Every time we show up for the first concert of the season at The Bloomery we can’t help but think back to that first post COVID summer of life and regrowth that lead me to finding this shining example of how to celebrate our strongest qualities. The way the vibes, community, and GREAT music come together to create something nothing short of mesmerizing never stops astounding me.


The first concert of the season brought one of our favorite music men traveling the Great State of Wyoming. Shawn Hess blends his wonderful brand of storytelling with a homage to the Wyoming way of life that’s resonated with all of us that call this place home. This time around he brought the whole 500lb Band and thee RADDEST lil tour bus this side of the North Platte. Which side is that? We dunno, it sorta wanders through the area doesn’t it…



The next opportunity to catch a concert at The Bloomery is July 11th for North Fork Crossing, I certainly won’t miss it, if you haven’t gotten out to The Bloomery yet I highly suggest checking it out sooner than later.
Believe in MAGIC, value the effort that’s gone in to creating it. Protect your innocence, wonder, whimsy and pursue joy every day.
Enjoy the photos from the evening!
