HELL’S BELLES are first and foremost dedicated AC/DC fanatics. This is what we all have in common. We’re all part of a huge community of devotees to one of the greatest rock-n-roll bands in the world. This is who we all are, and this is what HELL’S BELLES strives to deliver with mechanical precision and passionate fury. Endorsed by Angus Young himself (Blender Magazine, 2003), HELL’S BELLES are the closest one can get without actually moving to Australia and joining AC/DC’s road crew. HELL’S BELLES are indeed ALL female, all the way to their rock-n-roll cores, all the time and without exception. Representing for a whole new generation of women that won’t be intimidated, HELL’S BELLES actively encourage our legions of lady fans to stand up and be counted, and collaborate with women musicians and causes as a part of the mission towards rock and roll inclusion. Not some down-your-throat feminism, but a proactive support and action spirit towards the continued march towards balancing of the gender scales. The thousands of shows HELL’S BELLES have played around the world, including Jordan, Singapore, Japan, Canada, and the good ol’ USA (including Alaska), have become legendary nights of epic proportions. Consistently sexy and sold-out shows – there’s not a HELL’S BELLES audience that hasn’t been blown away by the raw power, attention to AC/DC details, and undeniable appeal that these bad ass belles deliver with undying devotion. From the Angus stripping “Bad Boy Boogie” to “Dirty Deeds” to “TNT”, not to mention AC/DC’s landmark hits “Highway to Hell”, “Thunderstruck”, and “Back in Black”. The marathon set lists change to include a fresh variety of classics, but the perfection and passion of the show never dies. It’s an all out rock-n-roll assault that leaves you both satisfied and begging for more. And, more you’ll get as HELL’S BELLES keep conquering new cities, new states, and new countries. They’ll be in your back yard bringing AC/DC in sound and spirit to you with their recording VOL. II, so you can always count on taking a little piece of HELL’S BELLES home with ya. HELL’S BELLES – committed, ferocious, meticulous women rock musicians delivering authentic AC/DC to the unbelievably supportive and wicked awesome fans. All day and all night long, all over the world, pitch perfect AC/ DC delivered with a highly charged vigor. Let there be rock!

Dive into a mesmerizing musical journey with Oceans of Sound, a program that explores the depths of emotion and the vastness of musical expression. This concert features the world premiere of The Places Where We Meet Will Never Be the Same by Missoula composer Bryan Kostors, a thought-provoking new work that reflects on change, memory, and connection. Renowned pianist Gabriela Martinez joins the Missoula Symphony to perform Clara Schumann’s Piano Concerto in A minor, a piece filled with both youthful brilliance and deep romanticism. As Schumann’s only completed orchestral piece, this rarely performed gem offers a unique glimpse into the voice of one of classical music’s most extraordinary female composers. We are honored to bring it to life on stage. We will again collaborate with the Missoula Youth Symphony in a side-by-side performance on Bedřich Smetana’s famous The Moldau. The evening concludes with the famed impressionistic composer, Claude Debussy’s La Mer, a breathtaking orchestral masterpiece that captures the power and mystery of the sea through shimmering waves of sounds and colors. Experience a program that flows between the intimate and the immense, where music, like the ocean, reveals beauty, turbulence, and boundless wonder.
