With openers Carling & Will.  Fusing sounds of the Isle of Skye and Cape Breton with Americana grooves and innovations, this top-notch trio creates a cutting-edge acoustic sound that retains the integrity and spirit of the Scottish tradition.

In 2021, the International Bluegrass Music Association awarded their top prize for an emerging band, the Momentum Band of the Year, to Colorado’s Stillhouse Junkies. The trio went on to become two-time Telluride Bluegrass band contest finalists. This fast-rising trio plays a delirious, head-spinning mixture of original roots, blues, funk, swing, and bluegrass music and is a perfect fit for our Bright Series!

This series is made possible by the support of Kevin & Claudia Bright.
