Mountain Mama Presents is a Whitefish, Montana–based promotion company dedicated to bringing people together through live music. Rooted in the mountains and inspired by community, we focus on producing thoughtfully curated events that celebrate local and regional musicians from across Montana and the Pacific Northwest. From intimate gatherings to high-energy showcases, our goal is to create authentic live music experiences that feel as good as they sound.

At the heart of Mountain Mama Presents is a deep respect for artists, audiences, and the places that connect them. We believe live music is a powerful force for community building, storytelling, and joy—and we work closely with musicians, venues, and local partners to make events that are welcoming, well-produced, and memorable.

Mountain Mama Presents is owned and operated by Kate Preston, a mom of three and a lifelong music lover who has seen hundreds of live shows around the world. Her passion for live music spans genres and scenes, with favorite artists including Goose, Phish, Billy Strings, and the Kitchen Dwellers. That love for improvisation, authenticity, and grassroots music culture shapes everything Mountain Mama Presents creates.
