The Spinning Wheels, featuring Dolores and Durango musicians, will play the Riverfront Bar and Grill in Dolores on Saturday, Nov. 12.
The band plays Americana infused with “a sonic, spiritual worldly flare” and an assortment of stylized covers, according to the website CD Baby.
Band members Matt Robinson (guitar), John Toolan (harmonica, guitar, vocals), Dan Miller (bass), Darcy Cole (guitar), and Peter Ortego (drums) are known for their high energy performances as well as intimate acoustic sets.
“Our music is heavily influenced by Southwestern culture,” the band’s website says. “We’re very eclectic and our set lists are derived from a variety of genres.”
The Spinning Wheels have been around for ten years and have two albums out, “Hummingbird World,” and their latest release, “Streets of Durango,” recorded at Scooters Place in Durango.
“The new songs have a lot of Southwestern imagery,” says Robinson. “Our live shows are Americana spiced up with Rock-n-Roll. We play a combination of originals and covers, including Neil Young, BB King, and the Grateful Dead.”
The show starts around 8 p.m. and there is no cover.
