Root 40 Music Fest 2012

7 Day/Night Event -Live Music & Learning Featuring Colorado Bands & Musicians

From Bob Dylan to Judy Collins, Colorado’s music scene is rooted in the rich cultural history of Upper Colfax.  Finally, a musical celebration of the Colfax musical legacy will launch this spring with the introduction of The Upper Colfax Root 40 MusicFest- aseven day music event designed to entertain, enlighten, educate and encourage new participation in Colorado’s music and performance community. 

The Upper Colfax Root 40 MusicFest will be held along historic US Route 40 in the bars, restaurants and music venues that featured well known musicians early in their careers, as well as the next generation of Colorado talent.  Launching with a free Music EXPO at The Fillmore on April 22, the week will feature local and national speakers from the music industry during the day and live music each night.  A portion of event proceeds will benefit neighboring school music programs.
