Bonnie Paine Stole My Boyfriend

And I don’t even mind. Elephant Revival‘s Bonnie Paine is nothing short of magic. Greek mythology tells of dangerous and beautiful creatures called Sirens who would lure nearby sailors with their enchanting music, only to have them shipwreck tragically on the shores of their islands.  A Siren is a symbol of the dangerous yet sacred… Continue reading Bonnie Paine Stole My Boyfriend

Keller Williams | More Than A Litte Funk | Review

We are a community of audiophiles who understand the intrinsic value of live music to a point that we have been known to base large chunks of our free time around chasing the perfect show. And yet, how many bands that we see as the cream of the jamband scene were exposed to us through… Continue reading Keller Williams | More Than A Litte Funk | Review

The Motet | Ogden Theater | Denver, CO | 11/2/2013 | Review

The Motet has been a leader of groove music especially in Colorado for several years now. They have always had an all-star musician at each position of their band. It is just a matter of time before they explode into a national powerhouse. The Motet “family” contains some of my most favorite friends, and anyone… Continue reading The Motet | Ogden Theater | Denver, CO | 11/2/2013 | Review

Widespred Panic | Fillmore Miami Beach | 11/5/13 | Review

Tuesday, November 5, Widespread Panic took over South Beach’s Fillmore Auditorium for a wild night of pure, unfiltered jams—something you don’t see every day in Miami. The usual South Beach crowd was joyfully overtaken by an influx of devoted Panic fans, young and old, all uniting under one magical roof. It had been far too… Continue reading Widespred Panic | Fillmore Miami Beach | 11/5/13 | Review

Hot Rize-Pickin' up the Pieces | Review and Photos

Unlike the Martha White “self-rising” flour, it takes more than one ingredient, or individual, to lift the spirits of communities affected by natural disasters. On a brisk night in Boulder, Hot Rize brought together a closely linked ensemble of local musicians to do just that. Recognized as a bluegrass-haven, Boulder County hosts an array of… Continue reading Hot Rize-Pickin' up the Pieces | Review and Photos

Yonder Mountain String Band | First Avenue | Minneapolis | Review

Thousands of eager fans packed through the doors of the legendary First Avenue Nightclub on a blistering cold October night to see a semi-rare Minneapolis performance from the one and only Yonder Mountain String Band.

Quasi & Blues Control | Hi-Dive | Denver, CO | Review/Photos

Some venues seem to fit the mood of a concert or the concert goers perfectly. The Hi-Dive in Denver is one of these places, with dim colored lights and walls plastered with retro pop art concert posters for the numerous upcoming bands that will be playing there scattered about the various odd knick nacks it… Continue reading Quasi & Blues Control | Hi-Dive | Denver, CO | Review/Photos

Tame Impala Growing Exponentially

The psychedelic rock throw back band from Australia finally found their way back to Boulder to play at the last small venue that they’ll probably fit in. The next time they come to Colorado, I am predicting that it will be at the Fillmore, Red Rocks, or dare I say the Pepsi Center. As soon… Continue reading Tame Impala Growing Exponentially

The Motet | Boulder Theater | 10/31/2013 | Review & Photos

Just a week ago, Carlos Burle captured the world record for largest wave surfed. Off the coast of Nazaré, Portugal, the Brazilian dropped into the face of an estimated 100-foot monster and, roughly 20 seconds later, entered the record books with the ride of his life. I am overwhelmed with joy when I listen to… Continue reading The Motet | Boulder Theater | 10/31/2013 | Review & Photos
