Big Richard features Bonnie Sims on mandolin, Joy Adams on cello, Emma Rose on bass
and guitar, and Eve Panning on fiddle. The four musicians came together in late 2021
to form the band, which gained quick notoriety for their jaw-dropping virtuosity;
playfully irreverent stage banter; stunning four-part harmony; imaginative arrangements;
a refreshingly eclectic repertoire; and a healthy dose of lady rage. After selling
out all of their club shows, Big Richard quickly started confirming festival appearances
across America. The quartet has issued three singles and an album, 鈥淟ive from Telluride.鈥�
鈥淭his is quite the super group,鈥� quips PAS Director Ronna Kalish. 鈥淚 am a big fan
of all-women bands, but these gals top it all,鈥� states Kalish. 鈥淭hey are amazing singers
and top-notch instrumentalists, with strong female humor. I would call this concert
the 鈥楧irector鈥檚 Choice!鈥欌��
The show also will be live streamed on the PAS Facebook and YouTube pages, with links
to those sites through the PAS website, nmt.edu/pas. Sponsors of the show are IRIS-PASSCAL,
Desert Herbals, Mine Country Radio, Bob & Kathy Markwell, the Deborah Treder Memorial,
NMT SGA and KUNM-FM.
