We are 100 days away from our first show!!!

Time to start thinking about your Montrose Rotary Amphitheater setup. Are you going to bring blankets or chairs? Or are you going to be all natural and sit on the grass?

Just no outside alcohol. We’ll have plenty to drink at the show. See you soon Montrose!

Believe it or not Montrose Summer Music Series is already gearing up for 2025.

We're even more excited that July 4 is the first Friday in July. We are partnering with the City of Montrose to bring the best 4th ever.

So who do you want to see?

Obviously we can't afford bands that have been headliners at Red Rocks or a Telluride show.

But who did you see midday at a festival or an opening act that knocked your socks off.

Let us know as we begin the hunt!

The boys from New Orleans, (or, "Nawlins" as many locals pronounce it), Honey Island Swamp Band, paid a visit to our humble town earlier this month for the final concert of our Summer series, and they brought the heat!

Local favorites Crazy Like a Fox Rock Band - Montrose, CO, opened the show. And, of course, many of you came out to enjoy the cooler evening and the great, free music!

Here are some highlights of the evening's festivies.

Well, we have come to the end of another great summer. We have taken the time to thank all of our partners, sponsors and musicians who made the 2024 Montrose Summer Music Series a great success.

The last, and most important thank you goes to you, the fans. To everyone who attended our shows this year, we are grateful to you for making this season one to remember. We will be looking forward to next season, and will keep you updated throughout the winter as work to produce the 2025 Montrose Summer Music Series is already underway. Live, local music is imperative to this community, and we will continue to keep our shows free for everyone.

Take care of one another, and we’ll see you soon!!!
