Food and beverage vendors will be available. Please remember that NO DOGSNO GLASS CONTAINERS, and most importantly, NO PERSONAL FIREWORKS are allowed in the park. The park opens at 6 p.m., with music starting from emerging artist Gilda House at 6:30 p.m. Cool Cool Cool takes the stage at 8 p.m.

Tonight’s Headlining Band
Cool Cool Cool

Cool Cool Cool blends the best of Funk, House and R&B to create a sound that is truly unique. With dynamic female-led vocals, a tight horn section, swirling synths and a rhythm section that lays down a wicked groove, this band knows how to deliver an electrifying performance. When you see Cool Cool Cool in person, you'll be swept up by the energy of their music and unforgettable live show. 

After spending more than a decade traveling the world together with the touring act Turkuaz, the members of Cool Cool Cool decided to team up and form their own band in 2022. Their shared experiences, from playing dive bars to international festival stages, helped them develop a close bond that goes far beyond music. In Cool Cool Cool, this bond translates into a powerful synergy that allows each band member to showcase their individual talents, creativity, and passion. 

Cool Cool Cool has been touring the U.S. in 2024 both as a headlining act, as well as the supporting band for Talking Heads members Jerry Harrison and Adrian Belew (David Bowie, King Crimson) on their "Remain In Light" tour.

Tonight’s Emerging Artist
Gilda House

Coming off a solid year of playing live shows, 2024 finds Gilda House feeling at home back in the studio. “Anam Cara” - the first single slated for this year, is set to release on Friday April 5th. True to form, the song remains emotive, punchy, and enthralling, weaving the band’s signature sonic & safe embrace for everyone present to lean in, dance, and confront different aspects of self and community. The indie-pop trio from Billings, MT consistently levels up with each release.

The live band includes Meg Gildehaus (lyrics, lead vocals, and bass synth), Tony Morales (guitar, keys, and backup vocals), and Nick Miles (drums and lighting design). In addition to the trio, Sean Lynch manages, joins in the recording process, and mixes the band's live shows. All contribute to the writing. Having led other bands themselves, each member brings their own unique skill-set, hard work, and a humble attitude to the project. It’s a motivating, creative environment and their best work is just beginning to come to fruition.

This show is sponsored by Montage Big Sky. Thank you for your support!
