On Broadway, the live music venue at 106 East Broadway, has a full slate of acts lined up for Helena audiences this fall, with three distinct acts giving locals a range of sounds to choose from over coming weekends.
Leading the lineup is The Peripherals, described as Helena's premier cool jazz combo. The group draws from the classic jazz canon — Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald — while also working in original compositions. For Helena listeners who don't often get a chance to hear live jazz executed at that level without driving to Missoula or Bozeman, The Peripherals fill a real gap.
Also coming to On Broadway is Tae & The Neighborly, a Wisconsin-based soul-pop R&B group with an origin story that's genuinely hard to make up. The five members met as neighbors in a five-story apartment building during the pandemic, bonded over a shared obsession with baking, and gradually turned flour-borrowing visits into a full band. They play a warm, groove-forward sound rooted in soul and R&B.
Rounding out the announced acts is Dan Henry, a one-man show that punches well above its headcount. Henry plays harmonica, rhythm guitar, and a stomp box simultaneously, pulling from a wide catalog that runs from Chris Stapleton to John Prine to Fleetwood Mac. Specific dates for each act were not listed in the available event data, so residents should check On Broadway's schedule directly for showtimes.
