String bands occupy Silver Moon Brewing Things Bend has no shortage of: Bicycle races. Beer places. People who believe their day-to-day life is superior to most folks’ vacations. And fans of acoustic music rooted in folk and bluegrass that veers slightly from those genre’s traditional tropes.

of people. Exhibit A comes Thursday, when Head for the Hills and the Dead Winter Carpenters form one of the finest string-band bills to hit
Bend since … well, since last week when Silver Moon hosted the Water Tower Bucket Boys and Moon Mountain Ramblers.
Colorado’s Head for the Hills have been here a bunch and mine a slightly more traditional bluegrass vein. California’s Dead Winter Carpenters have been here a few times and do things a little more roots-rock style, with a touch of swing. Both excel at creating warm, melodic woodentop jams for the soul. Head for the Hills, with The Dead Winter Carpenters; 8:30 p.m. Thursday; $13 plus fees in advance, available at www .bendticket.com, $15 at the door; Silver Moon Brewing & Taproom, 24 N.W.
