The Community Concert Hall at Fort Lewis College is happy to announce the return of its free summer concert series, “Concert Hall @ The Park” in downtown Durango’s Buckley Park on Thursdays at 5:30 pm beginning June 22 through August 3. 

“We have been busy booking artists to return to Buckley for this annual event and have a great line up for Durango,” said Charles Leslie, Concert Hall director. “Alpine Bank and I enjoy the process as we search for ‘just the right’ musical guests to bring to our community.  Be sure to tune in to KDUR Fort Lewis College Community Radio and listen for updates and announcements. I would recommend that folks get your dancing shoes on and be ready to have a party in Buckley Park Thursday evenings!”  

Picnics, blankets, and lawn chairs are encouraged with Fired Up Pizzeria offering a selection of food and beverages throughout the evening.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Frontera Bugalu brings the sounds of “cumbia rebajada”, a style created by slowing down vintage Colombian cumbia records on turntables, started in Monterrey, NL Mexico and spread to the entire northern Mexican and US/southwest region including El Paso, Tx and Cd. Juarez, where the band is based. The band has developed their own unique cumbia style and a contagious live set, lead by a button accordion that sonically travels from region to region and lyrics that narrate the stories of latinos in the US and across Latin America. They have shared the stage with many from the latin music scene such as Son Rompe Pera, La Santa Cecilia, Los Lobos, Yeison Landero, and Celo Piña, among many others and have become a favorite in the southwest and along the border.
