After kicking off what some are calling the Fare Thee Well Tour with two nights at Red Rocks, it was clear walking up the ramps that there was a sustained energy ready to boil over on Saturday night. After three consecutive late summers on the rocks, Furthur brought out all of the tricks on this run, and finally decided to not only give us the best of, like they had in previous years, but also lots of songs they’d never dusted off in Colorado.

Let's call a spade a spade—this is the Hipster Sound in its purest form, for better or worse. Arp’s More is British Invasion presented by The Strokes, with a touch of “Penny Lane” derivative on keys.

BEATS ANTIQUE and iconic Primus leader Les Claypool have formally summoned "Beelzebub."   The new single from the trio merges a tribal bounce with pulsating dance energy and devilishly dynamic playing from Claypool.

Lifestyle Upgrade Entertainment is proud to present Horn of Plenty, the new album by Atlanta's Noot d' Noot (Shakedown Records).  The 8-piece outfit has been redefining parties with their undefinable sound for the past 6 years, and this latest record sees the band rocketing their spaced-out dance grooves into the deep reaches of the Heavens.

I have walked so far, so far...I’ll concede, I suppose it’s easy to get a little jaded to old-hand refinement these days, what with the driving influx of fresh bubblegum content fit for chewing in three-minute stretches. For those artists—including our own Susanna and her most recent partner Ensemble neoN—who dive into deep cuts as a rule and not an exception, the present state of the union can be suffocating.
