Details

After 41 years in the internationally acclaimed and Hall-of-Fame bluegrass band, Hot Rize, and 34 years hosting eTown, Nick Forster continues to bring people together through music. He is bringing his brand of “guilt-free gospel” to his hometown of Boulder, Colorado, with a recurring, community sing-along paired with poetry readings, storytelling, and good vibes.

Nick began hosting monthly Hippy Bluegrass Church “services” at eTown Hall in 2019, leading participants through energetic and thoughtful gatherings backed by an amazing cast of bluegrass musicians.

Start the day together with friends and other music lovers to sing songs like "I’ll Fly Away," "A Beautiful Life," "I Saw the Light," "Angel Band," and other staples from the genre.

The four tenets of the Hippy Bluegrass Faith are: forgiveness, compassion, integrity and humor.

Keep an eye out for a special announcement. As part of eTown’s 35th anniversary celebration on April 22, Nick and Helen will soon welcome a well-known guest interviewer for a rare onstage conversation where the tables turn and they reflect on the story of eTown.
