Denver — Multi-instrumentalist John McEuen is a founding member of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and over his 30 years of worldwide travel, he has flown 2 million miles and driven a million miles, done more than 10,000 interviews and appeared on more than 300 television performances, produced numerous television shows, and, as an interviewer, has interviewed diverse personalities from Malcolm Forbes to Emmylou Harris. He's also played more than 5,000 shows around the world. With the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, he has made more than 30 albums, including the platinum-selling Will The Circle Be Unbroken, which was instigated by John and conceived by the band's manager/producer (and John's brother), Bill McEuen, in 1971. Indisputably "one of the most important recordings ever come out of Nashville" (Rolling Stone, 1972), it is recognized today as a country music milestone and integral part of Americana history. In 2004 Zagat survey dubbed it "the most important album in Country Music."

McEuen will perform for two special evenings (Fri and Sat, January 11 and 12, 2008) at Swallow Hill and will be joined by a prior Nitty Gritty Dirt Band member, John Cable. Adding to the fun between the music these two "old road friends" will sing and play their favorite NGDB songs and talk about the Russian trip and other NGDB foibles. John will spotlight many NGDB songs from the early recordings as well as from the Circle albums. Ex-NGDB member Warren Floyd also stop by for this unusual evening and an unannounced special guest may drop in. Prior to spending a few years in the Dirt Band, Cable was a principal member and lead singer of the 1970s Colorado group, Colours.
