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.

Jeremy Facknitz & David Siegel

TICKET LINK

Jeremy Facknitz has been delighting audiences with his unique brand of high-energy theatrical folk-rock-jazz for nearly 30 years. He's a THREE-time finalist in the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Songwriting Competition (Lyle Lovitt, Steve Earle, and Nanci Griffith are TWO-time finalists) and has successfully made performing his "day-job" for over a decade, touring the U.S. and Canada. Led by his Mount Rushmore of musical influences (Billy Joel, James Taylor, Elvis Costello and Ben Folds), his music is a throwback to when singer-songwriters weren't afraid to turn it up loud, look you in the eye, and play more than the same tired four chords, “embodying the soul of an old-time troubadour, but bitten by a radioactive rockstar.” John Apice of American Highways says, "This is all far above the ordinary... A good time is guaranteed for all," while John Barlass writes, "Jeremy Facknitz is indeed a major talent – and I can guarantee like nothing you’ll have ever heard before." He’ll be joined on the Black Rose stage by violin virtuoso David Siegel (Grass It Up, Mango Fan Django).
