Steve Gumble, of Telluride Blues & Brews Festival, and Craig Ferguson, of Telluride Bluegrass Festival, have joined together to announce two very special shows from legendary guitarist and songwriter Neil Young in the world famous mountain town of Telluride, Colorado.

Singer, songwriter, musician, producer and two-time Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee Young will visit Telluride, Colorado to play back-to-back shows (September 30 and October 1) at the new state-of-the-art stage in Telluride Town Park.  Young will be joined on stage for his set by Promise of the Real, fronted by Lukas Nelson, son of Willie Nelson.

“Neil Young is in that genre and demographic that for me screams ‘Telluride,’ said Steve Gumble, of Telluride Blues & Brews Festival.  “He’s been a part of many people’s lives for decades.  His style, his environmentalism–it’s a really good fit for Telluride.  This is a dream come true, not only for myself, but many people in Telluride.  I am honored to be a part of these concerts which are sure to be legendary.”

In a town where festivals dominate the local music scene, one-off concerts like the Grateful Dead in 1987, Bob Dylan in 2007, and Phish in 2010 are revered as monumental moments in music history.  These once-in-a-lifetime shows will mark the first-ever slated performances from Young in Telluride.  “I believe Neil is the artist Telluride has been most wanting to see,” said Craig Ferguson, of Telluride Bluegrass Festival

Music has always been a part of my life. It probably all started listening to old Grateful Dead, Peter Paul & Mary, and Simon & Garfunkel records that my parents had, but it wasn't long before they were taking me to concerts like Starship, Crosby, Stills & Nash, and Huey Lewis & The News. I got the bug to write about music after reviewing an Eric Clapton concert for a creative writing project in high school but didn't really take it up seriously until 2002. Since then I have published countless articles in The Marquee Magazine and done some work for Jambase.com, SPIN Magazine, and various other outlets. I started Listen Up Denver! as a way to share the music information that is constantly spilling out of my head with people who care. Please enjoy!
