  • 2 PM - Tom Catmull

    Tom Catmull is a word enthusiast. They are the larger part of what makes his world go round. He’s spent the last twenty-five years in his adopted hometown of Missoula, MT presenting words in ways to make them as alluring as possible to people who crave such things. The tricks useful to achieving this feat include infectious melody, thoughtful arrangement, storytelling, some finger picking and a clean shirt. The last couple of decades have included seven full length albums, a few television appearances (Montana PBS 11th and Grant), a hundred theater performances (The Wilma, The Rex, The Roxy, The Dennison, etc), dozens of festivals, countless honkytonks and two ridiculously fun national anthems. He’s been the supporting act for Robert Earl Keen, Charlie Musselwhite, Junior Brown, Asleep at the Wheel and a dozen others. There exists some confidence that his roots-driven Americana songs are worthy of your time. Don’t be fooled, though. The acoustic guitar, harmonica, and hat are just cheap ploys to get the words out in front of you.

  • 6 PM - Kyle Hunter and The Mountain Standard

    Since 2023,  Kyle Hunter & his outfit have been paving their way into the scene from the open skies, tall peaks, and rugged heart of Montana. Kyle Hunter & The Mountain Standard are redefining Americana with a raw, high-energy edge that blends alt-country, barroom grit, and funky electric twang. Led by the magnetic Kyle Hunter, their sound ranges from traditional country, folk/rock, & bluegrass all the way to modern alt/country and everything in between - Inspired by the likes of Marty Robbins, The Allman Brothers, and Bill Withers. Kyle & the band soar with driving rhythms that hit as hard in a roadhouse club as they do on a festival stage.

    Formed by a collective of seasoned musicians with deep roots in rock, folk, funk, and country traditions, Kyle Hunter & The Mountain Standard have quickly carved out a name for themselves across the Northwest and beyond. Known for their dynamite live shows with a style that toes the line between rebellion and heartfelt tradition, they’ve turned heads at several high-profile venues and festivals, sharing the stage with some of the genre’s biggest names.

    With lyrics that cut deep and choruses built to shout along to, KHTMS isn’t just a band—it’s a full-throttle Americana experience. Whether you’re in the crowd or cranking it up on the road, this is music made for movement.

  • 8:30 PM - Give It To ‘Em FLORABELLE!
    "Give It To 'Em, FLORABELLE!" is a Missoula, Montana–based honky-tonk soul-funk supergroup known for electrifying, high-energy performances. Bandleader and songwriter Cara Schulz captivates audiences with booming vocals and unapologetically theatrical showmanship. Raised on jazz standards, Schulz developed her voice early before evolving into a songwriter whose work blends jazz roots, country grit, and a deep love for the mountain West.

    In 2023, Schulz returned home to Montana “the land of elk and honey” to assemble a powerhouse lineup and put the region firmly on the musical map. Now widely regarded as one of Montana’s favorite live acts, Florabelle delivers more than a concert, it’s an experience.

    Every show is unpredictable and alive, featuring surprise guests, crowd prizes, and even the occasional round of healthy snacks. Guided by their motto, “One for all, and all for the band,” Florabelle is driven by a mission to spark connection, joy, and inclusivity wherever they play.

    There’s never a rug left uncut at a Florabelle show. In fact… hide your rugs. They simply aren’t safe.
