Hollow Down and The God Damn band are swinging through Colorado Springs for their first stop at the legendary Thrasher's Bar! We're stoked to be joined by Pueblo's own 3rd World Country and Western music group The Assault Shakers. See y'all out there

Hollow Down

At turns haunting, uplifting, and energizing, Hollow Down is not afraid to go wherever the wind takes them. Currently the powerhouse duo of Perry Brubaker on upright bass and Jon Howard on guitar, it is surprising to witness the full sound created by these two on acoustic instruments. Each show is an adventure, weaving elements of country, blues, jazz, and punk rock into a heady mix that can only be described as "Hollow Down". In summer of 2026, the band is excited to welcome friends Michael Strike (sax) and Nick Fairley (percussion) along for a run of Colorado shows.

The God Damn Band

The God Damn Band is an always morphing eclectic bonanza of what some would call a brand new version of the same old razzle dazzle. At times The God Damn Band is only Michael Str!ke playing too many instruments at once, or sometimes 100 members strong

The Assault Shakers

Traditionally Nontraditional banjo music for wanderers.
