Susan Tedeschi - Thursday, Aug 13 - Steamboat Ski Area
“I think it’s a pivotal record for me – I like this one a lot,” Susan Tedeschi says of her new Verve Forecast release Back to the River. “I think it’s really emotional, but it’s not really a blues record. The blues is still in there, but there’s a lot of other stuff too. I definitely put a lot into this one and worked really hard to put a lot of ideas across.”“the synergy and excitement on this album is so fresh and energizing.” “It is one of the most powerful albums we have ever recorded,” agrees |

Avett Brothers - Thursday, Aug 20 - Steamboat Ski Area
If you put your ear to the street, you can hear the rumble of the world in motion; people going to and from work, to school, to the grocery store. You may even hear the whisper of their living rooms, their conversation, their complaints, and if you're lucky, their laughter. If you're almost anywhere in America , you'll hear something different, something special, something you recognize but haven't heard in a long time. It is the sound of a real celebration. |
