Dakota Blonde

No strangers to The Black Rose stage and very excited to be back, Dakota Blonde has been lovingly called “the darlings of the Front Range” and “the sweetest acoustic sound around.” The group is made up of Mary Huckins, Don Pinnella, and Tony Raddell; they met through their careers in music therapy, working with children and adolescents who are emotionally troubled.

Mary, Don, and Tony will be joined by the one and only Ernie Martinez. Ernie also comes from a large musical family and is a one-man band, playing guitar, banjo, mandolin, and dobro, just to name a few!

Performing originals and covers, Dakota Blonde's unique blend of heart, humor, authenticity, and contagious spirit makes for a magical night not to be missed!
