Description
Rocky Mountain Highway and Friends House Concerts are excited to welcome back Tony Furtado for an intimate evening of music and song in the Skyway Neighborhood on February 1.
Event Details
String wizard Tony Furtado and his trio join us here at the house as we welcome the month of February. Tony is a two time winner of the National Bluegrass Banjo Championship at Winflield, KS. He’s also a renown slide guitar player. Tony has been through FHC before and he presented a memorable show. He has toured with Allison Kraus & Union Station. Reviews of his playing from more gifted writers than me have this to say about Tony:
“As a banjo virtuoso, Furtado is well-known for his envelope-pushing, progressive bluegrass stylings. His picking is rapid-fire quick, sharp and clear, and puts him in the school of Béla Fleck and David Grisman.” – Telluride Daily Planet
“Tony Furtado is a major musical force without a doubt. He has his black-belt in voice and bottleneck guitar and his banjo playing scares the crap out of me.”
– David Lindley, musical adventurer
