Billy And The Kids – April 20th – Ogden Theatre

Estimated read time 7 min read

With so many out and about in Denver to celebrate the 4/20 “holiday,” mellow vibes quickly turned to desperation as the box office attendant posted the “Sold-Out” sign in front of the iconic Ogden Theatre. While it may have been a surprise to some that a band making their Denver debut on a Monday night sold-out the 1,700 person theater, the performance Billy and The Kids turned in showed why it’s always smart to grab your tickets in advance.

String Cheese Incident – December 29th – 1stBank Center

Estimated read time 4 min read

While it wasn’t packed by any means, the 1stBank Center was amped up for the first of three String Cheese Incident shows last Monday night despite the bitter cold, snowy darkness that had enveloped Denver shortly after Christmas. All the regulars were riding the rail, there were stilt walkers and hula-hoopers, costumes, and of course glitter…lots of glitter. To say the boys came out of the gate hot would be an understatement but, unfortunately, despite some great playing, the second set was a bit of a let-down.

Soulive & Kyle Hollingsworth Band – December 7th – Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom

Estimated read time 4 min read

Concert-goers escaped a chilly Friday evening as Cervantes’ played host to Kyle Hollingsworth Band and Soulive. With local favorites Good Gravy rocking The Other Side, an eccentric and young mix of Jazz veterans and Jamband stalwarts packed in for a night of smooth vibes and all around rambunctious behavior. Though Hollingsworth kicked things off with an uninspired set, Soulive moved us with a soulful and Jazzy performance.

EOTO – December 8th – The Fillmore Auditorium

Estimated read time 5 min read

Albert Einstein once said, “The most beautiful experience we can have in life is the mysterious.” hat beauty and mystery is perfectly reflected in the auditory styling of EOTO as they certainly provide a mysterious experience. One must wonder how two men can create such a wide variety of sounds, which come off as so cohesive, purely in the moment. Simply put, EOTO is an elevation of the today’s EDM music scene.

Lotus – September 8th – Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Estimated read time 6 min read

It’s been over a year since Lotus stole the show on a bill with The Glitch Mob at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. This time they returned in full force as the headliner at one of the last and most anticipated shows of the legendary venue’s summer concert series. It was a show that mined the depths of the Lotus catalog and revealed a stunning new cover that served as one of many peeks of an outrageously high energy show and poured even more fuel on the fire under this massive dance party.

String Cheese Incident – July 6th – Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Estimated read time 5 min read

Well if you haven’t heard by now, let us be the first to tell you . . . Friday night at Red Rocks was WET! Early in String Cheese Incident’s first set, a storm that had been threatening for a while descended on the venue. The bathrooms (and anywhere else with a roof for that matter) were packed with sodden fans, and people huddled together in beer tents and under just about any overhang they could find as water fell from the sky in sheets as they waited for what turned out to be a stellar show from the band for nearly two hours.

String Cheese Incident – July 5th – Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Estimated read time 5 min read

When String Cheese takes over Red Rocks for a run of shows it’s always a party and last night was no different. It took the stands a while to feel crowded, but slowly but surely the freaks filtered in and by 7:30 the air was buzzing with anticipation. Though it looked like only three quarters of the tickets were sold for the first night of this summer’s three night run, the boys didn’t hold back and really brought it right out of the gates. Get ready for night two . . . the boys are on fire!!!
