Award-winning singer Rooster Blackspur will be performing in Hillsboro on Sunday June 4th along with her band Wilderness. The Hillsboro Community Center (HCC) sponsors concerts throughout the year for the benefit of the community and to support local and regional talent. Rooster has performed at HCC in the past and always entertains with passion, original songs, and a heart wide open to life.
Per her website: “Rooster Blackspur is an award winning singer-songwriter and story-teller who has had her big and undeniable voice since she was a small kid singing to the ravens from her hand-hewn tree fort in the Alaskan wilderness. Blackspur is a bolt of lightning live on stage and has been capturing audiences of every kind all over the nation for the past 13 years.
From festivals, concert halls, and wilderness shows, her fans form a community of people who find themselves in the lyrics of a singing pioneer who’s message is to brave your own personal wilderness..live a courageous life..and to be your own strange wild self.”
A recognized entertainer throughout the west, she’s been described as “…full of Jangle and covered in Dust…” by Vortex magazine and was honored as “2021 New Mexico Music Awards Singer-Songwriter of the Year.”
The Hillsboro Community Center is located at 316 Elenora St. The suggested donation for this event — which begins at 5:30 — is $20. Money from this event goes primarily to benefit the artist with the remainder going to the HCC.
