The Benevolents with Galactic Axis & Austin Britton at the ZACC

Doors @ 7:00 pm

The Benevolents with Galactic Axis & Austin Britton at the ZACC in Missoula Friday at 7:30 pm.
Based out of Missoula, Montana, The Benevolents are a groovy folk-rock five-piece that blends ripping guitar and fiddle solos, catchy vocal harmonies, and a driving rhythmic flow into funky, meter-crossing tunes. The band primarily plays the globally-influenced compositions of John Kratz, lead singer and finger-style electric guitarist, who writes and sings in English and Spanish about nature, beauty, love, and loss. Holly Riley animates the music with her precise harmonies and energetic fiddle playing. Michael Calucchia adds his powerful voice and rhythmic mandolin technique. Holding down the rhythm section are Daniel Kiely, who brings a bit of Alabama soul to his driving drum beats, and Ryan Stiles, groovemaster extraordinaire on the bass.

Galactic Axis is a new rock-fusion band in Missoula, Montana, featuring PanMan on drums, Rau D. on bass, and Matty J on lead guitar & vocals. A galaxy of original music awaits concert goers seeking energetic, dynamic, interstellar jams!

Austin Britton has been playing music his whole life, and has been doing it in Missoula the past 4 years. He has just released a new single ‘Make A Friend’ on all streaming platforms. You can follow him on instagram at @austinbrittonmusic and visit his website austinbrittonmusic.com. He continues to write, record, and play shows all over and loves having Missoula as his homebase.
