Whiskey Trip coming to the Free Concert in the Park Series in Parker Colorado

2008-08-05T07:29:00.001-06:00

CONCERTS IN THE PARK~ Parker Water and Sanitation

Stop down to O'Brien Park in downtown Parker on Sunday, Aug. 10 from 1-3 p.m. as Whiskey Trip performs as part of the 2008 Concerts in the Park series! Free ice cream will be provided by the Parker Water and Sanitation District.

"They just don't make country music the way they used to…" or so said Ben O'Connor, leader of the country band, Whiskey Trip. O'Connor, who also plays upright bass in Halden Wofford's Hi-Beams, sees a honky tonk revival on the horizon. So, in efforts to re-make country "the way they used to," he enlisted the help of some friends. Together, the group brings back the danceable, hard-edged music of the 1960's and 70's, when such artists as Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn, Buck Owens and others made country cool. And now, after two years of rehearsals and club dates to solidify the repertoire, Whiskey Trip has emerged in 2007 as one of the most prominent revivalist country bands in all of Colorado.

Concerts in the Park are brought to you by the Parker Cultural Commission and the SCFD. For more information visit www.parkerpresents.org or contact Kelly Kuper at 303.805.3263.
