Why Pickin’ in The Rockies

There is something so unique and special about Southern Bluegrass music that one can never understand it unless they experience it for themselves. However, being that Colorado is not in the South nor anywhere near a Southern state, it is missing out. Pickin’ in The Rockies is changing that, though. We are bringing the historical, community founding, and storytelling of Southern Bluegrass music to Western Colorado.

The President of this event, Garret Dupper, has always been a huge fan of Bluegrass music, but did not become involved with it until the year 2020. As he became involved and found an even greater passion for it his event planning brain started working. From that his very first vision of Pickin in The Rockies was born. He is so excited to finally make this event a reality and cannot wait to aid in putting it on for you all.

However, it is not a one-person job. He wants to give a shoutout to his entire board for their help. Besides the board the event is possible via an army of volunteers which there is always room for more.
