The Barlow & The Matt Skinner Band
ONE NIGHT OF COUNTRY MUSIC
The Barlow are; 4-guys, from as unlikely a place as any, to lay down the Country-Rock anthems you’d expect to hear in Austin or Stillwater; Savannah, Raleigh or Mobile. Whatever you do, just don’t call it Nashville! This is Colorado Country! Driven right out of Denver and the rugged Rockies. And that’s significant! It’s heartfelt and relatable.
The Matt Skinner Band formed in the winter of 2012 and released Native Stranger (2013) shortly thereafter which was recorded at the highly acclaimed Stout Studio in Fort Collins, CO. The band consists of Matt Skinner on lead vocals and guitars, Darren Radach on drums and mandolin, Ben O’Connor on electric and upright bass, all rounded out by Ansel Foxley on electric and acoustic dobro. Notable sometime-band members include Joe Lessard on fiddle, Michael O’Connor on lead guitar, and Amanda Hofer on backup and lead vocals.
Big Richard with 10 Cent Stranger
Big Richard: Since exploding onto the Colorado scene in 2021, the four women of the supergroup Big Richard have been on a wild ride. Although they showed up to their first gig armed with homemade puff paint t-shirts, a load of crass jokes, and all dressed intentionally like Stevie Nicks, from the first few notes of their tight vocal harmonies, dazzling string virtuosity, and clever arrangements, no one had any choice but to take them seriously.
10 Cent Stranger: A band by summer, talented social club in the winter - draws inspiration from the sounds and stories of their windswept, high-plains home in Laramie, Wyoming. The storytelling foundation of each song is adorned with powerful harmonies, expressive musicianship, and creative arrangements. This band brings a contagious joy to each performance, and their melodies will stay with you long after the show is over. Since their first shows in early 2016, Ten Cent Stranger has shared the stage with artists such as Joan Osborne, Yonder Mountain String Band, and Asleep at the Wheel. The musicians of Ten Cent are veterans of stagecraft, collectively performing in more than fifteen different projects before joining forces to bring their unique brand of Americana to venues and festivals around the mountain west.
Doors: 7 pm
Show: 8 pm

That September, they released their debut eponymous album to acclaim and adoration.
