Born from the ashes of Writ Large, Owl the Conqueror is a groovy, bluesy, progressive grunge band. Driving rhythms and powerful guitars.
Formed in 2022, and based out of Missoula MT, wearing their influences and hearts on their sleeves, strides Turtle Tuesday. Your new favorite local band. Meeting and forged in the blazing hot fires of heartbreak, raising reptiles, and playing 20+ year old video games. This electric and exciting DIY basement/garage punk/emo/folk/whatever group is hard focused on delivering you the best possible sounding method of receiving tinnitus. They’ll have you fumbling over your words when asked by your friends as to what genre they play, before you inevitably retire the effort and answer “uhh, rock”. Featuring frontman Kage, drummer Griffin, guitarist Collin and John on bass, expect electrifying performances with tracks whose lyrics detail a splendid range of topics. From whaling about death, to finding happiness, to the woes of public transportation infrastructure. Keep an eye out for their upcoming performances and debut project on the horizon. And in the meantime, they’d love for you to swing by the Hellgate Elk’s Club on Tuesdays to play Super Smash Bros Melee for the Nintendo Gamecube.
Donkey Okay – With a silver moon just so, hanging low above the languid canyon walls, cacti shadow dancers stretch out across a scrub brush sea. A cricket stirs in anticipation. In the distance a desert hare thrums across the sandstone mesa: a bass note, burrowing owls chirp low: a tuning orchestra. Then comes the wind’s rising chorus, shifting sands through arroyo halls. A kind of peace, a subtle song, broken at once by the Donkey’s bray.
