Community Concert Hall and Alpine Bank offer free summer concert series in Buckley Park
Durango, CO – Local and Nashville-based country singer/songwriter Tyller Gummersall with the Tyller Gummersall Band will continue the Alpine Bank-Community Concert Hall “Concerts at the Park” series on Thursday, June 25, 2015 at Durango’s Buckley Park, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
A La Plata County, Colo. native, Tyller Gummersall began his career at age 8 performing Hank William’s “Hey Good Lookin’” at the La Plata County Fair talent contest. That same year, Gummersall, looking toward a future career, began lessons with his music mentor and national flat pick champion Gary Cook of the Bar D Wranglers. By the time Gummersall was 14, he was working with respected Los Angeles voice coach Raven Kane Campbell. Gummersall recorded his Beer and a Rose album at the special Welcome to 1979 analog studio in Nashville, Tenn., with his “dream band” featuring band members of his music heroes Ryan Adams and John Prine. In early 2015, Gummersall released the EP Kiss Me with his most recent trio, and work is underway on a new album including Nashville super musicians.
