This past weekend, The Eagle River Jamboree descended upon Eagle County's fairgrounds August 8 & 9 with a stellar first line up that included both local and national touring artists. While everyone was hoping for a bit more attendees, (there were perhaps 1,500 in total), it was still a great, well organized event, and we hope it returns next year.

The Danielle Nicole Band performed an impressive set before headliner Robert Randolph, showing everyone that she was by far the best performer at this year's Blues Jam.

Bronwyn Keith Hynes always delivers and returns to the Lariat in BV on Friday, June 5, 2026

Molly Tuttle musician and fiddler Bronwyn Keith Hynes returned to the Lariat this past Friday night in beautiful Buena Vista, Colorado. This was our sixth time reviewing her this year, and she always stands out. Bronwyn's young band is also excellent, and they played a good handful of tunes from every musician's catalog. However, we would have liked to heard more Bronwyn's songs, but she did play our favorite 'Can't Live Without Love'. She does a superb version of Fleetwood Mac's The Chain live, which is just as good as Molly's White Rabbit. The sound is also always excellent at The Lariat, but the lighting not so much.
