Cue the sigh of satisfaction — Bon Iver has declared that they are returning to Red Rocks this year. Justin Vernon’s influential indie-darling of a job will hit the monoliths that are iconic on September 3, 2019. The tour as a whole only spans four dates beginning in Missoula, Montana on August 31 and concluding at the Gorge Amphitheatre on September 6, fitting at the Denver and a Vail stop in-between. Joining the band for their Red Rocks date, the exceptional Sharon Van Etten will take on the opening responsibilities. The coming stop follows a somewhat ill-advised stop at the 1stBank Center in 2017 and will be his first at the amphitheater since 2012.
Bon Iver’s digital stylings. Beginning with his pivotal debut album For Emma, Forever Ago, where the near legend has Justin Vernon trying to escape the temptations of his life by holing himself up in his father’s isolated cottage, hunting for food, abandoning his normal songwriting structure and emerging with the critically acclaimed piece of work. Since that time, Justin Vernon has released two albums, 2011’s self-titled and 2016’s 22, A Million. The world still lives and breathes although he s barricaded in a cottage. As such, seeing Bon Iver in an outdoor place as mesmerizing as Red Rocks is second to none.
