They are back! Don’t miss the Bar J Wranglers’ homage to the many local veterans at their patriotic Veteran’s Day show. Some people describe their music as western, while others call it a stand-up comedy show with masterful cowboy music; others call it the best musical experience in the West!
Call it what you want to — the fact remains, The Bar J Wranglers from Jackson Hole, Wyoming, deliver some of the purest harmony, best musicianship and funniest ranch humor ever seen on stage. As soon as the Bar J Wranglers take to the stage, listeners leave behind their busy lives and

The Aaron Ball Band
October 23 – 7:30 pm
Tickets $12 Adults/$7 Students
Country Rock from Idaho and Aukland New Zealand
Don’t miss your chance to hear a local band that is meeting with international success play at the BPAC! The Aaron Ball Band will be performing on October 23.
Idaho musicians Aaron Ball and David Bowman describe their music as “Jason Aldean meets the Foo Fighters with a little Elton John and Billy Joel mixed in.” This eclectic mix of musical influences,
enhanced by their own unique talents, seems to be working quite nicely for the two artists who recently returned from a successful tour in New Zealand and are now on the verge of signing a recording
contract with Peerless Records (of New Zealand) with a tour of the United Kingdom in the works.
Both men, who are from Pocatello, have played in a variety of bands around East Idaho and are now finding success with The Aaron Ball Band.
Tom Rigney and Flambeau
Saturday, October 10, 2015
7:30pm – Tickets $20
Tom Rigney, the fiery, electrifying violinist/composer, joined forces with some of the country’s finest musicians to form Tom Rigney and Flambeau. Rigney, now entering his second decade at the helm of Flambeau, has stepped into the spotlight with a vengeance.
He showcases his passionate, virtuoso fiddling, his commanding stage presence, his range, depth, and originality as a composer, and of course, those notorious red boots. His bandmates are veterans of the great bands of Charles Brown, Queen Ida,
Clifton Chenier, and others. Tom Rigney is a true American original and his great band, Flambeau, is one of the hottest bands on the American Roots music scene. This is a group you have to hear!

Voice Male
Friday, October 9, 2015
7:30 pm – Doors Open 7:00 pm
Tickets: $10
Voice Male is comprised of 6 unique individuals who somehow found each other over 18 years ago. John Luthy came up with the Voice Male concept while singing with some of the guys in the Logan LDS
Institute Choir. Initially it took nine of them to cover all the parts, but a couple of years later they decided they no longer needed the nose flute player, the cowbell ringer, and the guy who claps,
so they trimmed themselves down to just 6. Actually, some members had to move on and be grown-ups, so they decided to give it a go with just 6.
Over the years, they have had some pretty cool
opportunities to sing in exotic locations (San Pete County) and for some pretty great people (their moms). Considering this is not their day job, they are lucky to pull together and accomplish
anything at this point. They all graduated into careers ranging from Computer Networking (Nerd) to Real Estate to Law. When they are not working or singing, they are enjoying time with their
supportive wives and children. The latest tally: 23 children who like to call each other Voice Male Cousins. As families grow, hair thins, and hips break, they hope to keep chuggin’ along.
As long as you’ll keep listening, they’ll keep singing.
Gary Morris
Saturday, September 26, 2015
7:30 pm – Doors Open 7:00 pm
Tickets: $25 Rows A-K / $20 Rows L-Z
The voice of country singing legend Gary Morris never fails to awaken a listener’s heart and soul. In 2011 Morris played in the Blackfoot Performing Arts Center to an enthusiastic audience.
The BPAC is again privileged to have Gary Morris return to the BPAC stage on Saturday, September 26 at 7:30 pm. Tickets are available for $20 – $25 and can be purchased online at blackfootpac.com,
by calling the BPAC at 208-317-5508, or at the Music and Families store in Blackfoot.
Morris charted a string of hit songs throughout the 1980’s and is probably best known for his original recording of “Wind Beneath My Wings,” which won both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music
Song of the Year Awards.
His career in country music began in the early 1980’s when Morris produced twelve albums that generated sixteen Top 10 singles and five No. 1 hits, including “Baby Bye Bye,” “100% Chance Of Rain,”
“Leave Me Lonely,” and “Headed for a Heartache.”
At the height of his Nashville recording career, Morris boldly opted to become a more versatile singer, as he took the lead role in the production of Puccini’s opera La Boheme. He later accepted the heroic lead role
of Jean Valjean in Les Miserables, on Broadway where he received resounding critical praise and enjoyed the success of his platinum selling record Bring Him Home.
