More about the show:

All ages are welcome,

About Motorhome: Motorhome features a twin guitar attack, layered synths and vocal harmonies in service of a sound that is at once modern and that fits nicely between early 90's grunge and mid 90's indie ROCK. The Missoula quintet has developed a tour de force. The band has an album's worth of material ready to record. Many of these songs will be played Saturday. Motorhome is also made up of many community and mental health professionals and it is wonderful they are helping Free Cycles.

About No Fancy: As the band No Fancy, Missoula, MT indie rockers Jordan Meyer-Morey, James Riach (Catamount), and Brady Schwertfeger (Norwell) know that the recipe for tasteful basement rock comes right from their own name. With the help of session drummer Jon Filkins (The Skurfs, Arrowleaf) and live drummer Tyler Duncan (Wilma Laverne Miner), the group follows up an impressive 2016 debut album, a stellar 2017 single, and an “adult hiatus” with a driving, catchy new three-song EP, Terrible Things. Fans of Lucy Dacus, Soccer Mommy, Snail Mail, and other indie heroes will recognize the sound of distortion and chorus fostered from the outset with a millennial maturity, and a commitment to direct delivery that knows its purpose—simple is better.

More about social gathering and Free Cycles programs:

Music and social gatherings can be important for healthy community.
Community spaces are vital, especially for the mental health of the community.

Gatherings also bring people into the community bicycle shop and introduce people to the Free Cycles services, like 'Build a Bike' and 'Open Shop'.

Any one can build a free bike after doing 90 minutes of service, and we assist in the whole process. For bikes for kids 10 years of age and younger, no service is required.  Open Shop provides space, tools and help for any one to come fix their own bike for free.  These are donation based services.

Thank you! Sincerely, The Free Cycles team
