RADIO ROOM

7:00pm-10:00pm, 1310 Ute Ave

Susan Gibson is an award-winning songwriter who knows both the blessing of a song that travels farther than anyone could imagine and the weight of more...0 “the hard stuff” life hands out along the way. Nearly three decades after writing “Wide Open Spaces,” which became one of the biggest country songs of all time, Gibson has continued building a life on the road — traveling with dogs, songs, and a clear-eyed commitment to telling the truth. Her work carries the perspective of someone who has known grief, sobriety, family loss, van trouble, heartbreak, and healing, but still finds a way to leave listeners feeling wiser, lighter, and uplifted. On The Hard Stuff, Gibson writes about the things that hurt without getting lost in the darkness. Her songs are rooted in specificity, honesty, humor, and resilience — the kind of writing that turns raw grief into stories, scars, and connection. Whether performing in intimate listening rooms, teaching songwriting workshops, or aiming a lyric directly at the few people in the room who are truly listening, Gibson approaches music with intention and heart. Her gift is not just in writing songs that endure, but in making personal stories feel deeply shared. Show starts at 7, doors open at 6:30
