Deeply affecting with a vintage quality, The Haunted Windchimes create the perfect soundtrack for the imagery presented in the FAC's Resilience exhibitions. Their sound draws from traditional folk and American roots music with hauntingly beautiful vocal harmonies and an astonishing assortment of stringed instruments including the banjo, ukulele, guitar, and mandolin.
In celebration of their latest album, Out With The Crow, each concert ticket holder will receive a complimentary copy of the new CD.
"The Windchimes are, beyond a reasonable doubt, one of Colorado's most significant musical treasures." -Adam Leech, Colorado Springs Independent

About the FAC Theatre Company
The award-winning Fine Arts Center Theatre Company produces an annual season of musicals, comedies and dramas, like Beauty and the Beast, The Full Monty and Sweeney Todd. Plus, the FAC hosts film festivals, music, dance and more.
“The FAC proves that nobody, but nobody, does musicals like they do musicals to our south. Every show I’ve attended there in six years has been sold out in its now gorgeously refurbished, 400-seat SaGaJi Theatre. To anyone in Denver who wonders whether it’s worth the drive--don’t wonder.” – Denver Post
