CORAL CREEK is a nationally acclaimed Colo-Caribbean Newgrass band featuring the original music of Chris Thompson.  Inspired by the islands and the mountains alike, CORAL CREEK conjures a unique vibe, delivering big sounds and high-energy shows that appeal to audiences across the newgrass, rock and jamband spectrum.  Drawing influence from legendary guitarists Jerry Garcia & Tony Rice, don’t be surprised when CORAL CREEK launches into a second line jam with tenor saxophone soaring over organ swells and a rolling banjo.  Listen close and you might even hear some steel pan and coqie frogs.
