UCRA Mountain String Band
We kick off our outdoor summer music series with UCRA Mountain String Ensemble – a dynamic trio from Rossland BC, blending bluegrass, folk, and rock into their own distinctive sound. Their music features heartfelt melodies and engaging rhythms, with Ian Johnston delivering powerful guitar work and soulful vocals. Dale Green brings energy to the stand-up bass and adds rich vocal harmonies, while Brian Taylor contributes intricate mandolin and guitar parts, enhancing the band’s overall texture.
Ranging from reflective ballads to upbeat tracks that get audiences moving, UCRA is influenced by groups like Trampled by Turtles, The Decemberists, and The Avett Brothers, UCRA Mountain String Band combines traditional roots with a modern edge.
Whether performing in intimate venues or on festival stages, they focus on creating memorable experiences and connecting with their audience through authentic and lively performances.
