The acoustic band Taarka, from Colorado, will be performing at the Odd Fellows Hall this Saturday evening, April 11.
Emerging from a long tradition of gypsy circus troubadours, Taarka performs an engaging mix of Western and Eastern folk traditions of jazz, rock, bluegrass, old-time, gypsy, Indian, and Celtic music. Collectively and individually, members of Taarka have shared stages with members of the Grateful Dead, Phish, and String Cheese Incident, Widespread Panic, Kevin Mohagoney, Rob Wasserman, to name a few.
Band members include David Tiller (mandolin, tenor guitar, vocals), Enion Pelta-Tiller (five string violin, vocals), Daniel Plane (cello, vocals), Troy Robey (bass, vocals), and Dale Largent (percussion). Taarka hails from Lyons, CO and have performed at such music festivals as Telluride Bluegrass, Bumbershoot, and Seattle Folklife.
They will appear Saturday night, April 11th, at the Odd Fellows Hall. Performance begins at 7:30 pm. Tickets available at the door for $10.
