on acoustic guitar and vocals. Cindy has bluegrass royalty running in her blood!
She has been in demand as a longtime bluegrass performer and instructor all over the country.
My next choice was Bob Fairchild on acoustic bass and vocals. Bob adds a power
vocal and stage presence that he has perfected like nobody else!"

Cowboy Poets - Sunday 8/16/2026 - 4:30 to 5:00 p.m. - Silver Saddle Ranch, 4901 Carson River Road
This year we feature three Cowboy Poets at Silver Saddle Ranch: Dennis Golden,
Larry Marinel, and Jo Foster.
Jo Foster and Larry Marinel are outdoor enthusiasts with a love for Nevada and
Cowboy Poetry. The Cowboy Gathering in Elko is a favorite destination of theirs for inspiration
and entertainment. Jo Foster is a recently-minted cowboy poet. In 2016, she retired
as an ecology professor from Wartburg College, located in Waverly, Iowa. However,
her heart called her back to Nevada where her family lived since 1969. She and her
husband Larry became fans of cowboy poetry at their introduction to this genre
in Elko, NV. After seeing how much fun Larry had creating his poems, she decided to
join in too.
Dennis Golden is a Producer with Golden Film Productions, producing documentaries
and educational videos addressing environmental and political issues threatening those
who live and work in the rural West.
