Home Ranch Bottoms hosts two shows this weekend

Home Ranch Bottoms near Polebridge will welcome John Lowell to the stage along with his duo-mate (and wife) Joanne Gardner on Friday, Sept. 1.

Both are music industry legends in their own right, bringing their talent to the North Fork from Montana’s southern reaches of Paradise Valley.

“When someone’s music is like an old friend and you’ve just met, that’s John Lowell’s gift,” said Bill Payne, legendary keyboardist and founder of Little Feat.

Opening for this act at 6 p.m. will be David Piland, a Flathead singer/songwriter who’s musical journey began in Nashville.

On Saturday, Sept. 2, Home Ranch Bottoms will host the annual USS Coral Navy reunion (and Columbia Falls Veterans Home fundraiser) featuring the Tommy Edwards Band from 6-9 p.m. There will be a silent auction, dinner specials and, of course, a ripping good time on the dance floor.
