SUMMARY:Heavy Diamond Ring with opening act AJ Fullerton & Jake Freil
DESCRIPTION:Heavy Diamond Ring with opening act AJ Fullerton & Jake Freil\n​\nFriday\, August 1\, 2025\n​\n6:15pm-10:00pm\n​\nA Church 419 D Street Salida CO\n​\nClick here to purchase tix!\nDoors 6:15\nMusic 7:00\nTix $20 \nMODERN AMERICANA\nSome things are just meant to last. When Sarah Anderson and Paul DeHaven met and began playing together in 2004\, they had no idea just how deep the well of their musical partnership would prove to be. After the disbanding of indie-folk sweethearts Paper Bird\, the duo founded Heavy Diamond Ring and never looked back. HDR is the culmination (thus far) of their signature sound\, a fountain of open-hearted\, folk-rock\, steeped in vocal harmony and group synergy. Led by Anderson’s smooth-as-honey vocals and DeHaven’s rugged guitar chops\, the band has been described as “open-road\, long drive music”\, having “a little bit of twang\, and a whole lot of beef”\, and their live show as “infectious and contagious”. The band is rounded out by veteran knockouts Blake Stepan (bass)\, Mike Lang (keys)\, and Orion Tate Ignelzi (drums). Their second full-length LP\, “All Out of Angels”\, out this fall\, was produced by Ben Wysocki (the Fray) and Mark Anderson and features a duet with Nathaniel Rateliff. Out now on Cowboy Cowabunga Recordings. \n“Heavy Diamond Ring creates a sound that feels as classic as rolling down the windows in the summer – a super highway to a new frontier.” -303 Magazine \n“…a helping of contemporary indie-folk that goes down easy\, augmented by some subtle\, snaky guitar work\, walls of harmony vocals and Anderson’s attention-grabbing vocals.” -CS Indy

SUMMARY:Michael Hearne live!
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, August 17\, 2025\n​\n6:15pm-10:00pm\n​\nA Church 419 D Street Salida CO\n​\nDoors 6:15\nMusic 7:00\nTix $25.00 \nBeloved New Mexican Singer-Songwriter!\nFounder and Host of the Big Barn Dance Music Festival!\nIn addition to his extensive solo catalog\, he’s also recorded and toured as a duo act with Shake Russell\, and for the last two decades has hosted his own Big Barn Dance Music Festival in his beloved adopted hometown of Taos\, New Mexico!\nMichael Hearne’s destiny has been tangled in wire and wood since he first laid his hands on a guitar at the age of seven. With a natural ear for harmony and an aptitude for picking\, it wasn’t long before a young Michael Hearne was a fixture at parties and local events in his childhood hometown of Dallas. By the age of sixteen he had honed his skills on the guitar and\, without a doubt in his mind about his destiny\, he hit the road as a touring musician. Michael’s career over the next few decades would take him across the southwest and beyond. Calling the mountains of northern New Mexico home for many years\, Michael shared his talents as a singer\, songwriter\, and picker in bars\, listening rooms and dance halls throughout the region. In the 1980’s\, he toured as a member of Michael Martin Murphey’s band\, recording on Murphey’s 1982 self-titled album for Liberty Records. Hearne has penned songs for Jerry Jeff Walker and Gary P. Nunn (“Lesson to be Learned from Love”) and his New Mexico anthem\, “New Mexico Rain\,” was recorded by country music legend Johnny Rodriguez as well as by his uncle and aunt\, Bill and Bonnie Hearne. Michael has also co-written with Mentor Williams\, Andy Byrd\, Shake Russell\, Keith Sykes\, and many others. After hosting years of informal barn dances\, Michael officially began his Big Barn Dance Music Festival in Taos in 2003.
