POLEBRIDGE — The Home Ranch Bottoms in Polebridge, announced summer season music events at their beer garden stage. They will be serving breakfast and have expanded camping options for 2024. Memorial Day weekend, Paul Lee Kupfer will take the beer garden stage for a few nights, strumming his undeniable ask for you to “Shake It” to kick off the beginning of the North Fork summer events. Surrounded by the beauty of the North Fork Valley. The public is invited, and no vehicle reservations are needed to access their location at 8950 North Fork Road.
Paul Lee has shared the stage with Watchhouse (Mandolin Orange), The Carolina Chocolate Drops, Taj Mahal, Shovels & Rope, Truth & Salvage Co., Sarah Jarosz, Pokey Lafarge, The Emmitt Nershi Band, Los Lonely Boys and many more talented performers. He has played at The Kauai Folk Festival, Red Ants Pants Festival, and the Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion, Farm Block Festival, Lava Hot Springs Folk Festival, as well as theaters, bars, venues, haunts, dives, and all places in between. Home Ranch Bottoms is honored to welcome him back to their neck of the woods.
On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, June 4, 5 and 6, at 6 p.m. Chris Acker will perform on the Home Ranch Bottoms’ beer garden stage. In a genre full of tall tales and marketable lies, Chris Acker crafts candid songs – weaving his wit and woes into a body of work that exposes the stale plight of the American Songster to the honest, and sometimes hilarious, light of day.
A New Orleans based country-folk songsmith, he will share his collection of songs brimming with true tales, eloquent songwriting and fearless honesty. His third and latest record, “Odd, Ordinary & Otherwise,” flows gracefully from introspective, quiet tunes worthy of the modern folk music cannon to downright barn burners ready for any dancehall and all the space in between.
The tiny community of Polebridge sits on the North Fork of the Flathead River about 22 miles south of the Canadian border and on the western boundary of Glacier National Park. Most visitors arrive by one of two routes.
From Highway 2 in Columbia Falls, turn north onto Nucleus Drive which becomes North Fork Road. It’s a 35-mile drive down a mostly dirt road to a right turn on Polebridge Loop.
