KIND HEARTED STRANGERS

Hailing from all corners of the country, Kind
more...0
Hearted Strangers began in Boulder, CO-where an impromptu open mic performance by songwriter Marc Townes quickly evolved into something much bigger. With genre-bending improvisations from lead guitarist Kevin Hinder and bassist/vocalist Ace Engfer, KHS has become a dynamic full band capable of bridging the gap between all-out rock n’ roll and their harmony-driven acoustic roots.
Their debut record “East//West” (2021) digs into the places they’ve come from and explores the places they’re going to, with a diverse sound that reflects the broad influences each member brings to the band.
Tickets are $20. Doors open at 6:30 Show starts at 7pm
