This year Cowboy Poetry will be in conjunction with the Brenn Hill Concert. Amateur poets welcome.
Darrell HoldenDarrell Holden is a proud 5th-generation rancher from the West Desert of Utah. He started writing cowboy poetry in 1983 as a freshman in high school. It’s been a way to tell the story of his heritage. And it’s been therapy. He started reciting his poems at the encouragement of his wife and daughter. The very best part of this journey is when someone is touched to tears, or their side hurts laughing, because they’ve felt what he has written. Fierce advocate for ranchers and agriculture. Writes on occasion for RANGE Magazine. Member of the Utah State Cattlemen’s Association board. Married to Angie and they have two exceptional kids and one outstanding son-in-law. Happiest on horseback where cattle are, and people aren’t.
