The bluegrass band "Head for the Hills" will perform a free concert Wednesday, Aug. 26, at 8 p.m. in the UW College of Arts and Sciences auditorium.
Jalan Crossland, a Wyoming-born country music sensation will be the opening act.
The band plays a mixture of homegrown compositions, traditional harmonies and has an "innovative approach to improvisation that reflects the band's experiences living the mountain life." Hailing from Fort Collins, Colo., the members use their influence from nature and life experiences to create their unique sound.
The band has played with legendary mandolin player David Grisman, members of the Yonder Mountain String Band, and Benny Galloway and the Wayword Songs.
For more information, call Mike Lange at (307) 766-6340.
