The Big Onions are a culmination of the three original band members who bring diverse backgrounds and talents; a funk/blues guitarist, a jazz influenced drummer from Nebraska and a rock bassist from Colorado. The group formed under the auspices of open mic night at Frisco’s Back Country Brewery in 2000/2001. Forming a power blues/funk trio, the Onions cruised through numerous local gigs and clubs in Summit County for a number of years in the infancy of the now thriving local music scene. The band added a fourth Onion and keyboardist after a combined gig in Estes Park and remained a four-piece blues/funk band ever since. Stretching the boundaries of the 70’s music genre, the band features the early sounds of Hendrix, The Stones, Santana and Buffalo Springfield. Inclusive of later 70’s music, the Big Onions perform songs from Led Zeppelin, Allman Brothers, Little Feat, and ZZ Tops.

A rising force out of Lexington, Kentucky, this band led by Joslyn Hampton comes out swinging on their sophomore album, ready to uplift and inspire through their singular and stirring soul-funk sound. 2019’s critically acclaimed debut album made them a favorite headliner at regional clubs and music festivals. After a grueling and relentless tour schedule, which saw them supporting Tower of Power at New York’s Sony Hall and Tyler Childers at Colorado’s legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre, the band is back with Bona Fide, a sonically and emotionally charged record that captures their breathtaking live energy as well as their humanity.
