The Mountain Acoustic Music Association (MAMA) promotes and provides acoustic music venues for the Ute Pass area. MAMA's 2010 concert season is wekk underway having featured wonderful performances by Phil Volan and Joleen Bell at our April show and by Willson and McKee at our May show.

The featured performers on June 18 will be Wayne Long with Arthetta Long. On July 16 we will be featuring Ted Newman and on August 20 we will feature Russ Alvey.

There is a new schedule for MAMA's all-inclusive acoustic jam in Woodland Park. The MAMA jam is now held once monthly on the Monday immediately following a MAMA Friday night show. So that will be on the Monday that follows the third Friday of the month. It is held from 7 to 9PM. The location for the Monday night jam is at the People's National Bank building at 651 Scott Ave. in Woodland Park, in the community meeting room. That's the bank building across highway 24 from McDonlald's. For more information please see our website, as shown below. MAMA also sponsors a weekly open mic session on Tuesday evenings from 6:00 to 8:30 at the Jo Mama restaurant in Woodland Park. Jo Mama is located in the Gold Hill South shopping center in Woodland Park on highway 24, behind Wendy's. Many MAMA volunteers and board members perform regularly at local venues in Woodland Park. Please get out and support local musicians. MAMA volunteers and board members are also the driving force behind the internet radio show, SideTrax, on TellerNetCast.com. SideTrax focuses on music in the Pike's Peak region.

MAMA’s regular concert events are the third Friday of every month, from April through November. Our shows are held at the Ute Pass Cultural Center (UPCC) in Woodland Park at 7:00 in the evening. You can stay up to date on MAMA happenings by checking our website, www.mountainacoustic.org.
