The Sisters Folk Festival Winter Concert Series kicks off tonight with a show from Anchorage bluegrass/Americana quintet, Bearfoot.

The band, which fuses traditional roots music influences with modern country flavors, is quickly on the rise over the past couple years. Part of this is due to the fact that the band won the Telluride Bluegrass Festival band competition — one of the highest honors a burgeoning acoustic act can receive.

The show kicks off at 7pm tonight (Saturday 2/6) at the Sisters High School Auditorium.
