Music nourishes us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It also invites us to come together under the same roof and in a shared moment.

Movement * Yoga with Jessica Cartwright
Sunday, August 4th * 10:45 AM
Cypress Point Stage

Jessica Cartwright aims for every yoga class to feel like a mini retreat. It should be a chance to drop into your body and feel at home there. Through breath awareness, movement, grounding exercises, (and remembering not to take ourselves or our practice too seriously), we can begin to let go of pent up stress and melt into ease. It’s a chance to move from living constantly outside in, to inside out. It’s a chance for the ancient wisdom of these poses to meet your body exactly where it’s at.

Jessica, owner of Jessica Energy, helps people to build a new sense of home within, through retreats, private yoga, energy healing, workshops and cacao ceremonies. She is a doula and Ayurvedic specialist and mother to eight-year-old daughter Bella. She offers small group, immersive retreats in and around Bozeman, as well as internationally in Guatemala, Patagonia, and beyond!

Ken Yates * London, Ontario, Canada
SATURDAY 2:00 PM * THE BOWL

Ontario-born indie-folk songwriter and artist Ken Yates, with three albums under his belt, spent the past decade establishing himself as a talented folk artist with a penchant for thoughtful lyrics and evocative melodies. He won two Canadian Folk Music Awards in 2017, and supported Passenger on both the European and North American legs of his recent tour.

Yates has a penchant for saying what the rest of us are thinking. 𝘾𝙚𝙧𝙪𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙣, his latest album, finds Yates at his darkest and most vulnerable—“the worst pain comes with no bleeding” he writes—as he explores the complicated reality of navigating the world through half-clenched teeth.

Yates’ “earworms of sadness” have gained him a new legion of fans who, drawn to his “stunning candidness and relatability” (𝙉𝙤 𝘿𝙚𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣), have shared numerous fan covers on social media and helped spur a dedicated surge of audience growth.

Left on Tenth • Portland, OR, by way of Bozeman, MT
SATURDAY 12:00 PM • THE BOWL

Left On Tenth is a 5-piece indie-rock band based out of Portland, Oregon, but originally from Bozeman. Their catalog ranges from distorted rock ballads, to horn-driven Latin grooves, to up-tempo ska tunes, to folky feel-good songs. From pants-down horn solos to crowd antics, Left on Tenth will leave you dancing, smiling, or at least with an earworm. The main goal of their show is to have the most fun possible.

Left on Tenth began as a group of friends playing music together on 10th Ave. in Bozeman in 2016. They share a passion for playing live music and creating a fun, enjoyable atmosphere. Their music manifests itself into a variety of genres from funky groves, to hard driving rock, to reggae inspired tunes, to slower sensual ballads. Since nothing is off the table every Left on Tenth show is a little different, but always guaranteed to be a blast for those in the crowd as well as on the stage.
