DEREK VANDER HORST BAND
THE WOODCELLAR (EVERGREEN, CO)
*****
Derek showed up at a Woodcellar Open-Mic and absolutely crushed it...so we hit him up for a gig with us. On Thursday, 6/27, Derek and his band will be gracing our stage with a fantastic night of "folk, Americana, and story-telling music", and we're ecstatic.
Derek's Bio:
'Stage 4 Head and Neck Cancer and losing his voice from severe radiation and chemo treatments set the stage for Derek Vanderhorst’s long recovery and the return to his passion of music. His journey to reclaim and reshape his life at the age of 50 set the stage for his raw cathartic and humorous storytelling style.
After forging a successful Hollywood career as a sought-after musician, sound designer, and re-recording mixer for film and television–including the Academy Award-nominated No Country for Old Men, as well as Hidden Figures, and The Eyes of Tammy Faye– Derek is now pouring his renewed passion and dedication into music of his own. He’s known as the “go to” mixer for blending dialogue and music to create powerful and emotive film soundtracks– and these skills translate effortlessly on his albums.
Derek was first introduced to music at the age of 5 with piano lessons but embraced guitar, mandolin and banjo in his teens, touring with the bands Leaf and The Rosemarys, before being managed as a solo artist in the 90s by Les Garland (Co-founder of MTV and VH-1). These experiences led him to L.A. where he found his way to the film world and his success in that realm, but also led to him putting down his guitar for 20 years.
Now with a post-cancer outlook on life– and a renewed dedication to music and songwriting– Derek hopes to inspire others to find their voice and relentlessly pursue their passions. “Anything is possible—I didn’t think I’ve ever be able to sing again let alone release a solo album. Life is short and relationships matter. Be grateful for everything that we have and pursue your passions and dreams at any age or stage in your life.'
