The show marks their debut in Southwest Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>The performance is part of their 10th national tour.<\/p>\n<p>They booked the Dolores show after reaching out to venues along their route.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019ll be our first time ever in Southwest Colorado and we\u2019re really excited to check it out,\u201d Kelly told <em id=\"emphasis-248aff5c258678430bd64d8aa72c24dd\">The Journal.<\/em> \u201cWe play to anyone, anywhere and we love checking out the nooks and crannies of the country and enjoying the smaller towns. When we were booking this tour we had to connect Minot, North Dakota to Bisbee, Arizona, so I reached out to a bunch of places in between and Dolores got back to us first.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moon and Kelly met four years ago at an open mic in the Catskill Mountains in New York, where their shared passion for music sparked an immediate connection.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video wp-block-embed-youtube naviga-video-embed\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UtwKALl-6es\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a pretty wild ride. We\u2019re two solo musicians who play original music,\u201d Kelly said. \u201cCaswyn usually starts off the night with his American rock music with old country undertones, then he steps away and I play my spacey folk rock \u2019n\u2019 roll with Appalachian mountain twists. There are washboard and kazoo occurrences with the sounds of our guitars and my Moog Sub 37. Folks may witness dancing, kicking and moments of loud howls and deep singing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Both musicians incorporate kazoos into their set, which Kelly said they offer at their merchandise table for free or a $3 donation.<\/p>\n<p>When not touring, they host open mics and perform at festivals and community events.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just hope to encourage folks to go check out their local music scenes wherever they are,\u201d Kelly said. \u201cI believe open mics save lives and if you got a song in your soul, go sing it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They also document their adventures on their YouTube channel, \u201cCouple of Wanderers,\u201d where they post daily tour vlogs highlighting life on the road, local music scenes and small businesses. Kelly has also recently released new music videos on her Faith Kelly Art YouTube channel.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, contact the brewery at (970) 882-4677 or visit www.doloresriverbrewery.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>are on the road for their 10th tour<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16330,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[1060,364,44,28,60,559,29],"naviga_topic":[],"class_list":["post-16329","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-arts-entertainment","tag-community","tag-dolores","tag-headlines","tag-montezuma-county","tag-music","tag-newsletter"],"acf":[],"author_name":"dh_admin","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16329","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16329"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16329\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20140,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16329\/revisions\/20140"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16330"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16329"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16329"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16329"},{"taxonomy":"naviga_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/naviga_topic?post=16329"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
