Please join us for our bonus off-shoot of Music in the Mountains, Metal in the Mountains on September 12th at Len Hill Park (285 Simkins Drive, Big Sky, MT) from 6 - 10pm. This event is Free for all ages! The first Metal in the Mountains debuted last year and was a huge success! Metal in the Mountains is back this year with local legends Scavenger opening for none other than Metallica Tribute band Blistered Earth.

Blistered Earth
Formed in December of 2009, Blistered Earth is the best Metallica tribute band on the planet (we checked!). Playing classic songs ranging from 1983’s “Kill Em’ All”, to 1991’s self-titled “Metallica” this tribute pays it’s respects to one of the greatest heavy metal bands of all time with the raw energy, showmanship, look and song selections that die-hard Metallica fans want to see and hear, they are the ultimate tribute to Metallica.

Emerging Artist Scavenger
Over 10 years ago Scavenger played their first show at the Broken Spoke Bar in Big Sky. The riff-heavy metal band has played more than 150 shows since then at venues around Montana and beyond, showcasing their original material. Their first album, Cliff Manor, was released in 2018, and the quartet released their second album Feral last year. The band members—which include Timmy Bowers on drums/vocals, Ben Blodgett on bass/vocals, Joey Mathis on guitar, and Brent Philippi on guitar/vocals—have been part of the Big Sky community for decades.
