Joe Uveges has meandered the path of quiet musical anonymity on Colorado’s front range for more than 18 years now. Raised a farm kid in Schoharie, New York, pummeled by liberal academics at Union College and Catholic University, a grizzled veteran of bar bands and coffeehouses, he should be a burned out skeleton of a man playing Allman Brother covers, tipping lukewarm Coors from a can, and lamenting broken marriages and illegitimate kids.

He is not. He is, however, happily married and fairly successfully raising 2 kids in a small 1940’s style home near downtown Colorado Springs while touring the country doing 140 shows a year and promoting 8 CD’s, all of which are . . . in a word . . . brilliant. Currently he plays shows with Susan Rissman and KJ Braithwaite (THE RUB), with Charlie Hall, and also does many shows each year as a solo artist at churches, festivals, and house concerts.

Summer Concerts in the Glen offer great music and an idyllic garden that is a perfect place for families and friends to gather over picnics. The concerts, which began as a way to extend the church’s commitment to building community through music, are free to all, although freewill offerings are accepted.

The 2022 season began on July 6 and continues each Wednesday through August 10. Bring a picnic (no alcohol), lawn chairs or blankets, and relax with some of the best music around! Concerts will move inside in case of rain. We’re grateful to our sponsors who—with you—make this possible!
