Jimmy Cliff – June 19th – Ogden Theatre

Estimated read time 4 min read

The Denver Reggae faithful turned up in force to catch Jimmy Cliff at The Ogden last week. It wasn’t sold-out, and there was room to move around, but the room was full and the energy was high . . . really high. It was great to see all these folks out on a Tuesday night and the variety in the crowd made for a great vibe. One thing was for sure, those that came out to catch Cliff were into his music and his performance made us all feel like we were on the beach, or at least near it, while it made us feel a little better about life.

One read through this exchange and you’ll get a feel for what a witty, sarcastic bunch of guys that make up this group. From comparing themselves to The Partridge Family to claiming that John Denver is one of the best local bands on the scene right now, it’s clear that one of the only these guys take seriously is their music.
