Thanksjibbing is a ski and snowboard rail jam competition featuring top regional riders and will be held in Snowmass Base Village on Friday, November 27. The event will be surrounded by a number of family activities and specials at Base Village restaurants.
Adding to the excitement, the first Bud Light Hi-Fi Concert of the season featuring Jamestown Revival, will take place on Saturday, November 28 at 6:30 p.m. in upper Gondola Plaza at the base of Aspen Mountain followed by a firework show. Jamestown Revival was born out of a friendship that spans over a decade. Jonathan Clay and Zach Chance grew up together in the small Texas town of Magnolia.
This Texas-bred/Los Angeles-based self-described “back-porch folk-rock” duo formed in 2011. The band takes inspiration from the likes of Creedence Clearwater Revival, Willie Nelson, the Everly Brothers, Guy Clark, and John Prine. Their latest album, Utah was recorded to tape in a log cabin in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah, and released in 2014.
The Bud Light Hi-Fi concert series will feature five free concerts throughout the ski and snowboard season on key weekends. Concerts are held in unique locations around Aspen Snowmass including on-hill stages and downtown streets.
