Poco
Tuesday, August 23, 2011
Nothing beats the intimate setting, the awesome acoustics, and the close proximity to the stage afforded only at Park City's historic Egyptian Theatre.
Saturday, August 13, the Egyptian Theatre welcomes country-rock trailblazers Poco.
Formed after the break-up of Buffalo Springfield in 1968, musicians Richie Furay, Jim Messina and Rusty Young decided to start their own group oriented toward songs with a country music influence. The group's trademark sound mixed twang and backbeat with harmony vocals. In 2010, a new Poco era dawned led by Rusty Young, Jack Sundrud, and George Lawrence with additional musicians. The band always maintained their musical superiority and the new incarnation will continue to be musically superior with a foot in the past, present and future. As Rusty Young says, "Hang on, this could be quite a ride".
