Some say rock is dead, but fans of Matt Axton know that Mountain-Soul-Rock & Roll is alive and kicking. This West Coast-based singer/songwriter and band leader’s music is a powerful mix of classic storytelling and guitar-driven roots-rock resulting in a true modern Americana sound. Axton’s distinct baritone voice, unique finger-picker guitar style and wealth of legacy stories lands perfectly in an intimate listening room or a late-night honky-tonk.

The 406 Winds Quintet
2026-04-14 19:30
Western Strings presents “Around the World in 80 Minutes,” featuring 406 Winds, the faculty woodwind quintet of Montana State University in Bozeman. The concert will take place at First Presbyterian Church, 2025 23rd St. Cody on April 14th at 7:30 PM. The Quintet’s musicians are: Katie Mess, flute, Beth Antonopulos, oboe, Gregory Young, clarinet, Liz Schmidt, horn and Derek Bannasch, bassoon.
The headline work on the concert is the Carl Nielsen Quintet. This brilliant piece, by a prominent Danish composer, feels classical and substantial and is expressed in fresh, new sound colors.
Continuing the voyage, we visit with Oscar Navarro, a Spanish composer born in 1981, for his Juego de Ladrones (Game of Thieves) The musical idiom is accessible, noticeably Spanish at times and contains all sorts of sly and playful details.
We will also hear a new American work by Nicole Chamberlain entitled “Everything is Fine.” Nicole is a flutist as well as a composer and her focus is on the coloristic possibilities of the related but diverse instruments of the woodwind quintet. You will hear sounds and combinations that you might not have previously imagined.
Finally, the Quintet will travel to Japan to play “My Neighbor Totoro,” a suite derived from the eponymous Anime movie.
406 Winds will give demonstration performances and clinics in Cody at the High School on April 14th and at Northwest College on April 15th. Admission is pay what you wish, free will offering. This concert is supported by an alumni grant and mentorship from the New World Symphony BLUE (Build, Learn, Understand, Experiment) program, which empowers the NWS network of artistic entrepreneurs to redefine the future of classical music through inclusive community and equity-focused initiatives.

Jarrod Morris – Live Music
2026-04-17 20:30 - 23:30 | The Colonel Venue & Cigar Lounge, 1328 Beck Ave, Cody, WY
$15 on eventbrite. $18 at the door.
The Texas-based singer-songwriter spent most of his early twenties in isolation, working hard shoeing horses. This lifestyle laid the groundwork and set the stage for him to write hundreds of songs, eventually leading to an opportunity to record his first full album, ‘West of East’. Emphasizing social media marketing, the records and singles achieved immediate success in the Texas country format, laying a strong foundation for the next chapter of his musical journey. Jarrod aims to capture the free, wild spirit of the American Cowboy, with smooth, memorable melodies and gritty vocals that can range from a sensitive, contemplative, lonely late-night drive to a full-on summertime folk-rock revival. Jarrod’s musical influences are wide and it shows, often making formatting and placement difficult. However, this is purposeful. Jarrod believes that the music he is planning to release will appeal to a very broad audience. Fans often use a wide variety of references to describe his style, including Tom Petty, Kacey Musgraves, Ryan Bingham, Sting, John Mellencamp, and Ryan Adams. Jarrod’s musical personality can best be described as an indie sound and old soul with a dedicated modern songwriter’s heart.
