Doors 6:30pm / Show 7:30pm
We're
bringing together some 45 creative Colorado women in bluegrass,
folk, Celtic
and Old Time music to say"Yes" to what we can
all accomplish together. This historic "Colorado Women in
Bluegrass" show includes Mollie O'Brien, Helen Forster, Joan
Wernick, KC Groves, Cheryl Winston, Mary Huckins, Jessie Burns, Sally Truitt, Jessica Smith, Annie Sirotniak,
and many, many more. Performing together in unique collaborations
- duets, trios, full bluegrass bands, and - maybe if the
mood feels right - together in one massive stage-filling
finale jam.
Thanks to the generous support of our partner, Planet Bluegrass – this
historic event will be held in the fabulous Wildflower Pavilion
at the Planet Bluegrass Ranch in Lyons! It gets better…
This
gala High Street Concert is a benefit for the Lyons Community
Foundation. The LCF is a field of interest fund of The Community
Foundation Serving Boulder County, and its mission is to
improve the quality of life, build a culture of giving, and
encourage positive change for the Greater Lyons Area. Like
other community foundations, the LCF raises money for the
use and benefit of a particular geographical area.
Thanks
to the generous donations already received since December
2007, and with funds raised by "More Pretty Girls than
One … Two," the Lyons Community Foundation will
be able to make approximately $5,000 of grants available
this summer to benefit the arts, education, environment,
civic affairs, human services, and basic needs in the Greater
Lyons Area.
Mollie O'Brien told us, "I'm really happy to be part
of such a wonderful show. It's going to be a lot of fun to
get together, and at the same time to benefit the community
of Lyons, especially in a way to help kids and the environment."
Together, with the creativity and music
of Colorado Women in Bluegrass, we have the opportunity
make a big difference
in the lives of others…all while taking part in an
amazing night of music!
You
may remember our first More Pretty Girls than One, held
in May of 2005 at Rogers Hall. Don't even get us started
on the attendance inside the Rogers Hall, and the people
in the street, and next to the hall, and ... we'll just say "SOLD-OUT!"
It
gives us chills to imagine what's going to happen on May
2, 2008 at the Wildflower Pavilion! Here are
some cherished memories from that first night, including
a special video commemorating
some of the evening's magic.We'll see you on May 2...
