Music has always been a compass in dark times. From Dylan and Seeger to the Dead and beyond, artists have held a mirror to power and refused to let lies go unchallenged. Today, as Donald Trump doubles down on authoritarian tactics, mocks science, and waves away inconvenient truths as “hoaxes,” we are once again at a crossroads. Every day of silence is another day he tightens his grip.

That’s why Jesse Welles matters right now.

Singer-songwriter Jesse Welles has earned a reputation as one of modern music’s most fearless troubadours. After announcing a single Ogden Theatre date for October 29, 2025, 97.3 KBCO is thrilled to add a second night on October 30, responding to overwhelming fan demand.

97.3 KBCO is proud to present An Evening With Jesse Welles, a singular night of music and storytelling at the historic Ogden Theatre on Wednesday, October 29, 2025. Tickets go on sale Friday, May 16 at 10:00 a.m. Mountain Time and are available at https://www.axs.com/events/972032/jesse-welles-tickets.
