Last Season’s Spring Fever Concerts:
 |
Sat. April 12 – Big Bad Voodoo Daddy 2013 marked the 20th Anniversary of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s remarkable arrival onto the music scene. They reminded the world that it was still cool to swing, big band style. Today the high-energy nine-piece ensemble continues the party and takes things to the next level with the release of RATTLE THEM BONES, which still urges their millions of fans worldwide to shake and move to their inimitable grooves while also expanding their horizons with new musical inspiration and influence. |
 |
Sun. April 13 – Gin Blossoms The Grammy nominated group, with their blend of Pop & Rock, became a musical force that helped define the sound of 90’s radio. With massive hits like “Follow You Down”, “Til I Hear It From You” and “Hey Jealousy,” they took the airwaves by siege and held MTV hostage with multi cross-over hits in 4 different radio formats. |
 |
Fri. April 18 – Yonder Mountain String Band The Colorado-based foursome has always played music by its own set of rules. Bending bluegrass, rock and countless other influences that the band cites, Yonder has pioneered a sound of their own. With their traditional lineup of instruments, the band may look like a traditional bluegrass band at first glance- but they’ve created their own music that transcends any genre. |
 |
Sat. April 19 – Blues Traveler Blues Traveler have released a total of nine studio albums, four of which have gone gold, three platinum and one six-times platinum. Over the course of their illustrious career, Blues Traveler have sold more than 10 million combined units worldwide, played over 2,000 live shows in front of more than 30 million people, and, in “Run-Around,” had the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history, which earned them a Grammy® for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. |

Sat. April 5 at The Village at Breckenridge – Yamn Yamn resides in Denver, CO. First and foremost their heart is in their live experience. One that scintillates the senses with courageous beats, grooves that cause instant and contagious grins to ripple across the undulating crowds, heart-warming peaks and head-banging rock riffs. This refreshed and revitalized Yamn is a band hungrier than ever to push the limits of progressive live-tronica. Price: $10.00 Location: TenMile Room at the Village at Breck |
Spring Fever Competitions

Celebrate Breck’s 30th Anniversary of snowboarding! Come check out the 4th annual Breck Throwback halfpipe competition, presented by Mountain Dew! Watch as pro snowboarders compete for a $17,000 prize purse and take on a two-fold challenge: competing in our 22-foot halfpipe and then a specially constructed 6-foot mini-pipe that is an exact replica of the first one built at Breck in 1985. Tricks no more than 540 degrees of rotation will be allowed, so each rider will have to get creative with straight airs, alley oops, huge slow spins, and hand plants. The competition takes place on the Superpipe at the top of Freeway in the morning, and at the Minipipe in lower Twister after lunch. This event has truly become a crowd favorite and is not to be missed!
Time: All day
Location: Superpipe @ Freeway (morning), Minipipe @ Peak 8 Base (afternoon)
