Cold Creek is the premier Bluegrass band in Utah, offering a performance that is both energetic and poignant. The award-winning members of Cold Creek have performed with the top Bluegrass bands in Utah, including former UPAT artist Gift Horse, and have now formed one of the top bands in the region, performing at Bluegrass festivals, community events, and private functions throughout the West in 2006. Their current CD release, Faithfully, has been earning excellent reviews. Audiences are inspired by the vocals and amazed by the instrumentation Cold Creek offers in every performance.

Their music affects an amazing range of listeners, from children who enjoy the upbeat tempos and instruments to old-timers who are reminded of the good old days. Their progressive form of Bluegrass is also increasingly popular with young adults, who equate their style with that of Alison Krauss & Union Station, Nickel Creek, and Ricky Skaggs. But perhaps the greatest aspect of Cold Creek's music is that it reflects the all-American traditions and values from which Bluegrass was born. Their performances are rousing reminders of days when joy and family and fun were more common.

A Cold Creek performance typically includes 1 ½ to 2 hours of exceptional Bluegrass music. They perform both original pieces and covers of traditional and progressive Bluegrass favorites.

Outreach Options:

The members of Cold Creek are passionate about educating people of all ages about the history and potential of Bluegrass music. Outreach options range from a performance at a school or community center to history and instrument education to jamming with aspiring musicians from elementary schoolers to old-timers. They particularly enjoy working with children in K-12.

Technical Requirements:

Because Cold Creek is an acoustic Bluegrass group, they are fairly flexibly in their technical requirements. They prefer to work on a stage with sufficient power for a round mic and instrument mics, but will adapt to the size of the audience and venue.
