Hi Michael,
Thanks for getting in touch!
So this is due to the fact that the list view is, more specifically, a list of upcoming events. You can definitely change this, but you would need a good understanding of WordPress and PHP to do so, especially if you want to introduce a dropdown month selector.
The entire request is out of the scope of support we can offer here, but you can definitely find snippets in the forum and in our docs relating to topics such as customizing event queries and so on.
Cheers,
Barry
