SILVER CITY, NM – The Mimbres Region Arts Council, in conjunction with premier sponsor Cissy McAndrew/United County Mimbres Realty and lodging sponsor Holiday Inn Express, announces the final Indie/Folk concert for this season. The Hard Road Trio from Las Cruces take the stage Saturday, April 14 at 7:30 pm at the Buckhorn Opera House, in the mountain town of Pinos Altos- just a 10-minute drive from Silver City.

Life-long musicians Steve Smith (vocals, mandolin, mandola and guitar) and Chris Sanders (vocals and guitar) are joined by emerging artist Anne Luna (vocals and bass), capturing audiences across the country with the depth of their songwriting and the power of their distinctive voices. Their music grows from Steve's love of bluegrass rooted in his native Virginia, the beauty of choral singing ever-present in Chris' Minnesota childhood and the tradition of music in Anne's New Mexico family. Together, their Southwestern blend of Roots and Bluegrass music provides a unique heartbeat and lilt underscored by Anne's driving and elegant bass. Their "perfect harmonies" (Audiophilereview.com) are "…delivered with a sense of connection and joy, both in the music and in sharing of it." (Kerry Dexter, Wandering Educators)

The Hard Road Trio sets the stage on fire from the moment they step up to the microphones. Don't miss out on the chance to hear The Hard Road Trio at the historic and intimate Buckhorn Opera House. Doors open at 7:00 pm and the performance begins at 7:30 pm.
