Orca
Bringing youthful energy and eclectic taste to the Colorado music scene, Denver-based quintet “Orca” feeds an appetite for exploration with tight, engaging compositions and instills lasting confidence with classic covers and mellow ballads boasting three vocalists often heard in harmony. Anchored in funky bass, engaged drums, bluesy licks, and poppy choruses, Orca’s chaotic curiosity reliably pushes the band to a unique result each night, leaving showgoers an adventurous memory riddled with sticky hooks, tactful musicianship, and inspiring joy.
Annual events in Crested Butte and Gunnison
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
