what's happening 18 movies 5 thurs Sunrise 5:37am; Sunset 8:58pm Av High 80; Av Low 51 FILM Ophelia’s Place Thursday Oakhurst is a nationally acclaimed bluegrass-ish quintet from Denver, Colo., that’s as versatile as it is original. This band creates mood-shifting roots-rock Americana, weaving together modern and old-timey infl uences from Yonder Mountain String Band to John Hartford. Having broken onto the national scene by way of festival touring, Oakhurst is part hoedown and part heartbreak when it comes to a live performance. This is a group that can gig to any occasion, and it has been touring hard for the last six years straight, bringing music to the masses. Oh yeah, and the band has released yet another album to complement the other fi ve it’s cranked out over the years. Movie Matinee, 3:30pm, see www. opheliasplace.net for info.
