FINISH THE SEASON AT BRECKENRIDGE WITH THE STRINGDUSTERS
The Infamous Stringdusters will close out the season at Breckenridge Ski Resort on Sunday, April 19, part of Breck Spring Fever.
The Infamous Stringdusters have proved they can both mine the past and look forward to the unknown, and their new album, “Let It Go,” is a touchstone for a group of tightly bonded musicians completely comfortable with one another and their collective identity.
Perhaps the sentiment is best expressed through the band’s five joined voices in the gospel-hued title track: “If it’s worry you’ve been feeling over things you can’t control, it’s time to let it go.” The free music starts at 2 p.m. The resort emphasizes that no dogs other than accredited service dogs will be allowed at the base of Peak 8 during the concert.
