SUMMARY:TNR / Thursday Night MTB Ride Missoula - Stuart Peak Bike & Hike
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for a big TNR / Thursday Night MTB Missoula ride – meet at 6:00 pm at the main Rattlesnake Recreation Area trailhead lot to venture up for a Stuart Peak Bike & Hike\n\n\n\n\n\nStuart Peak Bike & HikeThis Thursday\, we’ll meet at 6:00 pm at the Rattlesnake Trailhead\, ride to the Wilderness Boundary\, and hike to Stuart Peak to watch the sunset. This is a long and somewhat challenging outing. The middle section—from the head of Spring Gulch to the Stuart Peak trail switchbacks—is a sustained climb. Everyone will likely need to hike-a-bike a bit or at least pause to catch their breath. \n\n\n\nOnce you reach the culvert\, the grade slackens and the switchbacks to the top make for great riding—both up and down. It’s about 8 miles to the Wilderness boundary and another mile to the peak (we’ll hike off-trail to take the most direct route). This is an out-and-back route\, so feel free to join for any portion and turn around at any point—just let someone know so we don’t wait for you. \n\n\n\nBoundary RidersSome folks will likely bike to the Wilderness Boundary and return to hopefully make it back before dark. Bring a light (or two) and some warm layers. A few years ago\, a broken chain forced a group to make an unplanned descent after dark. \n\n\n\nPeak BaggersIf you’re heading all the way to the peak\, a good night-riding light is a must. Bring warm layers for the descent and consider packing hiking shoes if you ride clipless. We’ll wait for everyone to return from the summit before descending together to ensure no one is left behind. \n\n\n\nMeeting PointMain Rattlesnake Trailhead \n\n\n\nTrail MapWilderness Boundary BikeStuart Peak Hike \n\n\n\nRecommended GearJacketNight riding lightHiking shoes (optional) \n\n\n\nSee you on top!

SUMMARY:Jonah Kagen & Crowe Boys at The Top Hat
DESCRIPTION:Logjam Presents welcomes Jonah Kagen & Crowe Boys for a live performance at The Top Hat in Downtown Missoula  at 8:00 pm Wednesday\, July 16\n\n\n\n\n\nLogjam Presents welcomes Jonah Kagen & Crowe Boys for a live performance at The Top Hat in Downtown Missoula  at 8:00 pm Wednesday\, July 16. \n\n\n\nTickets on sale at Logjam Presents Box Offices and online while supplies last. All tickets are general admission standing room only with limited bench seating. All ages are welcome. \n\n\n\nTake a look at these tips to best prepare yourself for a smooth ticket buying experience. \n\n\n\nAdditional ticketing and venue information can be found here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Jonah KagenA Savannah\, GA native\, Jonah Kagen is the embodiment of raw talent and relentless dedication. At just 25\, Jonah has already made waves with over 386 million global streams\, 2.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify\, and two critically acclaimed EPs—The Roads and Black Dress\, featuring hit “God Needs The Devil” which is presently Top 15 at Alternative radio and was chosen as one of Spotify’s Best Pop Songs of 2024. \n\n\n\nJonah’s unique artistry extends beyond his deep\, universally resonant songwriting. He is also a skilled guitarist and instrumentalist\, having played many instruments since childhood. And to round out his self-sufficiency\, he has taught himself how to produce every note\,  most recently in an Airstream that he transformed into his personal mobile studio. \n\n\n\nThe Airstream isn’t just a fun adventure; it’s a reflection of Jonah’s spirit\, drawing inspiration from both nature and legends before him like Townes Van Zandt\, Jason Isbell\, and Andy McKee. Whether touring on his sold-out solo dates or performing alongside the likes of Sam Barber and Chance Peña in the US and abroad\, Jonah’s sound is a blend of personal experience and universal connection. Unsurprisingly\, Jonah’s balance of grit and musicality make him a festival mainstay having performed at the historic Austin City Limits\,  AmericanaFest\, Summerfest\, and RedWestwith and will continue this summer with stops at RiverBeat\, Under The Big Sky\, Calgary Stampede\, Bourbon & Beyond\, and more. \n\n\n\nWith his electrifying energy\, sincere songwriting\, and genre-defying sound\, Jonah Kagen is one to watch. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Crowe BoysCrowe Boys have been making music since both could pick up an instrument. Their music was an integral part of their family’s traveling lifestyle. While aspects of their career have changed over the years\, the underlying message of their music has not. Being positive and sharing hope has always been their trademark. Now\, a couple of decades later\, that is still the case. \n\n\n\nTheir journey took an exciting turn when they crossed paths with Andrew Campanelli\, drummer for the multi-platinum band The Revivalists\, who recognized the magic in their sound and stepped in as their producer. Together\, they began recording a collection of songs\, sharing the journey in real-time on social media. \n\n\n\nThen\, in early 2024\, a casual TikTok post featuring their song “Where Did I Go Wrong” went viral\, changing everything. The raw\, heartfelt clip exploded\, racking up tens of millions of views and earning the Crowe Boys thousands of new fans overnight. Their authentic rise caught the attention of Universal Music Group Nashville\, who signed the duo shortly after. With over 600K followers across social media\, the Crowe Boys’ rapidly growing fanbase is a testament to their genuine connection with their audience. \n\n\n\nWith new music and tours planned through the end of 2024 and into 2025\, the Crowe Boys are just getting started.

SUMMARY:Why We Went West\, Austin Britton & Lucas Yatch at Zootown Arts Community Center
DESCRIPTION:It’s a triple bill at The ZACC in Downtown Missoula on Wednesday night\, with Lucas Ray Yatch\, Austin Britton and Why We Went West performing starting at 7:30 pm\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors at 7:00 pm \n\n\n\nLucas Ray Yatch is an American singer-songwriter from northern Montana. Mixing honest and heartfelt lyrics with bluesy guitar riffs. Playing as a one-man band\, Lucas transcends the traditional singer songwriter with a driving lush sound. \n\n\n\nAustin Britton writes whatever kind of song he wants\, whenever he wants to. This freedom has had very limited success in traditional industry metrics\, but creatively it is right where Austin wants to be. No record label or persona to keep up with. It is all about a good song\, which can sound all kinds of ways\, and Austin has been committed to this openness with the craft since he began writing songs over 20 years ago. He’s inspired by inspiration and you can anticipate hearing songs you haven’t heard before and making your own opinions. It’s local music. There is no app for this. Cheers. \n\n\n\nThrough original compositions\, improvisational sonic landscapes\, and intimate storytelling\, Why We Went West traces the internal and external landscapes we traverse in search of home\, healing\, and meaning. Inspired by the cycles of nature and the resilience of the human spirit\, this work honors both the grief of what is left behind while compelling us forward. Together\, we brave the realities faced amidst great change and challenge. Why We Went West journeys with us\, rooted in the power of a love-led existence and shared emotional resonance.

SUMMARY:Andy Frasco & The U.N. with Cordovas at The Wilma
DESCRIPTION:Logjam Presents welcomes Andy Frasco & The U.N. for a live concert on the Growing Pains Tour with Cordovas at The Wilma in Downtown Missoula at 8:00 pm Friday\, June 27\n\n\n\n\n\nLogjam Presents welcomes Andy Frasco & The U.N. for a live concert on the Growing Pains Tour with Cordovas at The Wilma in Downtown Missoula at 8:00 pm Friday\, June 27. \n\n\n\nTickets on sale at Logjam Presents Box Offices and online while supplies last. All tickets are general admission standing room only. All ages are welcome. \n\n\n\nTake a look at these tips to best prepare yourself for a smooth ticket buying experience. \n\n\n\nAdditional ticketing and venue information can be found here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Andy Frasco & The U.N.With curly tufts of a recognizable Jewfro peeking out from his omnipresent knit cap\, Andy Frasco is a cross between John Belushi’s “Joliet” Jake Blues and Jimmy Buffett. He’s a band-fronting\, songwriting party animal who turns into a swirling rock ‘n’ roll Tasmanian Devil onstage leading his U.N.\, not unlike Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band. From switching instruments mid-song to Frasco stagediving into the crowd or kibitzing with them\, an Andy Frasco & The U.N. show is a celebration of inclusivity and tolerance where “You do You” and “let us do us.” \n\n\n\nThe band has grown from playing bars to touring more than 250 days a year all over the country\, with Frasco describing that 15-year journey on Growing Pains\, the group’s landmark 10th studio album and first full-length effort since 2023’s L’Optimist\, showcasing Andy’s growth as a tunesmith in his own right. \n\n\n\nProduced by Frasco himself for the first time\, the collection’s centerpiece is the anthemic “Try Not to Die\,” a glass half-full anthem to seizing the day that combines country twang with an easy island breeze in its affirmative message. \n\n\n\n“Life is Easy\,” featuring bluegrass superstar Billy Strings\, Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country and co-writer/frequent collaborators Steve Poltz (Rugburns\, Jewel) and Chris Gelbuda (Meghan Trainor)\, is a folk protest anthem. “Swinging for the Fences\,” featuring cameos by G. Love and Eric Krasno (Lettuce\, Tedeschi Trucks Band Soulive)\, is a Motown-flavored paean to dating someone out of your league. The playful “They Call Me Hollywood (But I’m from LA)\,” co-written with frequent partner Kenny Carkeet\, features rapper ProbCause\, while the title track is a sing-song\, hip-hop-influenced rhyme about embracing change and taking it day-to-day. \n\n\n\nFrasco wrote most of Growing Pains in Nashville with his longtime guitarist Shawn Eckels and frequent songwriting partners Chris Gelbuda\, Steve Poltz\, and Andrew Cooney. \n\n\n\n“I came into this life wanting to write songs\,” said Frasco. “It took 15 years\, but I feel I’m starting to get credit for it. My cup is full. I’m really starting to see my dreams come true.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout CordovasThe story of Cordovas is one of rock ’n’ roll seekers\, hammering away in search not just for a platonic ideal of their freewheeling sound\, but also for some greater truth about our experience as humans. The band is fueled by the long strange trip of frontman Joe Firstman\, who had a circuitous path through his young adulthood — spat out from the major label system\, a stint as a bandleader on Last Call With Carson Daly\, and finally finding his way back to himself\, a mystic classicist who has guided Cordovas through their own series of twists and turns. That includes their new record The Rose of Aces\, which finds them returning with their finest collection of music yet. \n\n\n\nCordovas’ origins go all the way back the early ‘10s\, when Firstman decided he was best with a band around him. After releasing a self-titled debut and undergoing various iterations\, things really started cooking when guitarist Lucca Soria joined the fold. Firstman describes him as “the one soldier that understands what I’m doing best.” Soon the band’s vision cohered further\, and they signed to ATO\, releasing the quick one-two of That Santa Fe Channel in 2018 and Destiny Hotel in 2020. \n\n\n\nWhile it might seem like Cordovas were away a bit longer this time\, the music never stopped. The group\, in whatever form it currently exists\, is always active. “When you finish your record\, you’re starting the next one\,” Firstman explains. Cordovas is a state of constant flow: Firstman\, Soria\, and their various co-conspirators gathering in their twin outposts — a farm in Nashville\, and a hideout in the artist community of the Baja California town Todos Santos — to jam out ideas. Before the dust remotely began to settle on Destiny Hotel\, Cordovas were already back in the shop\, working up a trove of songs from which The Rose of Aces would emerge. \n\n\n\nOnce Cordovas had about 20 songs they were happy with\, they linked up with producer Cory Hanson. Firstman bemusedly describes the theoretical mismatch of the pairing — Hanson the Southern California kid coming out to Nashville to work with “a whole bunch of\, you know\, Americans.” Whatever culture clash might’ve been there was just extra gasoline. “He brought a super-charged way of thinking because he’s a genius\,” Firstman says. “He’s built his life wanting to sound like himself.” Hanson ended up contributing vocals and guitar to the album as well. \n\n\n\nThe Rose of Aces begins with a conjuring. “Your song comes on like a cure/ And you remember who you were before/ How many times did music save your soul?” Firstman asks on opener “Fallen Angels of Rock ’n’ Roll.” He goes on to trace rock history from Memphis to Muscle Shoals — though he’ll also quip he’s never actually been to Muscle Shoals. “I’m also aware of all the stuff that came through those places\,” he says. “The criss-cross of American highways\, you can’t take that away from me\, man. I’ve ridden those dirty roads a lot.” \n\n\n\nAs is their custom\, Cordovas held on to “Fallen Angels of Rock ’n’ Roll” for years\, road-testing it and letting it come into its own before it was time to really get it into shape for recording. Firstman reflects on how Cordovas’ always sharpening chops — the band’s playing\, but also his ability to push his voice further — let the song be what it always wanted to be over the years. While the song gives the album a rallying cry\, it’s not without its wistfulness — its title reflecting on friends back in the day who didn’t make it. “The important part is don’t forget what music does for you\,” Firstman says. “It can make you sad\, it can make you happy\, it can remind you of a better time.” \n\n\n\nThere’s no better way to kick off The Rose of Aces and Cordovas’ new chapter. The band has long cited influences like the Allman Brothers Band\, Grateful Dead\, and The Band. And while Cordovas can certainly jam\, they’ve also long been acclaimed as tapping into the more songwriting-oriented side of those forebears. From “Fallen Angels of Rock ’n’ Roll” onward\, you can hear the band honing their craft across The Rose of Aces. “What Is Wrong?” is a sunburnt twilight sigh of a song — originating with some ideas of Soria’s that the band then toyed with\, adding some lyrics (“Are you ready?/ If you’re free enough to do it on your own”) that Firstman worked on with his girlfriend. Throughout his career\, Firstman has taken fragments of various American traditions and turned them over into new lights\, and you can almost hear Cordovas’ music as a travelogue — easy-going yet careening forward\, from the laidback rollick of “Sunshine” to the swamp grooves of “Deep River” to\, eventually\, nodding to their home south of the border with closer “Somos Iguales.” \n\n\n\nIn true rock spirit\, joints are lit and roads are rambled down. Salvation is sought\, but characters stumble into sordid corners\, too. “High Roller\,” another highlight of the album\, tells the story of the narrator and his compatriot Stanley having a chaotic bender at a casino. \n\n\n\nWhen they’re camped out\, friends and artists come and go. The band jams\, and writer pals gather to dissect Marcel Proust or Marcus Aurelius. There’s an almost old-school\, utopian scene at play — like-minded individuals not just improvising and seeing where it goes\, but seeking a purpose through that discourse. There are all kinds of characters in Cordovas’ orbit\, including the namesakes of the album — hotel owners Ace and Rose down in Mexico\, who Firstman paid tribute to via an imagined Tarot card of an album name. \n\n\n\nIf the whole thing sounds like some kind of fantasy\, it didn’t come without a lot of missteps and rebirths\, sweat and hard work. Now 43\, Firstman has already lived more than a few lives. Raised by a weed dealing vet father and an opera singer mother in Charlotte\, the young Firstman took a Greyhound to Los Angeles in the early ‘00s and quickly became a buzzy young songwriter. He was signed to Atlantic\, and released a solo debut called The War of Women in 2003. While the album led to some burgeoning success — including opening slots for Sheryl Crow and Willie Nelson — Firstman embarked on era of self-sabotage. “I was a fucking drunken nightmare\, and the songs weren’t as good the second time around\,” he admits. Soon\, he was dropped from Atlantic\, but landed on his feet with the bandleader gig on Carson Daly’s show\, where his band included Kamasi Washington and Thundercat. \n\n\n\n“I wanted to sing songs I wasn’t embarrassed of\,” Firstman says of the transition from those years to Cordovas. As matter-of-fact and self-deprecating as he can be about his early LA days\, Firstman also holds that time dear as a crucible\, all the hard lessons he had to learn to become who he is now. “Everything is victory as long as you can pull it out of the trash and polish it off and identify it as such\,” Firstman reflects. “That’s a big part of Cordovas. We wanna be better people — but not just for nothing.” \n\n\n\nThat brings us to the parables of Cordovas\, the stories on The Rose of Aces arriving 20 years on from Firstman’s initial stint in the music industry. “With the philosophy\, I’m trying to get you to change your brain and work in a useful way for society\,” Firstman says. “What happens when you let that stuff in and you become it? What does your brain tell you then? Go feel that\, and the standard you set and the call you make to your friends and the thing you said you were gonna do that mattered. How did you feel the next morning? What song did you write?”

The eight piece ensemble burst into the world with their 2014 debut Half the City\, establishing a sound that quickly became a calling card and landing the band a slew of major festivals including Lollapalooza\, Coachella and Glastonbury. Critical praise from The New York Times\, Rolling Stone\, SPIN and NPR followed\, leading to shared stages with some of the world’s biggest artists Elton John and The Rolling Stones among them and launching an impressive run of headlining tours behind what Esquire touted as a “potent live show that knocks audiences on their ass.” \n\n\n\nThe group has continued to expand their sound with every record\, branching out well beyond old school soul into sleek summertime funk and classic disco on albums like 2018’s Young Sick Camellia. Their forthcoming LP\, Angels in Science Fiction \, stretches their limbs further afield\, building on the shadowy psychedelia and intricate\, experimental R&B of 2022’s The Alien Coast. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Wood BrothersThe Wood Brothers have learned to trust their hearts. For the better part of two decades\, they’ve cemented their reputation as freethinking songwriters\, road warriors\, and community builders\, creating a catalog of diverse music and a loyal audience who’ve grown alongside them through the years. \n\n\n\nThat evolution continues with Heart is the Hero\, the band’s eighth studio album. Recorded analog to 16-track tape\, this latest effort finds its three creators embracing the chemistry of their acclaimed live shows by capturing their performances in real-time direct from the studio floor with nary a computer in sight. An acoustic-driven album that electrifies\, Heart is the Hero is stocked with songs that target not only the heart\, but the head and hips\, too. \n\n\n\n“We love records that come from the era of less tracks and more care\,” explains co-founder Oliver Wood. “When you use a computer during the tracking process\, you have an infinite number of tracks at your disposal\, which implies that nothing is permanent\, and everything can be fixed. Tape gives you limitations that force you to be creative and intentional. You don’t look at the music on a screen; you listen to it\, and you learn to focus on the feeling of the performance.” \n\n\n\nThroughout Heart Is The Hero\, those performances are matched by the visceral storytelling and songwriting chops that have turned The Wood Brothers into Grammy-nominated leaders of American roots music\, even as their music reaches far beyond the genre’s borders. The stripped- down swagger of “Pilgrim” underscores Oliver’s reminder to slow down and experience each moment as an interactive observer\, rather than a passive tourist. A similar theme anchors “Between the Beats\,” where Oliver draws upon a meditation technique — maintaining one’s focus on the space between heartbeats — to reach a new level of presence. The gentle sway of country soul gem “Rollin’ On\,” featuring horns by Matt Glassmeyer and Roy Agee\, expounds on the time- honored tradition of love as the guiding light through darkness\, while ”Mean Man World” finds Chris Wood singing about his responsibilities as a father whose young daughter is poised to inherit an uncertain future. “Line Those Pockets” is a universal call for mercy and understanding over materialism. “Everybody’s just trying to be happy\, so put your money away; line those pockets with grace\,” the band sings in three-part harmony during the song’s chorus\, which emphasizes compassion over cash as the world’s true currency. Together\, these songs offer a snapshot of a spirited\, independent-minded group at the peak of its powers\, always pushing forward and seeking to evolve beyond what’s come before. \n\n\n\n“There’s still acoustic guitar\, upright bass\, and percussion on this album — things people use all the time — but we’re always thinking\, ‘How can we make this sound like us\, but not like something we’ve already done?’” Oliver says. “Sometimes\, the only way to do that is to get weird.” \n\n\n\nThat sense of exploration pumps its way through Heart is the Hero like lifeblood. Arriving on the heels of 2019’s Live at The Fillmore\, 2020’s Kingdom In My Mind\, and Oliver Wood’s solo album Always Smilin’ — all of which were released on Honey Jar Records\, the band’s independent label — Heart is the Hero is bold\, bright\, and singularly creative\, a fully realized collective effort ultimately greater than the sum of its parts. Perhaps that’s to be expected from a group whose willingness to experiment has earned acclaim from Rolling Stone and NPR\, as well as an annual touring schedule of sold-out music halls and theaters on both sides of the Atlantic. Ask The Wood Brothers\, though\, and they’ll tell you to expect the unexpected. \n\n\n\n“We are never satisfied if we are not searching for new musical recipes\,” says Jano Rix\, nodding to the uncharted territory that Heart is the Hero covers. Chris Wood agrees\, adding\, “We are one of those bands that isn’t easily categorized. We know what our strengths are\, but we can’t help but push the envelope\, as well. It’s too much fun.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Cece CoakleyCece Coakley is hitting her stride. In the wake of her debut 2022 EP “Tender\,” the 22-year old singer-songwriter is exploring a world beyond her native Knoxville\, literally and metaphorically. \n\n\n\nFresh off touring with rising acts like Medium Build\, Stephen Sanchez\, Field Guide and Ella Jane\, Coakley has no shortage of new experiences to draw from. “The first EP came out of living at my parents’ house\,” she explains. “Now I’m writing new songs on the road and trying them out live the same night – I’ve grown up so much making this new music.” Splitting her time between Nashville and LA\, Coakley partnered with new collaborators like Andy Seltzer (Maggie Rogers\, Samia) and Jake Munk (Miley Cyrus\, Ethan Tasch) to help her cultivate her ideas without “dimming their light.” \n\n\n\nThroughout her new writing\, Coakley examines life on a larger scale – from missing friends across time zones to the bittersweet feeling of returning home. The old version of Coakley is its own character in her writing\, forcing her to look over her shoulder at the life she grew out of. In the lineage of other crossover artists like Taylor Swift and Kacey Musgraves\, Coakley’s reflections on coming of age feel both universal and intimate\, delivered in soaring pop hooks over beds of jangly acoustics\, banjo and slide guitar. The influence of the country artists she grew up on shines through\, delivering her narrative lyricism with an emotional\, powerhouse voice. \n\n\n\nSince her debut in 2021\, Coakley has cemented herself in the indie landscape\, amassing over 4.9 million Spotify streams to date and nabbing slots at festivals like Bonnaroo and Briston Maroney’s Paradise Festival. Her upcoming sophomore EP deepens Coakley’s journey of self-discovery\, as she continues to strike a chord with her young audience. She may have found her footing\, but this is only the beginning for Cece Coakley.
