"Permutations of Red Pine"


September 2026



A Red Pine tree was planted at the corner of 212 Merry Street in the late 60s that evolved over the decades into a cooperative household. We are making it a place for comity and creativity; Clarity and the imagination; we change detritus of early 21st century late stage capitalism into art, shrine, paintings, music, sculptures, urban Permaculture and homesteading experiments. We appreciate the used, the worn out, ever crumbling and reassembling; as we all are all the time.

Ritt's songs are rough and smooth at the same time, acoustic roots rock with just enough mountain music in it to remind you he is from Kentucky. He is joined by his trio, musicians he has played, recorded, and consorted with over the last fifteen years.

After sifting through the legions of performing guitar players reviewers agree that Bob Pellegrino may well be Colorado's finest blues guitarist. After more than two decades of history playing Denver's blues music scene - including stints as lead guitarist for some of Denver's most acclaimed bands - Bob holds fast to his legacy by entertaining traditional rhythm and blues music lovers all over the nation.

Pellegrino's authentic renditions of blues classics, and his original compositions recently earned him a place in the Chelsea Theatre Works (Boston, MA) 2005 production of "The Grapes of Wrath"; where he performed live. His original composition "Somewhere West of the Mississippi" - from the Pellegrino CD, was featured in the original score.

If you want to know what traditional blues really sounds like you simply must see Bob Pellegrino perform!
