Steve Miller Band and Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives - Missoula

Saturday, August 17, 2019 - Saturday, August 17, 2019

Steve Miller has been an enlivening presence on the American music scene for more than half a century. To begin with, he was a mainstay of the San Francisco music scene that upended American culture in the late '60s perfecting a psychedelic blues sound that drew on the deepest sources of American roots music and simultaneously articulated a compelling vision of what music and, indeed, society could be in the years to come. Then, in the '70s, Miller crafted a brand of pure pop that was smart, polished, exciting and irresistible. Hit followed hit: “The Joker,” "Take the Money and Run," "Rock'n Me," "Fly Like an Eagle," and "Jungle Love," among them. In recent years, Miller has fully immersed himself in the blues and its many byways, finding creative outlets for the full panoply of his musical passions. Marty Stuart is a five time Grammy-winner, platinum recording artist, Lifetime Achievement Award recipient from the Americana Music Association, Grand Ole Opry star, country music archivist, photographer, musician, and songwriter. Since starting out singing gospel as a child, Stuart has spent over four decades celebrating American roots music.
