So maybe the snow of the past couple of weeks has you itching to get out of Durango – a quick drive around town is all the proof you need that the residents of this fine city are suffering from a scorching case of cabin fever.
Have neither the time nor inclination for a major trip out of here? Then how about a quick trip to Cortez to check out a little ragtime and 1920s-style Dixieland jazz? Blair Crimmins & the Hookers will be making their first-ever stop in Cortez when they play the Sunflower Theatre on Friday night.
Crimmins, a thoroughly modern musician, takes the music of a bygone era and brings it into modern times. And with 500 shows under his belt, including opening for Mumford & Sons and Preservation Hall Jazz Band, it’s pretty safe to say dude knows what he’s doing.
The musicians will take the stage at 7 p.m., with doors opening 45 minutes before the show, so give yourself enough time to get out to Cortez.
Tickets are $12 online at https://sunflowertheatre.org/events/blair-crimmins and-the-hookers-friday-january-15th-7pm/. Whatever tickets remain will be sold at the door for $15. This is a standing show – limited seating will be available, and a cash bar and concessions will be rarin’ to go.
