HOOTS & HELLMOUTH BRING PROGRESSIVE FOLK ROCK TO THE BUD LIGHT HOT SUMMER NIGHTS FREE CONCERT SERIES JULY 13 AT THE FORD AMPHITHEATER

VAIL, Colorado—The Bud Light Hot Summer Nights free concert series plays host to “new music for old souls” from Hoots & Hellmouth.  The foot-stompin’ fun kicks off on Tuesday, July 13 at 6:30pm, with gates opening at 5:30pm, at the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater in Vail.

Hoots & Hellmouth have made it their musical mission to continuously blaze a trail in the name of a progressive renewal.  Furthermore, Rob Berliner, Andrew Gray and Sean Hoots aren’t just musicians, but as they describe it, a “ragtag bunch seeking a revival of spirit.”

It is with this spirit that Hoots & Hellmouth approach every song they write, record and perform, and it can be felt at the heart of every note.  Captivated audiences can’t help but get swept up in the exhilarating atmosphere from start to finish.  "The Hoots' blend of alt-country, rock and gospel [is] amplified only by their own considerable joy...the disparate trio prove[s] that showmanship is more about attitude and energy." (The Boston Globe)

All Bud Light Hot Summer Nights free concerts get underway at 6:30pm, with the gates of the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater opening at 5:30pm.  Food, commercially-sealed non-alcoholic beverages and leg-less lawn chairs are permitted in the Ford Amphitheater, however dogs should be left at home.

The 2010 Bud Light Hot Summer Nights series is a project of the Vail Valley Foundation.  For additional information on Bud Light Hot Summer Nights, call 888-883-VAIL(8245) or visit the Hot Summer Nights website.
