2014 Beartrap Summer Festival

It came. It went. We're spent. We loved this year's line-up for Beartrap 2014--from Jalan Crossland, Littlest Birds and Spencer Bohren, to Johnny Sketch, The Deadly Gentlemen and Nitty Gritty Dirt Band--the bluegrass, country, jazz, insert other awesome music type here, rocked our socks off...

Concert goers from all over Wyoming packed into Beartrap Meadow to hear a range of voices, including the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. It was a perfect Sunday afternoon, and the crowds were eager to express their love for all things bluegrass.

The local has drawn quite the gathering in the Casper area, as well as the state. The performer will be touring the state in the next few weeks, hitting Cody, Ten Sleep, Cheyenne, Gillette, and more...

One of the few acts at Beartrap Summer Festival that makes flatpicking a true art form--Rebecca Frazier and Hit Run stepped on stage to engage the festival crowd with some plucky, upbeat tunes.
