This summer, the heart of the SAR campus turns into an outdoor cocktail lounge and live music venue for Music at Dusk. On two special evenings, guests are invited to relax in a beautiful outdoor setting, stroll the grounds, and experience live traditional New Mexican music.
Round Mountain

This is original world folk music with strong influences and instruments from traditional global traditions. West African kora and Irish bouzouki are played along with guitar, accordion, and a dobro strung to be played clawhammer-style, elevated by upright bass. Round Mountain's music most specifically references traditional music from West Africa and Appalachia, New Orleans, Ireland, the Balkans and Turkey, yet is anchored in a connection to the land and culture of their native New Mexico.
