Description

The live music season at Happy Valley Orchard ends on a high note with Ryan Montbleau on Friday October 28th from 6-8 p.m, presented by Mountain Mac Cider Company. Please bring your friends and family and come and celebrate the season finale of our live music series in the orchard! There will be food available to purchase at food trucks on site. There will also be hard cider, cider donuts, and other goodies available at the farm store. We love your furry friends, however this isn't a dog friendly event. Honesty and vulnerability have been hallmarks of Montbleau’s career since the early 2000’s, when he first began performing around his native Massachusetts. In the years to come, he’d go on to collaborate with artists as diverse as Martin Sexton, Trombone Shorty, Tall Heights, and Galactic, and rack up more than 100 million streams on Spotify alone. Along the way, Montbleau would share bills with stars like Tedeschi Trucks Band, Ani DiFranco, The Wood Brothers, Rodrigo y Gabriela, and Mavis Staples, but it was his ecstatic headline shows—often more than 200 of them a year—that solidified his reputation as a roots rock powerhouse and an inexorable road warrior. NPR’s Mountain Stage compared his “eloquent, soulful songwriting” to Bill Withers and James Taylor, while Relix celebrated his “poetic Americana,” and The Boston Herald raved that “he’s made a career of confident, danceable positivity.”
