Trashmoon Collective Key Words

Trash Moon Collective is a Hot House West program devoted to growing and supporting Utah’s bluegrass, old time, and roots music community. We provide and promote weekly and monthly events—from dances, to jams, concerts, and workshops—that support and build our community. If you've ever wanted to dust off the ol’ banjo, meet new pickers, or even just find more live acoustic music, follow us, spread the word, and join our Trash Moon community!

I have made so many new friends at the Trashmoon events and have had many musically affirming experiences! I'm certain that I'm a better musician because of it.

What Hot House West and Trash Moon Collective are doing is extremely unique and important for the preservation of Authentic American Music. We need to support this growing community at all costs!

Xavier

Square dance night with the Trash Moon Collective is one of the most joyful things I’ve ever experienced! Anything that lets me be silly, listen to live music, and have a great time with friends is a wonderful thing.

Sydney

Violin was such an important part of my life when I was younger, but for a long time, I didn't have anyone to play with, and my violin mostly sat in its case. Trash Moon Collective has enabled me to reconnect with my instrument and with the joy of making music in community. I'm so thankful to have discovered such a welcoming environment to get back to playing!
