The California Honeydrops Announce Return to Missoula & Bozeman in 2026
Retro-soul outfit The California Honeydrops are bringing their Lovin’ Made Easy Tour to Montana in 2026 — performing at The Wilma in Missoula on May 12th and The ELM in Bozeman on Friday, May 15th.
Born out of the subway platforms of Oakland, The California Honeydrops have grown into a festival-favorite live act known for blending retro soul, R&B, funk, and New Orleans–inspired swagger. Led by the charismatic Lech Wierzynski, the band thrives on spontaneity — famously ditching setlists altogether to create shows that are entirely in-the-moment, no two performances ever the same.
Their expansive catalog includes crowd favorites like “When It Was Wrong,” “Live Learn,” and “All Day, All Night,” alongside newer material from their 2025 album Redwood Highway. With more than 200 million streams and appearances at major festivals and iconic stages around the world, The California Honeydrops have built a reputation for turning any room into a dance floor.
If you’re looking for a show that’s equal parts musicianship, joy, and movement, this is it. Grab your tickets early and get ready for a night full of soul and smiling faces!

ABOUT THE CALIFORNIA HONEYDROPS
“The California Honeydrops…evoke the greasy rumble of Booker T and channel the spiritual ecstasy of Sly and the Family Stone.”-Rolling Stone
Formed in the subway systems of Oakland, retro-soul outfit The California Honeydrops are an electrifying group that defy convention at every turn. They’ve become a mainstay at festivals including Byron Bay Bluesfest (Australia), Outside Lands, Monterey Jazz, Lightning In A Bottle, and touring with B.B. King, Dr. John, Bonnie Raitt, Buddy Guy, and Allen Toussaint. Led by the enigmatic and energetic frontman, Lech Wierzynski, and percussionist Benjamin Malament, each member of the band is a virtuoso in their own rite — Yanos “Johnny Bones” Lustig on saxophone, Lorenzo Loera on keyboards/guitar, Beaumont Beaullieu on drums, Miles Blackwell on bass, and regularly accompanied by Oliver Tuttle on trombone, Leon Cotter on saxophone/clarinet, and Miles Lyons on trombone/sousaphone — navigating through a vast repertoire of original songs and timeless classics every night. But what truly sets them apart is their unwavering commitment to the art of improvisation – a skill so finely honed that they have completely abandoned the use of set lists and no two shows are ever the same. Off stage, their music has been streamed more than 200 million times, and placed in a variety of TV and films, including “Dead To Me,” “Alaska Daily,” “Black-ish” and more. Their new album “Redwood Highway” was released August 8, 2025.
