Laurel Canyon
On Saturday September 19th, the Music of Laurel Canyon featuring Buffalo Rome takes the stage featuring Kevin Douglas (Bendorf), a Lancaster, WI, native. Nicknamed “the Crosby, Stills, and Nashville of the digital age,” Buffalo Rome blends the earthy feel of the 1970s West Coast country-rock scene with a modern Americana sound. In The Music of Laurel Canyon, the group celebrates one of the most influential musical communities of the 1960s and early ’70s, paying tribute to the songs and artists that defined an era, including Joni Mitchell, Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Joni Mitchell, The Mamas and the Papas, and The Eagles.
The Music of Laurel Canyon is part of a 3-event Rock & Roots Series celebrating the enduring artistry of American music traditions, from mountain harmonies and bluegrass storytelling to the folk-rock sounds that shaped a generation.
Tickets are available online at FiveFlagsCenter.com and in person at the Five Flags Center box office, open Thursdays and Fridays from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
