Though the Show Room at the ZACC is intended primarily for local artists, Baumann said plans to book out-of-town artists are in the works, with the ultimate goal to uplift the venue. “The ZACC is such a great space for creating like an epicenter for a scene, and there's so many different bands, and they all just kind of make sense together here,” Baumann said. Two local bands will play: New Old Future, described as indie rock, and Aggressive Pedestrian, described as garage punk. Throughout the pandemic, the venue hosted virtual concerts to keep performances going, but Friday marks the return of a live audience in the Show Room. “The really great thing is that we have been in contact with a lot of the bands through the pandemic by doing the Social Distance Sessions and a lot of those bands are the ones that we reached out to first when we were starting to book, but really it's just kind of coming, which is great,' Baumann explained. It also features a return of live music Friday night at the Show Room.Ĭhristopher Baumann, ZACC Event Technician, Recording Engineer, and 'local music liaison,' told MTN News musicians are eager to get back to playing for live audiences. “We love bikes, we love music, we love gathering and helping people and getting people's help, so we're just blessed to be in Missoula and have the support of the whole community,” Giordano said.Ĭommunity support is mirrored at The Zootown Arts Community Center (ZACC).

Giordano said Free Cycles did not plan to hold live shows so soon but saw a positive trend with other places safely returning to normal - and bands are reaching out to perform.
