Little Church in the Pines Concert Series is a semi-monthly, non-religious community event held in the old wooden church in Salina, Colorado, about nine miles from Boulder. Built in 1908, Little Church in the Pines is listed on the National Registry under mining and tourism resources for Boulder County.
The wood frame church is part of a small cluster of buildings remaining from Salina's late 19th and early 20th century mining boom. The front worship room has wood-lined walls and ceiling, which make for excellent acoustics. The non-profit, family-friendly concert series is community-run by local volunteers who are committed to bringing quality live music to this truly unique venue.
Past performers at Little Church in the Pines include Bruce Molsky, Boulder Acoustic Society, the Two-Man Gentleman Band, Heidi Clare & Ed Snodderly, the Hudson Super 6, KC Groves & David Long, the Colorado Playboys, Darol Anger, the Stairwell Sisters and Mollie O’Brien. All shows are unamplified and seating is general admission with great views from every pew. We reserve the front row for children under 12 and host a dessert pot luck in the back room during setbreaks.
