Michelle Shocked
What started out as a cold and wet, snowy April evening turned into a warm, cozy and intimate dialog with one of the greatest anti-folk singers of all time, Michelle Shocked, who is also a self proclaimed ”sophisticated hillbilly”.
Trevor Hall
Do you remember your first concert? I was probably 15-18 and saw Kiss. We actually had tickets that were so bad they were called “obstructed view” but that’s all we could afford. Obstructed view meant there was some massive object in your way so you couldn’t actually see the performance. Our tickets were even worse! [...]
And Sometimes Why
Mike Berg, front man, lead singer and guitarist of the Denver based band And Sometimes Why has the type of band musicians die for, talented, passionate and mature. I knew this band was great before I had even entered the building, just the deep groovy sounds emanating through the brick wall as I walked towards the entrance of the [...]
American Relay
Nick Sullivan and Alex Hebert of the Denver-based band American Relay are the kind of guys that you feel like you have known forever within minutes of meeting them. We had been invited to come see some “real” rock at a low-down club on Broadway in downtown Denver. I am not one who can pass [...]

Matisyahu
As he paced back and forth across the stage delivering incredibly long strings of verse, I found myself mesmerized by his cadence and ability to move effortlessly between melodic verses and rap streams and genres.
The Ragbirds
“The Ragbirds have gestated a sound and experience so unlike anything you’ve seen in these parts, you may begin to wonder if you’ve teleported to another land”
-Cheryl Wilson, The Uncommon Sense Magazine
Stonefed
When we left the bar two hours earlier, it was nearly empty. Upon our return, the bar was packed; only one table was open and there was a mysterious pair of shoes under the table and a jacket on one chair. Well, maybe the shoes weren’t that mysterious, but it sounds a lot better, don’t [...]
Bob Greenspan
This was a big weekend in Moab, the annual Folk music festival, and we were intentionally trying to avoid any musical venue affiliated with this event in order to mitigate contact with the masses. So far, so good.
Ryan Shupe
Ryan Shupe and The Rubberband. Before I get started on this band’s performance, what about the name of the band, isn’t it fine?
