The National Memorial Day Concert honors our country’s veterans, service men and women and military families. The concert unites the country in remembrance and appreciation of those who gave their lives for our nation and serves those who are grieving, through the mission put forward by Abraham Lincoln in his second inaugural address, “Let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation’s wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan.”

11th & Grant with Eric Funk

The Lucky Valentines THURSDAY, MAY 12 7PM Also 5/14 10:08pm; 5/16 2am

The Lucky Valentines, a Fort Benton, Montana–based trio, use a mix of folk melodic sensibilities, tight harmonies, and a whole lotta love to make sad things beautiful. Their organic, timeless sound emits sadness, joy, and wonder, creating an acoustic adventure centered around the human experience. Jamie and Shaun Carrier, who form the backbone of this trio, are married with several children, and they bring the compassion and empathy necessary to raise a family into these very intimate stories. Jamie and Shaun are joined by Grant Stebbins, a multi-instrumentalist, playing banjo, lap steel, bass, mandolin, and dobro. He says that playing with The Lucky Valentines is a great opportunity to get back to his folk roots. Jamie and Shaun have been making music together for since 2010, and 2020 marks the release of their second studio album. They’ve written upward of sixty songs, played hundreds of live shows together and have been featured on Montana Public Radio’s Musician’s Spotlight, at Austin’s Iconic Hole in the Wall Cafe, and the Red Ants Pants Music Festival. Their poignant sound is personal, direct, and stirring.

Ordeal by Fire In 1910, on the border between Idaho and Montana, the Bitterroot Mountains caught fire, and on August 20 hurricane-force winds blew thousands of separate fires into one gigantic fire. The newly-created Forest Service sent thousands of men to stop it. People died. Burning trains raced for the safety of tunnels, and whole towns disappeared. The fires of 1910 shaped how Americans would view wildland fires and fire protection to this day. Airs 5/1 10am

We’ll also examine a roadside curiosity near the tiny town of Ledger: a massive concrete relic of the Cold War. We’ll share the solemn story of its failed construction. And one of Montana’s iconic churches is in the final phases of a massive restoration project. The St. Ignatius Mission on the Flathead Indian Reservation was built in 1891, and its history includes beautiful art and a painful past.

Jason Momoa narrates the inspiring story and considerable impact of five-time Olympic medalist Duke Kahanamoku. He shattered swimming records and globalized surfing while overcoming racism and a lifetime of personal challenges.

Waterman examines Duke’s experience in 1920s Hollywood and the racial discrimination he faced. Duke was only cast in bit roles— most of them racist stereotypes, and many of which went uncredited.

New Masterpiece Series

Ridley Road on Masterpiece SUNDAYS AT 8PM Also Tue 2am

Summer 1962: London is swinging with new music, hip fashions, and an irresistible hedonistic spirit. It’s also seething with antisemitic violence incited by homegrown neo-Nazis. This riveting four-part drama set in this colorful but tumultuous time on Ridley Road is inspired by true events. “Ridley Road” stars newcomer Agnes O’Casey as Vivien Epstein, a young Jewish hairdresser who fits right into London’s mod scene, while secretly infiltrating the British neoNazi hierarchy on behalf of Jewish antifascists, Rory Kinnear as Colin Jordan, the real-life leader of Britain’s post-World War II Nazi movement, and Tom Varey as Jack, Vivien’s true love.
