OK. Although the Pentecostal church he attended multiple times a week continues to influence his music — the opening song on The Very Last Day is titled “Hades Pleads� — he says any of the songs Parker Millsap writes he no longer considers himself religious. Millsap toured for feel older than the man who wrote them years as an acoustic trio, with Daniel Foulks on fiddle and his — timeless, in a way, and unabashedly childhood friend Michael Rose on bass. Percussionist Patrick contemporary in another. Millsap, 23, draws Ryan joining the band in 2015. Millsap, who has received upon blues and country music as much as he praise from the likes of the Wall Street Journal, NPR, Rolling does early rock and roll. He instills depth into his characters Stone and The New York Times, has movie star good looks with uncanny ease, a gift perhaps incubated in the to-theand exudes an effortless likability. And in July, he’ll play three point urgency of the Twitter age. Millsap made a splash with shows in Montana on consecutive nights: the Top Hat in his critically acclaimed self-titled debut album in 2014. And, Missoula July 28, the main stage at Red Ants Pants Music in 2016, his career ignited with the release of The Very Last Festival in White Sulphur Springs July 29, and in the intimate Day, which the Americana Music Association nominated for Live from the Divide studio in album of the year.

SWEET PEA FESTIVAL AUGUST 4-6, 2017 2017 POSTER CONTEST WINNER FIRST PLACE: MICHA ROTT SECOND PLACE: VALERIE CHAI – FAYETTEVILLE, NY THIRD PLACE: OLIVIA ROSE LANGAN – BOZEMAN, MT Growing up in Nebraska, Micah Holle Rott always had a great love for art and animals— especially rabbits. There are many drawings from as young as 4 years old that have bunnies baking, etc. She either wanted to be a veterinarian or an artist and college chemistry confirmed what she already knew in her heart. While her family resided in Lincoln, Nebraska, her father had a dream of a place he referred to as "God's Country"—Montana. They made many vacation trips to Bozeman, where her parents picked out property for "some day."

After she graduated from college and set out to conquer the world in graphic design Micah focused her sites on Bozeman but fell in love and married Jeremy Rott, a Kansas man, and settled there, while her parents, Larry and Rachel Holle, moved to Bozeman permanently. Today, Micah works as a freelance graphic designer and has three children, Silas-15 and twins Corinne and Jonas-12. She still loves animals and illustrating and dreams of one day setting aside time for a children's book. They visit her parents in Bozeman often to be where her son Silas has referred to as "the most perfect place." When asked about her creative process, Micah says she brainstorms, sketches some options until she likes what she sees and then, "COLOR," beams Micah, "It's foundational, so I spend some time creating a color scheme before I execute a design." "Winning the Sweet Pea Festival poster contest, is such a high honor. I've been following this festival for over 20 years," says Micah, "I feel I'm in the company of some wonderful artists." Micah will be in town for the festival and hopes to sign posters on August 4th, 5th and 6th. CONTINUED ON PAGE 6

5 Hot Tips for Summer Pet Care MYPET.COM Summertime is fun time, but hot weather makes for some unique summer pet care challenges. Although wild animals are well adapted to the elements, companion animals can be just as susceptible to extreme temperatures as their owners are. What does that mean for your pet? When the temperatures get extreme, pet safety should be top of mind. Here are 5 ways to stay safe while enjoying summer activities with your pet: 1. Respect the heat. Humans aren't the only animals that can find a hot summer day overwhelming. But unlike you, your pet has a limited ability to deal with the heat. Dogs release heat through their paw pads and by panting, while humans can sweat through all of the skin on their body. Dehydration can be a big problem for pets during the hot weather, too. According to the ASPCA, animals with flat faces— like Pugs and Persian cats— cannot pant as effectively, and are therefore more susceptible to heat stroke. You should also keep an eye on elderly or overweight pets or animals with heart and lung disease. In the summer, make certain that Fido and Fluffy always have access to plenty of fresh, cool water, and avoid letting them run around outside during the hottest parts of the day. 2. Keep bugs away—safely. Another summer pet safety issue is the presence of ticks and other summer insects. Not only can bugs carry diseases, but the ways people try to ward them off can also cause problems for your outdoor pet's health. Fertilizers and pesticides may help keep a lawn looking great, but they can be very dangerous

for your pet. In the areas where your pets play, it's better to keep the grass cut short to reduce the presence of ticks and other insects. Also keep an eye out for fertilizer warnings on neighbors' lawns when walking your dog. Talk to your veterinarian about the best ways to protect your pet from fleas, ticks, and other insects that are more prevalent during the summer months. 3. Beware of antifreeze. In the summertime, antifreeze can leak out of cars when they overheat, leaving puddles on the ground that your dog can easily lap up and swallow. The sweet taste of antifreeze is tempting to dogs and cats, but when this toxic substance is ingested, it's potentially lethal. Pay attention to your neighbors' cars and puddles on your street, and make sure your pets stay clear of it. 4. Find out if your pet needs sunscreen. Some pets, particularly those with short fine hair and pink skin, can be susceptible to sunburn. Talk to your veterinarian about which types of sunscreen are safest on your pet's skin, and follow

up by routinely applying sunscreen as part of your summer routine. Do not use sunscreen or insect repellents that are not designed specifically for use on animals. The ASPCA says ingesting certain sunscreens can cause drooling, vomiting, diarrhea, excessive thirst and lethargy in pets. 5. Practice water safety. As with other aspects of summer pet care, water safety is all about thinking ahead. Although it's fun to bring your pet to the beach or pool to stay cool together, always keep a close eye on your pet when they're in or near the water. Even a strong swimmer could have trouble getting out of a pool, or get trapped by ropes and other obstacles. For more risky summer adventures with your dog, like boating, look into a doggie life preserver. It could prove to be an excellent investment for his safety. Summer pet safety isn't hard, it just requires some thought and attention. Watch over your pet the way you would a small child— protect them from too much heat, sun, and other summer dangers— and everything should be just fine.

MILLSAP CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 between. All this, and you’re only 23. Looking back, how would you describe 2016?

Your playing style is notably expressive. It’s soulful and evocative. Where does that come from?

It was a lot of work, but it made me want to work harder. I had a lot of great opportunities and experiences, and I want to try to keep doing that.

Some of it has to do with playing in church with just me and Michael [Rose], my bass player. I was always trying to fill up the space because there is just so much space when you’re performing as a duo. I learned to use the space by trying to be a drum set and a guitar player and sing. Also, a lot of my favorite musicians are people who are a little sloppy and do it differently every time. Charles Mingus — any band he put together, the way [the musicians] reacted to each other, or like with the Stones and Keith Richards, there are points where you say, “That’s about to fall apart.” And when it comes back together, you say, “That’s genius!” I love that. Lightnin’ Hopkins is like that, too.

Will you put out an album in 2017? It will be early 2018 before the next one comes out. We’ve recorded most of the record, but it won’t be out until next year. Your style ranges from blues to folk, and from Americana to rock and roll and with a little bit of country thrown in there. Who would you pinpoint as your primary musical influences? It changes every day. I’m really into songwriters like Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, John Prine and Shel Silverstein. And I really like blues music. I particularly like Chicago blues and Mississippi John Hurt. I interviewed Justin Townes Earle a few weeks back, and he also lists Hurt as a key influence. Oh, yeah. John Hurt is the man. You put a lot of soul into the way you sing. How does your Pentecostal upbringing play into that, or does it? I think it does. I think it has a lot to do with doing a lot congregational singing when I was growing up in church. That’s the kind of singing where you’re not in front of people but you’re with people. And everybody’s singing for reasons other than selling records — it’s a different context. And doing that so often growing up leaks into my performance. It’s not a conscious thing. But I got used to singing in a setting where people didn’t care what you’re sounding like. Members of the congregation aren’t going to be looking over and be like, “Hey, you’re off time our out of key.” Singing in that setting definitely has something to do with it. The same can be said for the way you play guitar.

You populate your songs with colorful, well-rounded characters. Is that your starting point when you sit down to write? For a decent amount of songs it is. But, I feel like the process, once I start to get a handle on it, it changes on me. Once I figure out the formula, then the formula doesn’t work anymore. So it’s different every time. Sometimes it’s a character idea. Sometimes it’s a chord progression. Sometimes it’s a beat. And sometimes it’s a specific way I yell or make my voice sound and I think, “Ok, I need to work that into a song.” “Heaven Sent” from The Very Last Day is a powerful song about a young gay man trying to reconcile who he is with the religion preached by his father. Did your Pentecostal upbringing help inform that song? Yes, absolutely. I think as much as it’s my own personal Pentecostal upbringing, it’s also just the culture of a small town south of the Mason/Dixon line with a lot of suppression going on. Nothing about that song is necessarily about my personal life — it’s just a story that I wanted to tell. I wouldn’t have written that song if I didn’t grow up in a small town and go to church. I saw you perform it at the Americana Honors and Awards show at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville last year. You brought the room to a hush. Yet the

song itself remains taboo in many circles. That song almost feels like a line of demarcation between Americana Music and Country Music. I know what you’re talking about, and I see what you’re saying. But I don’t think of those lines like that. But, I totally understand. Did you have hesitation about choosing to perform that song in the Ryman, aka the Mother Church of Country Music? No, not really. It felt like the best one to do. I knew everyone else would probably be doing some louder and faster songs, and I felt like that’s probably anthemic tune on the record so I felt like doing it in that room — not necessarily because of the subject matter, but because of the sonics. That room has a really beautiful bouquet that works really great with those kinds of ballads. What did your girlfriend think of that song? She loves it. It’s probably her favorite song that I’ve written. You’ll be playing “Live from the Divide” in Bozeman in July. Have you been to Montana before? Oh, yeah. We’ve been to Missoula multiple times, and Great Falls. This will be our first time in Bozeman. Guitar is your primary instrument. Did you know Guitar Player magazine rated Music Villa in Bozeman as one of the Top 10 guitar stores in the country? I’ve actually watched about 1,000 of their guitar reviews on the Internet [YouTube channel titled “The Acoustic Letter”]. I really love it. I had forgotten that store is in Bozeman, so thank you for reminding me. I’m excited to check it out. Skip Anderson relocated to Bozeman from Nashville a year ago, where in 2015 and 2016 he was recognized as Music Writer of the Year in the Nashville Scene’s Readers’ Poll. He also won the Alternative Newsweeklies’ Best Music Writing award in 2015.

PETS ARE P E O P L E TO O

Beaverhead’s no-kill shelter has lots of puppies, kittens ready for adoption

BY SKIP ANDERSON

counterparts, which, in part, explains why there are so many healthy, older animals with a lot of love left to give and receive. Those, Brown says, sometimes come to live with her in her nearby home.

usie Brown says that when she and her late husband launched their no-kill animal shelter in Dillon, MT, in 1997, she couldn’t have imagined 20 years later it would have 200 cats and around 50 dogs waiting to be adopted. Not to mention the occasional snake, pig or frog.

S

“They’re just so loving,” she says. Although the vast majority of animals at the shelter are dogs or cats, Brown says they’ll take in any pet that a person needs to place with a new owner.

“If you would have told me when we started this that I would have this many animals, I’d have told you you’re crazy,” Brown tells The Monthly. The animals are available to take home for a modest adoption fee of $95 for dogs and puppies, and $50 for cats and kittens. Each pet has been spayed or neutered, and comes with vaccinations up to date. The shelter charges the same adoption fee regardless of an animal’s lineage, including a litter of pure-bred German Shepherd puppies that will be available to adopt around mid July. “We also have four itsy, bitsy, teeny terrier puppies that will be ready to adopt in late July,” Brown says. “As well as boxer puppies that are ready right now.” Puppies and kittens are typically adopted more quickly than their older

“Over the years, we’ve had quite a variety,” Brown says. “We’ve had tarantulas and walking-stick insects. We’ve had snakes, including a 120-pound boa constrictor that we drove him all the way to a reptile garden in Rapid City, SD. I was happy to have him over there, because he was big.” Brown stressed that the shelter is not equipped to take in livestock. “Whatever comes, we don’t turn anybody away,” Brown said. “If it is your pet — not livestock — I will help you with that.” One of the more memorable animals to pass through the shelter was a

ach and his brother Cramer are available for adoption at the Beaverhead animal shelter in Dillon MT. They have been there since August 2016. They are so sweet but are very attached to each other and must go together to a new home. I really think two dogs are better than one because dogs get lonely. Humans go to work,dinner and out without their dogs some time being left alone. Please consider Zac and Cramer. So many choices in Dillon Montana to choose from. Big dogs, med size dogs and of course, small dogs. Don't forget the cats too! Most shelters are over flowing with cats and kittens.
