivals such as Moods of the Madison and Groovin' on the Gallatin.  Mathias is currently gearing up for another busy summer of gigs around Big Sky and Bozeman.

Sammy Brue

"Stories are all around us, and I’m listening to people even when they think I'm not," states Sammy Brue. "If I get to the emotion of it, I can find the words.”

Realism and storytelling are qualities that are prominent on I Am Nice, the 15-year-old Utah singer-songwriter's New West debut. The 12-song album—produced by Ben Tanner of Alabama Shakes and John Paul White of the Civil Wars—shows the young troubadour to be a timeless talent whose catchy compositions embody the sort of wisdom, empathy and insight that's usually associated with more experienced songwriters.

On such distinctive originals as "I Know," "Was I the Only One," "I Never Said" and "Control Freak," Brue demonstrates a rare knack for placing himself in the shoes of others, real or fictionalized, and writing melodically inventive, emotionally resonant stories about them. No wonder he's been hailed as an "Americana prodigy" by Rolling Stone and as a "wunderkind" by American Songwriter, as well as receiving early attention from The Wall Street Journal and The Fader, and from his local ABC TV station.

Yellowstone Women’s Music Collective

Ella Rae Cole is a local singer-songwriter whose music merges the genres of folk and jazz to create an ambient acoustic sound. She writes in both English and Portuguese and experiments with alternate tunings on the guitar. Ella’s debut full-length album is in the works!

Shelly Besler Kersbergen is a Livingston, MT based singer/songwriter who counts Kim Richey, Patty Griffin, Kelly Willis and Nanci Griffith among her influences. She performs regularly in the surrounding area with Tony Polecastro and has had the privilege of opening for artists such as Holly Williams and Corb Lund. You can find some of her music on iTunes, Spotify and YouTube.

Lena Marie Schiffer is a folk singer and songwriter based in Livingston, Montana. She has carved a notable niche in the music industry, particularly during her decade-long journey with the bluegrass group, Laney Lou and the Bird Dogs. Lena is a prolific songwriter who writes vocal melodies influenced by women such as Joni Mitchell and Alison Krauss, and plays a distinctive fusion of folk, indie, and Americana influences.

Singer songwriter Steph Yeager came by her genuine and soulful sound honestly. From childhood summers immersed in delta music in Memphis, to growing up immersing herself around slam poets in Chicagoland coffee shops, to absorbing country & Americana while living in TN, to living in the Arctic and singing Leonard cohen on repeat, to now settling in the vast landscapes of Montana. Her writing is as brave, layered, cheeky, and vulnerable as her many experiences and wild heart.

Raven Rōshi

Raven Rōshi is an indie folk rock music project led by American singer songwriter Charles Wolf Drimal of Bozeman, Montana. Inspired by the mystique of the raven, the liberated mind of a Zen master, wild landscapes, a lineage of lovers, social renegades, mischievous mountain sages, and flamenco shredders.

If Leonard Cohen, Robert Hunter, Townes Van Zandt, Walt Whitman, Robert Plant, and Chief Joseph wrote music together by campfire under the stars with a little sparkle in their eyes, it might sound like RAVEN RŌSHI – an original chill vibe with cathartic undertones.
