Cannons and Vandelux to perform at new Vail Summer Sessions event
Free live music event will be at Eagle’s Nest, Gondola One base area
Vail Mountain recently announced a new live summer music event Vail Summer Sessions, taking place July 25-28. The new music event features a mountaintop performance by Cannons, a popular indie pop band, on Friday, July 26 from 5–6:30 p.m. Performances will also include Vandelux, a multi-instrumentalist, producer and vocalist, at the Gondola One base area on Saturday, July 27 from 5–6:30 p.m.
“Getting the chance to perform on Vail Mountain feels like a once in a lifetime experience,” said Cannons. “We look forward to hearing how the mountain will shape the songs we perform and what that listening experience will be like for our fans.”
“There’s nothing better than performing outside,” said Vandelux. “When the sun is reflecting off the mountains and people are dancing — that’s where I want to be.”
“We are excited to welcome people to the mountain through music,” said Beth Howard, vice president and chief operating officer of Vail Mountain.
