The vibrant city of Fort Collins is gearing up for an unforgettable evening as internationally acclaimed guitarist Trace Bundy, affectionately known as the "Acoustic Ninja," takes the stage at the Fort Collins Nursery's Rock Garden on July 11, 2025. This concert, part of the 10th annual Rock Garden Concert Series, promises to be an incredible experience, offering a unique blend of music, local culture, and philanthropy [1][3][5].

The event serves as a fundraiser for The Vegetable Connection, a local nonprofit dedicated to food equity in Northern Colorado. Bundy is a strong supporter of the organization's mission to improve access to fresh, healthy food in the community [2]. This acoustic benefit event, featuring Trace Bundy alongside Colorado artists Max Mackey and Christine Alice, promises to be a captivating musical journey [1][2][5].

Bundy's music is intentionally devoid of lyrics, instead aiming to evoke emotions through his intricate acoustic guitar work [1]. His innovative looping, intricate fingerstyle playing, and emotionally rich instrumentals transform a single acoustic guitar into a symphony of sound. One of his favourite songs to perform is "Joy & Sorrow," due to its emotional contrast [6].

Fort Collins Nursery, a garden center that doubles as an intimate open-air concert venue during the series, will host this special event [3][5]. The show will run from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM, and it's open to all ages, including well-behaved pets [4].

Trace Bundy's musical journey began with self-taught guitar skills and developing his signature looping techniques and percussive slaps [7]. He appreciates intimate outdoor venues like Fort Collins Nursery for their personal and connected energy [8]. In fact, his nickname "Acoustic Ninja" originated from a playful article published by the Rocky Mountain Collegian in 2003 [9].

Bundy and his wife are mindful of their food choices and support organizations that address food insecurity [10]. In line with this, the proceeds from this concert will support The Vegetable Connection's efforts towards food equity and community health, aligning with their mission to make fresh vegetables and nutritious food accessible to underserved populations [2].

Bundy hinted at upcoming tours that will take him to new parts of the world [11]. Fort Collins can expect a few surprises during his concert, making it an event not to be missed. This community-focused event is shaping up to be an appealing outing for supporters of food justice and live acoustic music in Fort Collins.
