Get on the Bus! Pickin’ on the Poudre is the quintessential Mishawaka BOOMshakalaka! Awkward as that may seem to describe the Fort Collins bluegrass quartet Head for the Hills composed of Adam Kinghorn (Guitar), Michael Chappell (Mandolin), Joe Lessard (Fiddle), and Matt Loewen (Bass), it’s appropriate. For nine years, H4TH has blown away Cache la Poudre patrons with their acrobatic backwoods antics.

Head for the Hills is pleased to announce their third studio album, Blue Ruin, slated for release on July 9th, 2013.

Think Meta-fictional sea shanties, pop-infused newgrass murder ballads and urbane lyricism, twang and punch.
