Acoustic guitarist Trace Bundy Performs Charity Concert at Fort Collins Nursery
Trace Bundy, affectionately known as the "Acoustic Ninja," is set to captivate audiences in Fort Collins, Colorado, on July 11, 2025. The concert, which will take place at the picturesque Fort Collins Nursery, transformed into the unique concert venue "The Rock Garden" for the event, promises a memorable evening under the stars by the banks of Dry Creek and the Cache la Poudre River.
This special event is part of the 10th annual Rock Garden Concert Series and serves as a benefit concert for The Vegetable Connection, a local nonprofit focused on food equity in Northern Colorado. All profits from ticket sales, auctions, and beverage sales will go directly to furthering The Vegetable Connection's mission.
Colorado artists Max Mackey and Christine Alice will open the show, treating attendees to heartfelt Americana and cinematic folk-pop sounds. Max Crumbly is also mentioned in some promotional materials as part of the supporting acts.
The concert will feature Bundy's unique looping and percussive slap techniques, showcasing his acoustic sound in a grand orchestral setting, as he collaborates with the Boulder Symphony for a live album release. One of his most popular compositions, "Joy & Sorrow," will be a highlight of the performance, embodying emotional contrast and evoking diverse reactions from audiences.
Bundy finds inspiration for his music from various sources, including nature, people, and quiet moments of reflection. His appreciation for intimate outdoor venues like Fort Collins Nursery is evident in the personal and connected energy he brings to his performances.
Audience members are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, and well-behaved pets on leashes are welcome. Food will be available from Schmickels Hot Dog Cart, and beverages including beer and wine will be provided by Odell Brewing Co. A live auction is also part of the event, with specific auction items yet to be announced.
This event offers an opportunity to give back while enjoying world-class music in a unique local setting. Tickets for the concert are currently sold out, but a waiting list is available in case additional tickets become available.
With a career that began with self-taught guitar playing, Bundy's journey as a musician has been marked by innovation and passion. His upcoming Fort Collins concert is eagerly anticipated, with destinations for upcoming tours expected to include new parts of the world.
