High Country Hustle has gained a reputation as a standout Durango string band, known for their dynamic approach to traditional bluegrass.

For this special New Year’s show, founding member Dennon Jones will step in on fiddle alongside Brendan Shafer on banjo, ensuring a night filled with musical magic.
“We’ve nailed that solid balance between traditional bluegrass and exploratory jam,” Hank noted, emphasizing the band’s ability to blend genres. The performance will include their original tracks along with unexpected covers that will resonate with all audience members.
Yokel shared, “If you come to our show, you’re going to hear something you know. You might not know the traditional stuff, but you might know that obscure cover from the Eagles or whatever that we’ll throw in.” This approach not only entertains but fosters a sense of community among concert-goers.
With the energy of Colorado’s vibrant music scene, High Country Hustle is set to deliver a front-porch vibe that is beautifully rough around the edges. The night will showcase their unique interpretation of bluegrass, ensuring that every attendee feels included and engaged.
