Kitchen Dwellers set another two-night ELM stand, with AJ Lee & Blue Summit

A year after their January homecoming, Montana's space-grass band returns to The ELM on Feb. 26 and 27, 2027; tickets are on sale now.

Kitchen Dwellers have made The ELM a winter habit. They played two nights there at the end of January, and they have just booked two more for next February.

Kitchen Dwellers play The ELM on Friday, Feb. 26, 2027, with AJ Lee & Blue Summit opening. The show starts at 8 p.m. and tickets run $46.10–$58.65 through Ticketmaster. Friday is night one; the band and AJ Lee & Blue Summit are back on Saturday, Feb. 27, for night two, according to JamBase's announcement of the band's 2027 winter tour on Oct. 20.

The ELM holds 1,100, and it is a room the band knows well. Last winter's run, Jan. 30 and 31, was billed as part of the band's annual Ski Tour, and the Bozeman Daily Chronicle framed it as a homecoming. That is the word that keeps coming up with this band and this town. When Kitchen Dwellers put out *Seven Devils*, their fourth studio album, they threw the album release party in Bozeman.

The band's arc has been from local picking to national touring, as Logjam Presents put it in a profile of the group, and these hometown-ish weekends are where you can see both halves at once: a band now routing winter tours across the country, still treating a Montana room as the centerpiece. Their 2026 spring touring ended with a Missoula finale, so Montana bookends their calendar from both sides of the mountains.

These Bozeman weekends are where you can see both halves of Kitchen Dwellers at once: a national touring band, still treating a Montana room as the centerpiece.

AJ Lee & Blue Summit are a good fit for the bill. Kitchen Dwellers sit on the bluegrass-meets-jamband line, and an opener from the bluegrass side of that line gives both nights a through-line from the first set to the last.

No new album is attached to this run that we could find; *Seven Devils* remains the latest full-length. So expect a set built from that record and the catalog around it, stretched out the way two-night stands invite.

When to buy: tickets are on sale now. The band's own site has the full winter routing. Last year's two nights were a Friday-Saturday at the end of January; this year it's the last weekend in February. Same plan applies. Pick your night, or do both.
