Music on the Green: John Fog and Denton Turner

Join Strings Music Festival every Wednesday morning this summer for their weekly free concert series, co-presented by the Yampa River Botanic Park. With concerts lasting just 45 minutes, it’s the perfect way to enjoy a summer morning.

To kick-off the 2024 Music on the Green Series, we have John Fog and Denton Turner! Denton and his standup bass have been a staple of the Steamboat Springs music scene for years. He was a founding member of the Old Town Pickers and Buffalo Commons, toured with Jeremy Garrett of the Infamous Stringdusters, and has graced acclaimed festival stages such as Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Winter Wondergrass, Baja Wondergrass, Yarmony Grass, and Palisade Bluegrass Festival.

John picked up the guitar while working on a ranch 30 miles outside Pinedale, Wyoming. There was no electricity and few distractions, so he dedicated the evening hours to learning. He now plays a blend of covers and originals in the Americana vein.
