About the event
“In 1996, I was a young artist. I graduated college, got married and moved from Iowa to remote Northwest Montana. Finding work was difficult. To make ends meet, I took a job painting signs. When I wasn't holding a brush, I began teaching myself how to write songs and play guitar beside the clear, rolling rivers in the Rocky Mountain shadows. Thus began my lifelong endeavor to be a folksinger.” - Chad Elliott
Nearly 30 years have passed since those first songs sprang to life. Now, Midwest singer-songwriter Chad Elliott blends folk roots, swampy blues and soulful writing to deliver music that is unmistakably original. His live performances have been honed over 25 years on the road performing more than 200 shows each year.
