Members of Elk Range performing as a duo, with Ken Gentry on mandolin and Curtis Fiore on guitar. When the group plays as a trio, they re joined by Betty Hoops on harmonica.
This Thursday from 6-9 p.m. at the Ute Theater Concert Patio series, Elk Range, a bluegrass duo that often plays as a trio or quartet, will be performing and sharing their sound with all of downtown Rifle.
Ken Gentry, the band’s mandolin player, said one of their friend’s observations about Elk Range’s energy while performing really hit the nail on the head.
“Our friend kind of coined it best, and she said ‘if it ain’t fast, it ain’t Elk Range bluegrass,’” Gentry said.
