The Butte Parks & Trails Foundation definitely deserves a pat on the back.  Lunch in the Park resumed late Wednesday morning with a full street of food trucks, a park full of hungry music lovers and a fantastic acoustic show by this week's headliner, Cruz Contreras on the main stage/gazebo.  And despite some rainclouds on the horizon, it turned out to be a great afternoon with some fantastic music, delicious food and plenty of stuff for the kids.

Lunch in the Park was helped out today with some very warm weather which was immensely enjoyed by the many youngsters in attendance who got to run around in the ever-popular Foam Machine which has been known to pop up from time to time, especially on hot days, and there were many other activities in the kids' area.

This week's selection of food trucks was a good one as attendees had a selection of everything from tacos and burritos to burgers, berry bowls and even artisan lemonade.

This was the final week of Lunch in the Park per se, as next week will be a special evening event as "Dinner in the Park" will take its place with special hours, running from 6 to 8pm.  Again, plenty of food vendors, kids activities, room for blankets and more will be available as the Butte Symphony takes next week's stage.

Country Artists Who Are Unrecognizable Without Their Signature Looks

While country artists are most known for their music and the lyrics they write, there are a few who you could pick out of a lineup based on their silhouette. In other words, there are several artist who are known for their sense of style just as much as they are known for their songs.

Take for instance, Lainey Wilson's bell bottoms. Her vintage western look is not only becoming on her, but it's also by design. Her one-of-a-kind style was born out of a need to stand out from the crowd and now it's become a part of who she is.

For others artists, their signature look may be a ball cap or sunglasses. These items are so engrained with an artist that it's almost uncomfortable to see them without them. But we went there anyway.

Keep scrolling to see some of your favorite country artists without their signature looks.
