10 YEARS GONE started 14 years ago as a father son quartet. Revised over the years they added a keyboard player and started to play pop and alternative dance tunes. They are a local Helena favorite that plays live shows about 2-3 times a month in breweries, bars, music festivals and weddings. They are a high energy and multilevel talent on their instruments, playing mostly funk, classic rock, pop hits, 90s rock, and county. They play songs for any age and any taste in music, always what the crowd enjoys. The Ten Years Gone name came from a Led Zepplin song. They pride themselves in 4- and 5-part harmony singing and take their instruments to the next level of precision. Must see to appreciate. Voted Best of Helena Best Local Band 9 years running.
