Critically acclaimed Montana singer/songwriter and band leader, Madeline Hawthorne displays equal parts grit and charm on her new full length album 'Boots.' Co-produced by Brad Parsons and Fruition’s Tyler Thompson, 'Boots' is a work of profound reflection and self-discovery, reckoning with evolution and independence while facing down the pressures of modern womanhood with unflinching honesty and steadfast resilience. The songs here are bold and ambitious, captured live in the studio, resulting in a raw, rousing collection that blurs the lines between roots, country, and soul as it transforms pain into beauty and doubt into hope.
With past supporting roles to Nathaniel Rateliff, Nikki Bluhm, Kip Moore, Josh Turner, Big Head Todd, Town Mountain and upcoming support for John Craigie, as well as festival plays at Wildlands Festival (MT), Treefort Music Festival (ID), Sawtooth Valley Gathering (ID) and more, Madeline Hawthorne continues to build her fan base through powerful live performances.
With her soul residing in Montana, Bozeman's Amanda Stewart channels a bare bones, stylistically diverse, Americana sound. Characterized by mellifluous vocals, intertwined by a harmonious fusion of sharp and gentle qualities, her lyrics probe towards life’s melancholic and pensive experiences, yet find unbashful moments to amp up and rock out.
Tonight's show is sponsored by Outlaw Real Estate.
