Outlaw Snowdown

February 8, 9

Come SKI, SOAK and ROCK in the Rockies!The Outlaw Snowdown is more than a music festival... it's a high-country congregation of folks lookin' to have a good time; a play-hard weekend for the work-hard set.

With a line-up of artists that run the gamut from Red Dirt and Cowpunk to Americana and Outlaw, the one thing each act has in common is a kick-@**, live country show!

The main stage, featuring Shooter Jennings, Micky and the Motorcars, Whitey Morgan & the 78's, Lydia Loveless, Fifth on the Floor, Chad Sullins and the Last Call Coalition and Caitlin Cannon + the Artillery will be situated in a heated tent in the athletic field on Hermosa Street (across from Town Park) in downtown Pagosa.

Ride Wolf Creek by day and howl at the moon by night. The Outlaw Snowdown... big fun in a small (ski)town! Feb. 8 & 9, 2013!
