Brought to you by LANDER PRESENTS in Lander City Park 405 Fremont Street, Lander

LANDER PRESENTS
In 2015 a group of music lovers gathered around the bar and dreamt of manifesting a summer music series. “Could we actually draw the caliber of musicians we so desire to this little strip of high desert, mountain town in western Wyoming? Yep.” SUPPORT their work HERE.
6:00PM - 7:00pm |BOOT GUN | lander presents live music
7:30:00PM - 9:30pm |ILLITERATE LIGHT | lander presents live music
“Illiterate Light thrives on subverting expectations. Though just a duo, singer-guitarist Jeff Gorman and drummer Jake Cochran make surprisingly pummeling and catchy alternative rock. Since the band’s 2015 inception, they’ve intently focused on their unorthodox live show with Cochran standing behind his kit and Gorman playing synth bass with his foot as he sings and strums his guitar. Fiercely egalitarian and independent, the two not only split up songwriting duties and arrangement ideas, they even built bike-powered stages: bringing the fans into the live experience and envisioning a greener future for shows.”
