Viva Mexicana!
Hey ya’ll…Get yo’ mexican fix these next two nights at Sawtooth Hotel.Mexican Food Nights
July you’re a woman…more than anyone that I’ve ever known…
Now y’all know that, as a soul goat in the Sawtooth mountains, it’s the music in my head that keeps me focused. And whoever wrote these words that keep ringin’ in my goat head, must’ve known a little about summer in the mountains. ‘Cause July in the Sawtooths is here, folks, and just like a woman, it is full of all kinds of excitement. The river-runnin’, bikin’, hikin’ and relaxin’ are in full effect. Not to mention the happenin’s in the old town of Stanley. Live music, good food and drink, and mountain town vibe abide. Sawtooth Hotel, with the sweetest views of the ‘Tooths, has all this and more. Come stop in a see…And July keeps getting better and better….
Ain’t nothin’ like mountain music to chase the snow away….
Hey now now..
Springin’ into summer has been a slow process in the Sawtooths this year, but have no fear…when she comes, she come in like a mountain lion.
Yeah, the rivers are ragin’, the flowers are bloomin’ and the livin’s easy. But for a goat, to really chase the winter’s blues away, I need mountain music.
You know the kind, of pickin’ and grinnin’ that happens and gits yo’ feet stompin’ and hands slappin’ and makes you wanna whirl and twirl like a dervish… Well it’s happenin’ at the Sawtooth Hotel this summer…Startin’ this Friday, June 24.
Here’s the lineup.
Friday, June 24 Dewey, Pickette, & Howe – Frontman and local legend Dave Muscavage heads this four-piece bluegrass band. They define mountain music in this Idaho neighborhood. You can’t help but movin’ and stompin’ yo feet when these boys get a pickin’ an’ strummin’.
Saturday, July 2 Hokum Hi-Flyers – Boise’s famous old-time roots music band takes the stage in front of the Sawtooth backdrop for a return to an incredible winter performance. Scott Knickerbocker on banjo, guitar, vocals. Dave Daley on fiddle, vocals. Jonah Shue on fiddle, guitar, mandolin, vocals. Gary Shue on guitar and moandolin. Patrick Herren on harmonica.
