The 19th Annual Telluride Blues & Brews Festival proudly announced the initial 2012 lineup today. Phil Lesh & Friends, Gov’t Mule, and the B-52s headline the September Festival weekend, with additional festival appearances by Chris Robinson Brotherhood, MarchFourth Marching Band, Tab Benoit, Little Hurricane and The Lee Boys, with many more acts to be announced. Tickets for the 19th Annual Telluride Blues & Brews Festival, held September 14-16, 2012, are on sale now.
“We are extremely excited with the lineup this year in Telluride,” said Steve Gumble, Festival Director. “The festival weekend boasts amazing and legendary musical talent with much more to come!”
Those looking for the inspiration of the current jam band movement need look no further than Phil Lesh. A founding member of the venerable American musical institution, the Grateful Dead, Lesh has continued to inspire while pushing the envelope with his highly evolved musical performances. His performance in Telluride this fall is one of the most anticipated in the festival’s 19 year history.
For guitarist/lead vocalist Warren Haynes and his band, Gov’t Mule, creating a new album is akin to walking a tightrope: they write new songs that please old fans, while hopefully garnering new ones. It’s not a surprise their coined one of the hardest working bands in rock history…
It is well known that the B-52s are the World’s Greatest Party Band. And thirty years and over twenty million albums into their career, The B-52s remain among the most beloved rock stars ever. Their performance in Telluride Town Park will be one not to miss, as they serve up their unique blend of music with their combination of rock’n'roll, funk and retro-hip music.
Tickets for 3-Day passes, Juke Joint passes, and Camping passes are on sale now. Single day tickets go on Sale June 15th.

LOCATION:
Mountain Village
Calling lovers of all kinds, the 17th annual Chocolate Lovers’ Fling, a fundraiser for the San Miguel Resource Center, is on Saturday, Feb. 11th at the Telluride Conference Center from 7:30 to 11:30 pm. If you are a lover of non-violence, and I know you are, help the San Miguel Resource Center to end domestic violence and sexual assault in the Telluride community by attending the annual fundraiser, the Chocolate Lover’s Fling. This event helps them to raise one third of their annual budget. If you are a lover of chocolate, it doesn’t get any better than dozens of bite sized chocolate desserts from premiere regional chefs, all centered around the “TV Land” theme. If you are a lover of dancing, DJ Harry will be helping us move with his exceptional music all night long. This year’s theme, “TV Land”, should inspire costume creativity from old favorite TV shows from decades past, to cartoons, to game shows, to reality TV shows.
At the Chocolate Lovers’ Fling you can dance, eat delectable chocolate, bid at the silent auction, participate in the cash raffle, and support a great cause all at the same time. There are cash prizes for the best dressed and good karma for all. Tickets are available at Two Skirts or at www.sanmiguelresourcecenter.org for $40 until Saturday, February 5th or for $50 at the event.
There are two other ways to support the San Miguel Resource Center. Save your “Cash Savers” and donate them at Clarks during the week of February 5th- 11th and become an SMRC Special Contributor (please visit www.sanmiguelresourcecenter.org for more information on becoming a SMRC Special Contributor).
Tickets purchased on the website will be held at “Will Call” or can be picked up at the San Miguel Resource Center office, located in the bottom floor of the Ice House Lodge across from Smuggler’s Restaurant.
