Hugh Phillips brings his acclaimed “Colorado Country” sound to The Vault at the Wheeler Opera House for an intimate acoustic performance as part of the Roaring Fork Rising Series. Set within one of Aspen’s most iconic cultural landmarks, this rare evening offers a stripped-down, listening-room experience with seating for just 98 guests.
Known for his powerful live shows across the West, Phillips turns the focus to songwriting, storytelling, and connection—featuring songs from his country radio releases “Boys That’s a Cowgirl” and “Bottom of the Bottle,” along with carefully chosen selections that reflect his Rocky Mountain roots. As Country Music News International notes, “Hugh Phillips’ journey from local stages to national country radio is a testament to his talent and genuine connection with his music.”
With extremely limited seating, this exclusive Aspen performance is expected to sell quickly.
Colorado Country at its best! These guys are gaining a lot of traction performing fairs, festivals, and honky-tonks with a show you don’t want to miss! This 4-piece band performs their hits as well as Merle, Waylon, Hank Jr., Brothers Osbourne, Midland, Zac Brown, Dierks Bentley and a host of other greats from the 70’s all the way to the latest on Country radio. You can count on an exciting performance rocking out to country sounds with a bluegrass flair.
And the hits keep coming! Hugh signed with SSM Nashville and is well on his way to the bigtime releasing his second song ‘Bottom of the Bottle’ [SSM/SKM] to country radio in March and the video released in April this year. The combo has created buzz throughout the country music world. His first song ‘Boys That’s a Cowgirl’ [SSM] went to radio last year with huge success for a country artist new to the scene.
The Hugh Phillips Band is from Carbondale Colorado. Their first release ‘It’s Been a Long Time’ on SKM/String Kitchen Music, were nominated as the Best New Artist/Band, Best New Male Vocalist, and Best New Americana/Country Song [Hi-Ways] on the Colorado Playlist 2021 Listener Poll. With more music on the horizon as well as video and touring this is a band to watch!
