Monday night must have been a quiet one for most of Colfax. With the glow of the street’s steadfast and proven neon signs failing to deliver the usual patrons it must have felt eerily quiet. Normally coveted bar stools were sitting unused and the long lines at the liquor stores and dispensaries were a lot shorter. I know all this to be true because Hank 3 filled the Ogden Theatre with the types of people that frequent Colfax, a place that Playboy Magazine once called “the longest, wickedest street in America.”

Boulder Theater was home to a bit of an Americana supergroup and for many in the crowd it was a a nervous joy to be that close to musicians as amazing as Gillian Welch, Dave Rawlings, and John Paul Jones. The group was dressed in their Nashville finest with cowboy boots, hats and enough denim to make old Levi Strauss blush. The evening of Bluegrass and Country inflected Folk covered songs from each artist as well as some notable covers.

True sounds of American Alternative Rock rang from Atlanta, GA on May 9-11, 2014 at the Shaky Knees Festival. With headlining acts like The Violent Femmes, The Replacements, Alabama Shakes, and The National, the event drew large crowds and made good on the ticket, but the venue had ample space, sparing attendees the typical troubles of summer festival overcrowding. The line-up even featured some of Denver’s own musical talent, including singer-songwriter Gregory Alan Isakov and Folk/Baroque Pop band Paper Bird.

Fresh off an epic summer tour, Yonder Mountain String Band cruised into Red Rocks Amphitheater on Saturday for another heartfelt Colorado homecoming performance. Banjo virtuoso Danny Barnes and Whiskeygrass pioneers The Devil Makes Three provided support and initiated quite the party in the waning hours of a steamy August day on The Rocks as hoards of strings aficionados packed The Rocks with an urgent desire to wildly dance the night away beneath Creation Rock..

The snowmelt-filled Poudre River roared down the canyon and behind the stage at the scenic Mishawaka Amphitheatre last Saturday night. The crowd of college kids, older cowboys and mountain men and their sundress clad girlfriends showed up early to enjoy beer and a nice summer evening. The rugged stage and buildings that surrounded it looked and smelled like the dinning hall at a summer camp with a little less bug spray and a lot more beer.

If there is any venue that can evoke awareness of a higher power, Red Rocks is the place. Weather swirling around the naturally spectacular venue caused a slight delay to the start of the evening last Saturday as thunder, rain and lightning threatened from the sky. People pulled out their rain gear, but seemed generally unaffected as they awaited the start of a fantastic triple threat of music from JJ Grey, Grace Potter and Tedeschi Trucks Band.

Last Tuesday was the twentieth show and final on Hank 3’s West Coast Tour. Since Hank hadn’t been to Boulder in a while, this was a long awaited tour by fans and the band alike. Hank 3’s DIY work ethic allows him the freedom to explore Country, Doom Rock, Speed Metal, Punk, and even a little cattle callin’ and he put it all on display for the adoring fans. Hank 3 and the boys are doing what they want to and encouraging others to do the same and that’s what keeps the fans coming back.

These three guys create music that echoes the images their name conjures up. So, sit back, take a listen to their new single and learn a little about Mosey West before you mosey on about the rest of your day.

Ooooh boy! What a scene it was Thursday night at The Ogden. There were Ten Gallon Hats and Tattoos, Hillbillies and cute little Rockabilly girls, big burly beards and Mohawks. A little bit of just about every look you can imagine was packed into The Ogden for Hank III’s Attention Deficit Domination show. This wasn’t a mainstream country show by any means, but rather the kind of country show that fuels bar fights and raging hangovers in out-of-the-way roadhouses in places like the Deep South and West Texas.

Steve Earle played a intimate 45 minute set at Twist & Shout Records yesterday evening. He played about 9 songs from throughout his storied career including several from his new record, “I’ll Never Get Out Of This World Alive.” While the music was great, his between song banter and storytelling is what really made the performance special.
