Alpine Meadows’ Spring Music Series Kicks Off Spring Fun at Alpine
Alpine Meadows Celebrates Spring with a Stellar Lineup for the Spring Music Series

[Alpine Meadows, Calif.] March 20, 2013 –Alpine Meadows’ Spring Music Series presents an energetic lineup of live music every weekend through April. There’s no better way to start a spring day than to follow the sun and enjoy Alpine’s world class corn snow and finish the day off with a cold beverage while soaking up the sun on the Sun Deck listening to live music. Here is a complete lineup of music for the Spring Music Series:

March 23: SambaDa
Founded in Santa Cruz, the phenomenon known as SambaDá combine bloco afro (Afro-Brazilian percussion music), samba-reggae, surf-rock and California funk into an irresistible stew. This smoldering assemblage of Brazilian and American musicians brings a rollicking samba party with a funky twist.

March 30: Good Gravy
These five members of the band have become virtual masters of using bluegrass instrumentation, along with percussion, to push their bluegrass roots to new musical horizons, creating an innovative mix of bluegrass, funk, rock and psychedelic dance beats complete with imaginative improvisational jams and intricate compositions.

April 6: Music by Jurts
As part of the Red Bull Schlittentag after party there will be music by Jurtz out on the Sundeck.

April 7: Tracorum
Tracorum is an original rock’n'soul/rhythm’n'blues band from San Francisco.

April 13: Peter Joseph Burtt & The King Tide

April 14: Joy and Madness (formerly The Nibblers)
Joy and Madness is a band of soul brothers, pulled together from the ashes of The Nibblers, a Sacramento based funk and soul phenomenon that quickly rose to prominence in the Nor Cal area and beyond.

April 27: The Grease Traps

April 28: Huckle
This Northern California-based singer-songwriter-guitarist is always ready to dig his itchy toes into fresh soil, hips swinging as he projects outwards into the world. One picks up on some of the blessed West Coast vibe of Jack Johnson and the oceanic oomph of John Butler in his readily appealing music, but there’s also a winning attack to his sound, a hunger felt in the gut of the listener.
