Late July at Uncorked

Summertime and the living is… busy and fun! The Yellowstone River is finally starting to settle, and the boats and rafts are becoming a steady stream on Park Street. Uncorked, Livingston’s only wine bar, is next door to The Gourmet Cellar, a stop for years for patrons looking for cheeses, meats and libations for their river trip. This year, many are delighted to find there is live music outside under the historic Livingston Depot portico.

Once you’re off the river, take a moment to enjoy the architecture, history and fine beer and wine selection at Uncorked. There are food specials each night, including the ever-popular fondue on Saturday evenings. Music always begins at 6 pm and, weather permitting, will be outside for your people watching enjoyment.

The Lucky Valentines

the lucky valentines
The Lucky Valentines are Montana native songwriters Shaun and Jamie Carrier. Their music has been described by fans as “stirring” Americana,  “straight from the heart.” Married on February 14, 2010 they have been playing music for the whole of their life together. Crafting songs rooted in honest, raw emotion and blending sounds from alt-country, rock-n-roll, indie, and folk; they span themes of joy and pain in the face of life’s trials. They borrow inspiration from their own experience, observation, and the beautiful, lonesome landscape and history of north-central Montana. Their 2016 independent release “Lion in the Garden” is a collection of songs that explore betrayal, loss, and joy. They’re delighted to be added to the Red Ants Pants line up this year!
