Desiderata

Friday Nights Live offers a vibrant FREE concert series of 24 Friday nights from May 2nd through October 10th.  Enjoy performances from national touring bands every Friday night on our Courtyard Stage, completely free of charge. These events are a collaboration with Pickin Productions, and each concert supports a local non-profit organization.

Desiderata reflects the laid back mountain environment where we formed in Durango Colorado. Starting out in the college scene, playing bars and house parties we had the freedom to experiment to find our own way to create the feel-good, captivating dance music we want to share. Blending a variety of sounds from Soul, Pop, Funk, Indie, Disco, and Rock leaves our sound without genre. The band doesn’t know how to describe it and will generally leave it up to you to decide.

There is a $10 parking fee for all day parking vehicles.  100% of this parking fee is donated to a local non-profit organization being featured that week.

We offer a FREE SHUTTLE from Paonia for every Friday Night show.  The shuttle begins downtown Paonia at 6pm and runs until 10pm.
