The Infamous Stringdusters

This summer you’ll find the ‘Dusters in the mountains and by the sea.

We’re excited to announce our 2013 American Rivers Tour. In August we’ll be traversing the Rockies to play shows in many of the great river towns of the Mountain West. We’ll start at the Depot in Salt Lake City and move through Colorado, Washington, Idaho, and Montana before finishing at the Grand Targhee Bluegrass Festival in Wyoming. Highlights include a two-night run at the State Bridge in Bond, CO. The entire run will celebrate the 40th anniversary of American Rivers, a non-profit organization working to protect and restore the nation’s rivers and streams.

But before we head to the mountains, though, you can catch us at the beach. Our six-show Atlantic Beach Tour moves up the Eastern Seaboard from Charleston to Asbury Park in July.
