Next Concert: Saturday, April 20, 2013 Rapidgrass Quintet with Sarah Morris AND Credibility Gap

Doors open at 7:00 PM concert starts at 7:30 PM.
Rapidgrass Quintet with Sarah Morris-
Borrowing the name from his enormously successful summer bluegrass festival in Idaho Springs, Mark Morris has made official his collection of carefully-assembled talent. Rapidgrass Quintet features the hot fiddle licks of Texas champion Coleman Smith and they will knock your socks off. The band has spent time in the studio recently and will have a new CD to release. Fans of Mark know to expect a monster show. They will show you why they are the host band to one of the hottest new festivals around. The pickin’ and singin' will astound.
Credibility Gap- with one current and one former Idaho Springs resident- will open this evening of great bluegrass from musicians with local connections. Featuring original tunes from several band members, as well as a few of the band’s favorites, this group will show you why they love to get together at Max’s house every Tuesday for well into their third decade. Last year’s addition of Kellie McGee on fiddle makes six pieces, and the band has enjoyed working in some new musical territories. Expect a few chuckles from the band’s twisted sense of humor while they share their love for home-grown bluegrass with you.
This is the kind of show tailor-made for our wonderful venue- let’s pack the place.
Tickets are $20.00 at the door - purchase discount tickets at Java Mountain Roasters, Two Brother's Deli, in Idaho Springs, and Tomay Memorial Library in Georgetown.

Friday July 19, 2013 Greg Trooper

Doors open at 7:00 PM concert starts at 7:30 PM.
Greg is a gifted singer-songwriter who feels equally informed by Memphis soul, Greenwich Village folk, and Nashville twang. Steve Earle says “Greg writes great songs, including one of my very favorite songs in the world, Little Sister. On top of all that, there’s his voice- an instrument I have coveted for 15 years.” His songs have been recorded by a wide variety of popular artists. He will be in his favorite element this night- solo in front of a great United Center crowd.
