Town Mountain

Band known for ‘hard-driving’ sound

GOLD HILL Raw, soulful, and with plenty of swagger, Asheville, North Carolina-based bluegrass band Town Mountain has earned raves for its hard-driving sound, songwriting and the honky-tonk edge that permeates their exhilarating live performances.

Catch the band at the Gold Hill Inn, BLUE401 Main St., Aug. 3 at 9 p.m. TickGRASS ets are $12. The band rounds out its Colorado run with shows at Ophelia’s Electirc Soap Box in Denver, Aug. 2 and Hodi’s Half Note in Ft. Collins, Aug. 4.

The band features guitarist and vocalist Robert Greer, banjoist Jesse Langlais, mandolinist Phil Barker, fiddler Bobby Britt and Zach Smith on bass.

The hearty base of Town Mountain’s music is the first and second generation of bluegrass spiced with coun-

try, old school rock ‘n’ roll, and boogie-woogie. It’s what else goes into the mix that brings it all to life both on stage and on record and reflects the group’s wide-ranging influences—from the Grateful Dead’s Jerry Garcia and the ethereal lyrics of Robert Hunter, to the honest country of Willie, Waylon, and Merle.

While the members have taken the road less traveled when it comes to the mainstream or traditional purists, they’ve been dubbed as “The Taco Stand Troubadours” by Durango Telegraph’s Chris Aaland, due to their frequent stops at such establishments, and he calls them “one of those bands that has paid its dues and won over the Durango audience through the years, much like the Gourds and Leftover Salmon.”

Call 303-443-6461 for advance tickets and restaurant reservations. Visit goldhillinn.com and townmountain.net to learn more.

Boulder duo mix variety of acoustic styles NEDERLAND Born in New York City and raised in Boulder, The Fremonts “weave Midwestern ghost stories into restless Americana music.” Catch the act, July 21 from 6-8 p.m., at Very Nice Brewing Company, 20 Lakeview Drive in Nederland.

Stephanie Dodd—originally from AMERIFremont, Nebraska—contributes CANA vocals, keyboard, xylophone and accordion while Justin Badger—originally from Fremont, California— provides vocals, guitar and kick drum. The duo lace their sound with bluegrass, country, blues, folk and indie pop influences.

By blending Dodd’s “lyrical” voice and Badger’s “turbulent” style, they take on a range of topics from sprawling tales of escape and ambition to quiet disenchantment with traditional roles in American family life. In their three years of creating music together, The Fremonts have “unearthed fresh authenticity in their writing and performances through dedicated practice and community building.”

Female-fronted Minneapolis act ‘rocks hard’ NEDERLAND/JAMESTOWN

Fronted and founded by fight director, songwriter and guitarist Annie Enneking, Annie and the Bang Bang is a Minneapolis band known to “rock hard.” Catch the band for free at The Pioneer Inn, 15 E. First St. in Nederland, July 27 from ROCK 10 p.m.-1 a.m., and Jamestown Mercantile, 108 Main St. on July 28 from 8-10 p.m.

The band crafts “dreamily potent grunge-meets-late-sixties-dark-rock and pop gems that value energy, animal intelligence, and beautiful mischief.” Enneking believes songwriting is an act of spiritual archeology. She relies on the artistry, thick invention, and dig-right-down-into-it-ness of the Bang Bangs: the stacked chording and “just what the song wants” guitar of John Riedlinger, the lead-with-the-heart bass monster that is Kari Tweiten, and the heavy adventure and sharpcorner-turning of new drummer, Mike Kittel.

Enneking received the 2012 Minnesota Regional Arts Council’s Next Step Grant in support of the band’s self-titled debut. She was a 2010 Playwrights’ Center McKnight Theatre Artist Fellow, has twice received a Minnesota State Arts Board Artist Initiative Grant for music, and financial support from the Jerome Foundation to support her sizable work as a theatre/music maker.

ollinsville-based music duo Strangebyrds, Cari Minor and Ray Smith, have assembled songs over the last two years and have recorded them for their new album, “Star Crossed Lovers,” which was released in May. Minor’s love of books and history inspired the album’s ballads, which are combined with Smith’s contemporary, moving songs about “love, life and the beauty of the world around us. The pair continues to evolve their signature sound, which they call “Blue Collar Folk.” All songs in the album are written, recorded and performed by Minor and Smith.

Songs on the album include “Star Crossed Lovers,” inspired by the 1913 book O Pioneers! by Willa Cather and Willy, a song inspired by the more than 1,200 women who dressed as men and fought in the Civil War. Minor won a Top Ten Songwriters Award at both the 2016 Rocky Mountain Folks Festival’s New Song Competition and the 2017 Telluride Bluegrass Festival’s Troubadour Song Competition for Willy. Smith’s “You Won’t Leave My Heart” is a tribute to their hero Tom Petty and to all the great musician’s who have now passed on who influenced Ray as a young musician.

The album was mostly recorded and mixed at the couple’s Byrd Nest Recording Studio in Rollinsville with some work done at Mhic An Daill Studio in County Kerry, Ireland. It features Boulder County musician Kort McCumber on penny whistle, accordion, cello and banjo on the songs, Cold Day, Ghosts Of Duffy’s Cut and Willy. Melissa McGinley plays violin on the song Star Crossed Lovers. The album was mastered by David Glasser at Airshow Mastering in Boulder, CO. The original artwork on the cover is by Linda Saport.

SUMMER OPERA FESTIVAL HITS

HIGH N TE C

CENTRAL CITY entral City Opera’s 2018 Summer Festival, July 7-Aug. 5, features Mozart’s The Magic Flute and Verdi’s Il trovatore in repertory. Also performed in smaller venues throughout Central City are one-act productions of Handel’s Acis and Galatea and the 40th Anniversary of Henry Mollicone’s Face on the Barroom Floor, a Central City Opera commissioned work. Tickets to all performances and special events are on sale now online and by phone.

“In previous years, we have performed our productions in Central City as well as various venues in the Denver metro area,” Central City Opera General/Artistic Director Pelham (Pat) Pearce said. “While we presented to a number of patrons in the city who had never experienced Central City Opera before, we have determined that the most important thing we can do is perform our extraordinary operas in the 550 seat jewel-box theater in the beautiful mountain location of Central City, just a 45 minute drive from Denver. We feel our performances are so impactful, not only because of the attention we give to the artistic details but also because they are curated for the special environment of the historic town, in the incredible opera house built in 1878. The experience of seeing the operas in Central City is so unique and special.”

Complementing the two main stage productions, two one-act operas are featured. “The popularity of these one-acts continues to grow since we introduced them in 2015,” Pearce said. “They draw both opera goers who are looking for something different as well as those who are new to the art form and curious about experiencing something that’s shorter, less expensive, and feels more accessible.”

Rounding out the two main stage productions and the two one-acts, the Central City Opera four-week summer festival offers a series of recitals, opera scenes, pre-performance lectures and post-performance mix-and-mingles with the artists. Thursday evening performances have returned to the mix of matinee and evening performances throughout the festival, making it possible for those that are unable to attend matinee performances during the week to see all the productions during an extended weekend.

COVER STORY

18-HOLES OF HISTORY Estes Park celebrates 100 years of scenic, high-country golf

By Jeffrey V. Smith ESTES PARK his year, Estes Park is celebrating 100 years of mountain golf at the edge of Rocky Mountain National Park, and so should you. While the sport was introduced to the area by Windham Thomas Wyndham-Quinn, the Fourth Earl of Dunraven in the 1870s, it wasn’t until he sold off his 6,000 acres of property to The Estes Park Investment Company that a proper 18-hole golf course began to take shape.

The investors who purchased Lord Dunraven’s property started down the road of creating a course by building a clubhouse, which was completed in 1909. Smokin’ Dave’s BBQ at the Hangar and the pro-shop are located there today. Eventually, the Estes Park Golf and Country Club was incorporated on Nov. 10, 1917 with some of Estes Park’s most notable men of the time on its Board of Directors.

The first design was an 18-hole course set against Fish Creek, which opened for the first round of play on July 4, 1918. During the 1930’s financial crisis, however, it was converted to a 9-hole course and an airstrip was built in hopes of improving tourism.

The unsafe airport, which did little to promote travel, closed in the late 1940s.

Further financial trouble forced the country club to lease its course to the Town of Estes Park. By the mid-1950s, the town was in full ownership and in 1957, it was leased to the recreation district, known today as Estes Valley Recreation and Park District.

Funding was obtained to transform the course— with its buffalo grass fairways, sand greens and prairie for rough—back into an 18-hole course with grass fairways, a watering system and locker rooms with showers. Henry Hughes, a golf course architect from Denver, was hired to transform the former Estes Park Golf and Country Club. His remodeled course opened on July 5, 1960 as the Estes Park Municipal Golf Course, now called the Estes Park 18-Hole Golf Course.

Several upgrades have been made over the years, including the addition of an irrigation system in the 1970s and a new fleet of gas-powered golf carts for the 2017 golf season. The management of the course is overseen by Estes Valley Recreation and Park District, but the property continues to be owned by the Town of Estes Park.

“This is a special occasion for our course here in Estes Park, which is one of the oldest in Colorado,” Manager of Golf Services Mark Miller said. “Only a handful of courses have reached this milestone in the U.S. and we are excited to be one of the few in that collection.”

Since the season opening, EVRPD has been cel-

The Estes Park 18-Hole Golf Course, which has spectacular views throughout, is kept in excellent condition despite its mountain location. The course and its practice areas, which are just as scenic, are also family-friendly.

ebrating the anniversary and will continue to do so throughout the year. A beer—Centennial Smash— was brewed by the local Lumpy Ridge Brewin Company to commemorate the 100th season. It is available all season long at the course clubhouse.

Smokin’ Dave’s BBQ at the Hangar Restaurant is offering special food and beverage prices.

To further commemorate the centennial season, the recreation district holds the Centennial Golf Tournament, July 4, starting at 8 a.m. It marks exactly 100 years since a group of men played the first round of golf on the course. The tournament is limited to the first 100 players who register by calling the Estes Park 18-Hole Golf Course at 970-586-8146.

Anniversary aside, the course, which remains open until Oct. 31, is a great place for residents and visitors to play a round in the mountains where it’s cooler and the scenery is unmatched. While its not the most difficult in the state, it does provide a good challenge to experienced golfers while allowing the casual golfer something to work with.

“The Estes Park [18-Hole] Golf Course is the place to come for not just golf. I think it’s a destination,”Assistant Golf Professional Austin Logan said. “Not only can you golf, but you can hike, you can fish, you can do everything, and the golf is a lot better than you would expect.”

According to Logan, who has been working at the par-71 course for 12 years, it’s one of the best courses around for its level of challenge. “Good golfers will like it here. On a lot of courses you just get beat up for one bad mistake and all of a sudden your round is gone. Here you can make a couple of mistakes,” he explained. “So, it’s a good challenge for the good player and it’s an awesome place for the beginner, too—which a lot of people who are going to visit the park, are. [The course] is not going to beat you up if you don’t golf all the time, and it’s just a good spot for a golf course, condition wise, compared to other golf courses. You think, ‘if it’s in the mountains, maybe it’s not as good.’ But it’s in awesome shape.”

Credit for the course’s excellent condition goes

to course Superintendant John Feeney and his staff.

“They work really hard, summer and winter, to keep this place maintained,” Logan explained. “As far as mountain courses go, if you look over on the other side of the Divide to Vail, Grand Lake, Summit, some of those, they had a really rough winter and lost some greens. You never want to lose greens, that’s a horrible thing. We uncovered our greens here in March, and they were awesome. They are awesome now.”

Beyond the golf, Logan points out the course is also a great place to view wildlife. Bears, deer, elk, fox, bald eagles, hawks, falcons are often seen on the course. “Anything you would see in the mountains, comes here at some point,” he said.

“It’s just a really great place to be. It’s really never packed. We have some events, but you can come out and find an afternoon time almost every day,” Logan said. “If you didn’t know there was a golf course here, come and check us out. There is something for everybody and don’t think it’s as crazy as you read. People hear 5 million park visitors and don’t even want to try it, but it’s really not that bad. If you’re a beginner, or a great golfer, there is something for everybody.” The course also features a putting green, chipping green, natural grass and artificial hitting areas for practice and learning.

In addition to the 18-Hole Golf Course, located at 1480 Golf Course Road, EVRPD also operates the Lake Estes 9-Hole Course, which hugs the Big Thompson River, features five par-3s and four par4s and often dozens of elk. Weather permitting, it’s open year-round.
