bus tapesSILVER CITY, NM – The Mimbres Region Arts Council, in conjunction with premier sponsor Cissy McAndrew/United County Mimbres Realty, lodging sponsor Holiday Inn Express, and Gila Mimbres Community Radio, announces the fourth and final concert for the 2018-19 Indie Folk Series. The Bus Tapes take the stage Saturday, April 20 at 7:30 pm at the Buckhorn Opera House, in the scenic mountain town of Pinos Altos- just a 10-minute drive from Silver City.

Hailing from Santa Fe, N.M., The Bus Tapes are a “fresh and funky” band comprised of husband and wife duo Heather Tanner on vocals and guitar, Case Tanner on bass. Playing together for over a decade, they combine original songs and covers of fan favorites to create eclectic folk rock sets with a blues and jazz-inspired twist. The Bus Tapes have won two New Mexico Music Awards—the first in 2012 for “Best Novelty/ Humorous Song” and the second in 2013 for “Best Pop Song.”

A rhythmic, acoustic feel on top of relatable song writing is the leading tone behind their collaborative music. Folks enjoy their interactive, friendly show, and appreciate the varying types of music – The Bus Tapes mix it up. One tune might be a funky R&B cover, the next a happy folk song, and the one after that a down-beat ballad

Don’t miss out on the chance to hear The Bus Tapes at the historic and intimate Buckhorn Opera House. Doors open at 7:00 pm and the performance begins at 7:30 pm.
