The 25th season of Snowmass’ summer concert series will draw names like Xavier Rudd, Chali 2na, Jamestown Revival and the Taj Mahal Trio for free, family-friendly entertainment all summer long.
The series kicks off June 11 with Royal Southern Brotherhood featuring Cyril Neville. Traditionally held on Thursday nights, this season’s outdoor concert series includes two Friday and four Saturday shows.
That’s in part due to many of the concerts happening concurrently with one of the many events or group conferences scheduled this summer in Snowmass Village. Here’s a list of the performers on tap and summer events to look forward to:
