By Reillot Weston – Mid-January has turned into a hot spot downtown! The Basin Park Hotel hosts the Ozark Mountain Music Festival featuring wonderful musical acts from all sorts of places. Things kick off Thursday with The Schwag, a Grateful Dead cover band with 20 years together, sometimes local acts Sad Daddy and Ponder the Albatross, a Saturday night headline show by Horseshoes and Hand Grenades, and a great Sunday brunch show at noon featuring Rozenbridge.
