Bluegrass Music with Bob Amos and Catamount Crossing
July 29, 2017 @ 7:00 pm
The Great North Woods Committee for the Arts presents Bob Amos and Catamount Crossing at the Monadnock Congregational Church in Colebrook.
Enjoy a night of top-flight bluegrass by one of the region’s favorites. Bob Amos and his crew roll over from Vermont to show why they have become one of the biggest draws every year during St. Johnsbury’s First Night.
Bob Amos first became an internationally recognized and acclaimed bluegrass musician and songwriter as the leade of the popular award-winning band Front Range. From 1990-2003, Front Range recorded seven CDs, and received top reviews and heavy airplay on bluegrass radio programs throughout the world. Over many years Amos has been universally praised for his musical arrangements and origina bluegrass material.
The group features Bob on banjo, guitar and vocals, his daughter Sarah Amos on vocals, Freeman Corey on fiddle, Gary Darling on mandolin and vocals, Steve Wright on guitar and vocals, and bassist Chris Cruger.
The band puts on an entertaining high-energy show, with stellar harmonies, rock solid instrumentation, top-shelf original material, plus great new interpretations of some bluegrass classics.
