The Grant County Community Concert Association presents Acoustic Eidolon a guitar and cello/vocal duo on Thursday, February 20th in the WNMU Fine Arts Theater at 7 PM.
These artists/musicians stir emotions in their audiences through the magic and wonder of musical storytelling. Their passion for the music and their technical skill on their instruments pulls the audience into an experience which expresses joy and gratitude for being alive.
Their sound, both current and nostalgic, is genre-bending. Drawing influences from Celtic, Americana, Folk, Rock and Flamenco, it is authentic and passionate. Audiences of all ages and musical tastes consistently rave about this Colorado-based duo.
Individual tickets are $20 and can be purchased in advance at the Pink Store on Bullard, on-line at gcconcerts.org or at the door the night of the concert. Children to age 17 are admitted free of charge.
A special thanks to concert sponsors: WNMU, 1st New Mexico Bank, Kiwanis, Creative West, The National Endowment for the Arts, Western Institute for Lifelong Learning (WILL) and the Silver City Daily Press.
