Strings has played numerous concerts in Colorado over the past few years -- and he is playing this weekend at his Renewal festival in Buena Vista -- but he's never played at a venue as large as Ball Arena.

The three back-to-back concerts in Denver will be in January (Jan. 24-26). The tickets go on sale on Oct. 11 at 10 a.m.

Strings' brand new album is called Highway Prayers. In the years since the pandemic he has attracted hardcore fans that follow him on tour. CBS News called it "a Deadhead-esque following typically associated with jam bands."
