Winners of the 2008 Telluride Bluegrass festival band contest, the Blue Canyon Boys offer a unique style of Colorado Bluegrass steeped in tradition with enough excursions to keep all types of music lovers tapping their feet. This bluegrass powerhouse consists of Gary Dark on mandolin, Jason Hicks on guitar, Drew Garrett on bass, and Jeff Scroggins on banjo. Blending incredible brother-duet-style vocals and hard-driving instrumental proficiency, this energetic band is driving audiences to their feet and keeping them there. With two well-received recordings of originals and interpretations of traditional songs by the likes of Monroe, Stanley, and McReynolds the Blue Canyon Boys have become one of Colorado’s most celebrated Front Range bluegrass bands. Now available is their third release: House Full of Sorrow.

Here’s what people are saying about the Blue Canyon Boys:

“As the Blue Canyon Boys continue to grow and evolve, they could very well develop into a force to be reckoned with" (Bluegrass Unlimited, July 08)

“The Blue Canyon Boys have a lot of talent and energy, and this record (Hello City Limits) has some outstanding singing and picking" (Pete Wernick)

“The high lonesome brother-duet style harmonies are alive and well in Colorado" (Brian Eyster, Planet Bluegrass)

“The Telluride competition is among the toughest, with high quality judges, all of whom are particular and discerning when it comes to judging this great music. The Blue Canyon Boys stood the test and deservingly walked away with the prize. It takes a great band to do that" (Sally Van Meter)
