Breckenridge Backstage Theater introduces The Great Divide, a new folk inspired original musical that brings the spirit of early Colorado to life. Set against the rugged rise of Breckenridge, this workshop production features local musicians and explores the trials of gold mining, long winters and a nation torn by Civil War. As tensions rise, one truth remains: a house divided against itself cannot stand. Breckenridge and Colorado stake their claim in the shaping of The United States of America.

About

Brendan o'hara

AKA THE “One Man Band"

Brendan O'Hara performs with guitar, keyboard, and vocals using live-looping technology to create a sound as modernly unique as it is refreshingly throwback. Often referred to as a “One Man Band”- Brendan beatboxes while strumming his guitar, then plays the piano while creating bass-lines and sound scapes to then layer raw reverberating and delay heavy vocals to realize a sound much bigger than just a singer/songwriter- though the songwriting aims to be strong enough to stand on its own acoustically!
