Everyone Orchestra | Hodi's Half Note | Fort Collins, CO | Review

When you bring a together a cast of musicians steeped in different backgrounds for the sole purpose of creating on-stage spontaneity, you have an improvisational outfit. The Everyone Orchestra, conducted by ringleader Matt Butler, is exactly that. The difference between your typical jam band and an improvisational outfit is that the latter shows up to… Continue reading Everyone Orchestra | Hodi's Half Note | Fort Collins, CO | Review

Grant Farm with Andy Thorn | Fox Theater | Boulder, CO | Review

What more can one ask for than a night of great musicians and a good mix of country, rock and bluegrass? Probably not much except to have those musicians be the members of Grant Farm… and maybe include a special guest. Well, that was exactly what May, 2 was for those who went to the… Continue reading Grant Farm with Andy Thorn | Fox Theater | Boulder, CO | Review

The Get Right Band | Shake | New Music Review

The music scene in Asheville, NC has been thriving as of late; however, the “word is out” so to say, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to stand out in the musical hotbed of the Carolinas. The Get Right Band has the entire puzzle pieces needed to do just that, and their new EP Shake demonstrates… Continue reading The Get Right Band | Shake | New Music Review

Grateful Dead | Dave's Picks Volume 6 | Review

Studio album purists might have a sound argument when it comes to certain rock acts, but few Deadheads would ever argue that the quality of the Grateful Dead‘s studio work superseded their live recordings. Most of their studio albums we’re muddled down by the likes of Warner Brothers, big time L.A. record executives that wanted… Continue reading Grateful Dead | Dave's Picks Volume 6 | Review

The Black Angels | Boulder Theater | 5/10/2013 | Review

Long heralded and firmly entrenched as the psychedelic stalwarts of Austin, Texas, The Black Angels run on a reputation of mysticism that has them surrounded by dark, fuzzy guitar riffs and distorted vocals. Not adhering to conventions of modern rock, though grappling with elements of surf and late sixties acid rock, they’ve carved out their… Continue reading The Black Angels | Boulder Theater | 5/10/2013 | Review

Royal Potato Family All-Stars | Blue Nile | 5/5/2013 | Review

On the last Saturday of Jazz Fest, the late night grids displayed a smorgasbord of concert choices all over town. Which band to see was a tough decision for most, but a superjam always makes that decision a little easier, and those who made it to the Blue Nile on Frenchmen Street before it sold… Continue reading Royal Potato Family All-Stars | Blue Nile | 5/5/2013 | Review

Gipsy Moon | Quixotes True Blue | Denver, CO | 4/27/13 | Review

I had the pleasure of catching this homespun Nederland crew at Quixotes a couple weeks ago. It’s a venue I feel gracious to walk in alone to and find friends of all forms waiting inside. Gipsy Moon adds a whole new arena of affability to the experience. Though they are young, they take on the… Continue reading Gipsy Moon | Quixotes True Blue | Denver, CO | 4/27/13 | Review

Built To Spill | Fox Theater | Boulder, CO | 5/11/2013 | Review

It’s amazing that Built To Spill has been around for over 20 years. In that time, Doug Martsch‘s little outfit has released seven full albums, three compilation and live albums, several EP’s and singles and gone through numerous lineup changes. Remarkably, however, the band’s sound has stayed relatively consistent, as have the excellent live performances.… Continue reading Built To Spill | Fox Theater | Boulder, CO | 5/11/2013 | Review

The Meter Men & Page McConnell Come to Denver

After a spirited Jazz Fest, the Meter Men (3/4 of the original Meters) and Page McConnell from Phish came to Denver to play a sold out show at the Ogden Theater. They even added another show because of the huge demand for a place to see these legends culminate on stage. The energy was great… Continue reading The Meter Men & Page McConnell Come to Denver

This got me thinking about why I love writing for Grateful Web. By trade, I am a server,… Continue reading Why I Love Writing for Grateful Web
