The Black Rose Acoustic Society

For over 30 years, The Black Rose Acoustic Society has been the home of live, handmade acoustic music in the Pikes Peak Region. We host twice-monthly concerts, jams, and classes through the year. Nestled in the tall Colorado pines, the down-home atmosphere of our log-cabin concert hall provides a family-oriented setting unsurpassed in friendliness and congeniality.

Colleen Orender

TICKET LINK

A touring Americana and blues artist for decades, Orender turns your hometown venues into smoldering 1930's Mississippi juke joints. She teamed up with Michael Davey (Martina McBride, Angie Aparo) in Nashville to produce a new sound many compare to Amy Winehouse, with Julie London’s Essence. While comparisons to Adele might be too easy, Orender instead conveys modern pop sensibilities with a bygone sultry bluesy sound that rekindles days of Muscle Shoals records and explosive horn sections.

“Nashville Recording Artist Colleen Orender's new music reminds me of a smoky blues club, with pop sensibilities and a touch of James Bond.” - NPR

“The boisterous Love Me Harder rewrites its own in-the-pocket vocals to a soundtrack of modern soul.” - Glide Magazine
