Shuck Wagon

Shuck Wagon is a rotating cast of some of Colorado’s finest bluegrass musicians. Tried and true to the spontaneity that can often be found in a bluegrass jam setting, but boiled down to a few select players and their imaginations. Shuck Wagon is like a box of chocolates — you’ll never know what (or who) you’re gonna get, but it’s always a treat. 

Jake Leg

Rooted in tradition but with a fierce commitment to innovation, Jake Leg forges their own path through the expansive world of acoustic music. Consisting of award-winning musicians Eric Wiggs on guitar and vocals, Dylan McCarthy on mandolin and vocals, Justin Hoffenberg on fiddle, and Aaron Hoffenberg on bass, Jake Leg breathes new life into modern progressive bluegrass, crafting a captivating landscape of high-level instrumental ability and thoughtful songwriting.

High Lonesome

Named to Denver Westword’s “Ten of the Top Colorado Bluegrass Bands” list in both 2024 and 2025, High Lonesome has quickly established themselves as one of the Front Range’s most exciting bluegrass acts. Blending dobro, fiddle, guitar, bass, and mandolin, the band delivers tight harmonies, original songwriting, and a hard-driving sound rooted in tradition but unafraid to explore jazz, jam, and beyond.
