This year, eight concerts are on tap, plus the 8150 Urban Dance Challenge, a show to get crowds ready for the Vail International Dance Festival, returning July 30 through Aug. 13.Alt-rock band Cracker kicks off this season’s concert series. Fans of ’90s music will likely be singing along to hit singles like “Low,” “Get Off This” and “Eurotrash Girl” during the show. Cracker celebrates 25 years this year and the band is still hard at work delivering the angst-filled alternative rock that fans love.“We’re fired up about this year’s lineup — I’m still trying to wrap my mind around how we scored these bands, considering this is a free concert series,” said Tom Boyd, director of communications for the Vail Valley Foundation. “But the music is just the start. The social scene is great, the Crazy Mountain Brewery beer is colder than Gore Creek and the setting at Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater, at twilight, just takes your breath away.”Genres for the shows range from Latin funk to soul and rock. Season highlights include a special visit from Pilaseca (June 21), a Mexican funk band from Vail’s sister city that weaves rock, Latin, soul and even electronic sounds into its sets; Soul Asylum (July 12) delivering even more ‘90s nostalgia; followed by Brooklyn, New York-based Sister Sparrow & The Dirty Birds delivering the tight soul/rock sets this hard soul collective is known for.“Our music is loud, fun and it’s supposed to make you feel good,” said lead singer-songwriter Arleigh Kincheloe, of Sister Sparrow & The Dirty Birds. “That’s the goal.”SCHEDULE:June 14: Cracker — Fueling teen angst with the mixed sounds of rock, punk, grunge, blues and folk since 1991.June 21: Pilaseca — Hailing from Vail’s sister city, San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, Pilaseca’s funky Latin sound is one of a kind.June 28: 40 oz to Freedom — Energetic sets that are the perfect show for any Sublime fan.July 5: Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe — A one-of-a-kind instrumental groove experience.July 12: Soul Asylum — Jamming since 1981, Soul Asylum is likely the American rock soundtrack of your college years.July 19: Sister Sparrow & The Dirty Birds — Brooklyn, New York-based seven-piece soul-rock band led by big-voiced frontwoman, Arleigh Kincheloe.July 26: 8150 Urban Dance Challenge — Colorado’s best hip-hop crews and B-boys compete for prize money and a chance to perform during the Vail International Dance Festival’s Dance TV during this annual event.Aug. 16: Devon Allman Band — The sweetest combination of southern blues and rock.
