Winter Squares - Valentine's Day (plus Needle and Thread album release!)

  • Free Cycles 732 South 1st Street West Missoula, MT, 59801 United States (map)

Join Lake Missoula Old Time and friends for our annual Valentine’s Day Square Dance! Plus a bonus album release party for Needle & Thread. Come for the dance, stay for the local musicians!

Bring yourself, your friends, a partner (or not!) and join us on the Free Cycles dance floor for some old time community square dancing. All dances are taught by a caller. Beginners and dancers young and old are welcome and celebrated. Dancing is to live old time music, brought to you by local musicians: Needle & Thread and friends. Bob Zuellig from Colorado will be calling this dance - if you were at last year’s December dance with Bob, you’ll know this is not a dance to miss!

Do-si-do and swing away an evening with friends and strangers alike and laugh more than you have in years at these lively and community-oriented dances.

$10 suggested donation to support LMOT and future dances and old timey events in our community.

Needle and Thread Album Release!

Needle and Thread, a banjo, guitar, fiddle, and sister-singing duo, is releasing a new album in conjunction with the LMOT Valentine’s Day Square Dance (Feb 14th, 6:30-10, Freecycles, Missoula, MT). This album was created in honor of Kim Lansford, a dear friend of Maddy and Ella. Featuring a blend of traditional and original tunes and songs, the album showcases expressive performances and heartfelt harmonies. You’ll hear beautiful sister vocals, twin fiddles, and unique ballads, all as part of a warm tribute to Kim Lansford.

We hope you’ll join us for a night of celebration!

There will be Needle and Thread merch, CDs, and albums available for purchase, as well as a live performance from the duo.
