Schaffer Brothers Band: Colorado Public Lands Day

Join us at the Fruita Tavern in Fruita on Saturday, May 15, for our annual Colorado Public Lands Day celebration! As threats to our public lands grow, this family-friendly event unites community leaders, conservationists and outdoor enthusiasts to stand up for the wild places we love. With live music and inspiring guest speakers, this is a chance to come together, learn about current threats like public land sell-offs and take meaningful action to protect Colorado’s public lands. Let’s raise a glass and raise our voices!

Rooted in Blues, Americana, Swamp Rock, and Funk, the Schaffer Brothers Band creates raw, no-frills music with a focus on grit, groove, and storytelling. Based in Grand Junction, Colorado, brothers Tyler and Kyle Schaffer bring deep-pocket rhythms, story telling, unique progressions, and jam band improvisation into a sound that’s both familiar and fresh.​

Influenced by artists like Leon Russell, JJ Cale, Delbert McClinton, Randy Newman, Little Feat, Waylon Jennings and many others, the Schaffer Brothers seamlessly mix tight songwriting with the freedom of extended jams.
