Red White and Blues Celebration 2018
The Telluride Mountain Village Owners Association (TMVOA) is pleased to announce the lineup and events for the 2018 Red, White and Blues Celebration taking place July 3 and 4, 2018 at Sunset Plaza, on the lawn near Lift 1 and at Heritage Plaza near the base of Lift 4 in Mountain Village. The annual Red, White and Blues Celebration, traditionally held on July 3, will expand to two days with the addition of July 4. The two-day event is set in the panoramic San Juan Mountains in Mountain Village offering music, children's events, merchant discounts, food and drink specials, and much more.
“What a treat for the Mountain Village Community and surrounding residents to get two days of fun and quality music that is free! And stayed tuned for the announcement of the 20th Anniversary of the Sunset Concert Series in May. More fun and free music to come!” said Teddy Errico, Producer of the music series.
Along with the music, each day will feature children’s activities and entertainment from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. The Red, White and Blues Celebration Concert will kick off with Gospel and Blues singer Paul Thorn whose songwriting often combines wry or humorous observations with blues, country and rock. With onstage banter that bears an uncanny resemblance to the late Mitch Hedberg, Thorn's live shows are must-see and his albums, over a dozen since 1997, are full of gems. Starting off the show will be Boulder, Colorado’s Foxfeather, featuring an Alt-Americana sound bolstered by strong blues-rock. On July 4, talented Trombonist and New Orleans native, Glen David Andrews, brings his funk, soul, gospel and rock sound with a powerful new project that correlates his own reclaimed life to his reclaimed city of New Orleans. Rounding out the day of music will be Dave Jordan and the NIA, also from New Orleans and Telluride’s own Porch Couch.
“TMVOA is excited to expand our mainstay Red, White & Blues event from one to two days with more music, events and kids activities in Mountain Village,” said Heidi Stenhammer, TMVOA Operations Manager. “We look forward to having our members, guests and visitors attend this entertaining holiday event.”
The Red, White & Blues Celebration is provided to the public free of charge by TMVOA and The Telluride Society for Music. This event along with the Sunset Concert Series is sponsored by Alpine Bank, Madeline Hotel and Residences, Rodney Strong Vineyards, KOTO FM Radio, Telluride Resort Lodging, Telluride Ski & Golf, the Town of Mountain Village, The Peaks Resort & Spa, Telluride Express, and The Market at Mountain Village.
