Head for the Hills during FIBArk

Yes – I said, Head for the Hills during FIBArk. I’m not suggesting you get out out of town, I’m suggesting you make your way to Riverside Park on Friday June 18th to enjoy a cold New Belgium brew and take in the traditional bluegrass sounds of Head for the Hills.

From the Head for the Hills website – “Rooted in the tradition of bluegrass, the music of Head for the Hills is a vibrant mixture of homegrown compositions, traditional harmonies, and an innovative approach to improvisation. The group’s lyrical nature and songwriting seems to evoke reminiscent feelings of inspiration. In the live setting, Head for the Hills can venture into a myriad of musical styles and sonic landscapes that caters to a boundless array of listeners.

Head for the Hills is just one of a dizzying array of activities planned for the 62nd FIBArk taking place June 17-20 here in downtown Salida.  For a complete rundown of the fun and history of FIBArk check out the official website www.fibark.net.
