If you attended the Feb. 9 concert by the Jalan Crossland Band at Terry Bison Ranch, you know that Alicia Padilla knows how to put on a show. A great time was had by all on a snowy winter night. Alicia's Wagon Ruts Productions is staging another show at the ranch on April 6. She sent this info:
On April 6, we're having a Bluegrass Hootenanny featuring the Hillbenders with very special guests:
Blue Grama -- the massively talented, 6-piece ensemble from Northern Colorado. Blue Grama draws from their Bluegrass heritage and breathes joy, fresh life and excitement into their amazing, rich melodies.
Wyoming's finest, BeatGrass. BeatGrass's diverse sound is an unprecedented coalescence between BlueGrass and innovative originals, jazz standards, Motown classics and covers of some of the more newfangled hits. Their impactful complexities have been packing the house (and the outdoors) since their formation in 2010 across Wyoming.
PRESENTING: From traditional roots, springs the high-octane, instrumental mastery of the HillBenders. Hailing from Springfield, Missouri, these boys have been tearing up the bluegrass circuit, leaving their audiences reeling. Winners of the Telluride BlueGrass Band Competition in 2009 and taking First in the National Single Microphone Championship in 2010, the HillBenders are a contemporary force to be reckoned with. Their latest album, Can You Hear Me?, is an eclectic, compelling rouse to the senses. The richness of their upbringings in traditional BlueGrass provides a foundation upon which they innovate a unique and unforgettable sound. Each member has a jaw-dropping mastery of their instruments, which will hoist you right out of your chair.
The quintet consists of Nolan Lawrence (Lead-singer/ Mandolinist), cousins Jim Rea and Gary Rea (Guitar and Bass), Mark Cassidy (Banjo), and Chad "Gravy Boat" Graves (Dobro). Their meticulous arrangements ripple into a cascade of improvisational brilliance. Experiencing the bands' skilled harmonies is comparable to drawing a five of a kind Aces, every hand.
TICKETS: $15 Presale, $17 Day of show at the door. $5 for Kids under age 12. Presale tickets available in Cheyenne at Ernie November (217 W. Lincolnway); Colorado presale: Attend one of Blue Grama's March concert dates for purchase. For dates: http://www.bluegramabluegrass.com/shows.html
