Old Shoe is excited to announce their upcoming 2013 spring tour dates. The Chicago folk rock band will be playing their first shows in Colorado on the tour and wrap up their spring by playing Summer Camp and Wakarusa.

Soulive drummer and founder Alan Evans is a musical force to be reckoned with. More than 15 years as an integral member of the jazz-fusion group wasn’t enough for him.

This year, after hearing some friends preach Twiddle to me every opportunity they got, I caught the first chance to see them without having to go to SnowBall Music Festival.

On Friday, March 15, the iconic Philadelphia group, G. Love & Special Sauce, graced Boulder with their presence.  G. Love and Special Sauce (comprised of Garret “G. Love” Dutton, Jim “Jazz” Prescott, and Jeff “Houseman” Clemens) is known for their unique R&B musical dialect.  A mix of an unseasonably warm evening and budding spring fever brought an energetic and eclectic crowd to see this trio play their hearts out.

Our Colorado music scene is bursting at the seams with diversity. Whether you love jam bands, folk and bluegrass or bass heavy dubstep, you can easily find your niche in our music community. SnowBall Music Festival brings us music fanatics together to celebrate that spirit of music, love and community in the high elevations of the Rocky Mountains. This year’s 3rd annual SnowBall Music Festival took place in Winter Park.

From the depths of the American indie-folk movement hails the vast and heart-warming musical journey known as The Herbert Bail Orchestra. Based in the understanding of emotion and deception, this uniquely talented group transcends the modern portrayal of performance with utmost lust for the craft.

Out today, Tuesday, March 12 via Ultra Music, deadmau5 & Imogen Heap’s single “Telemiscommunications” is a delicate melancholic song that is a very different direction for the mau5 which sees him drop the tempo dramatically.

Great sound is serious business in the music business. Eric Lambert & Friends, featuring Eric Lambert on guitar, Dan Rogers on bass, and Pat Fiddle on mandolin and fiddle, are thrilled to take that commitment a step further and recently signed their first endorsement deal with K&K Sounds Systems. From Coos Bay, Oregon, K&K have established themselves as a premier manufacturer of the highest quality acoustic amplification products in the world.

With titles ranging from hard rock to proto-jam band to outlaw country to modern jazz to funk-- and a classic soundtrack to boot -- Real Gone Music's April 30 releases proudly uphold the label's tradition of eclectic handpicked repertoire. Rock fans will welcome the reappearance on CD of Blue Oyster Cult's wildly ambitious Imaginos album with a brand-new remastering job and two long out-of-print albums on one CD from Sea Level, the band founded by Allman Bros. Band members Chuck Leavell, Jaimoe and Lamar Williams.

David Bowie is back. Just reading that sentence elicits squeals of glee from fans young and old. He didn’t have to make any new music, really. Bowie’s legacy has been sealed ever since the 70s, and any new music is just icing on the cake. After 2003’s Reality and a terrifying stage collapse in 2004, it looked like Bowie was done with music, but then he came back when we least expected it. We didn’t need this, but we got it anyway.
