Estimated read time 2 min read

Last Tuesday night, Denver Botanic Gardens played host to a true legend of the songwriting world, Mr. John Hiatt. Hiatt, who was one of the pioneers who broke down the barriers between Country, Rock, and Pop, has been producing consistently strong material since his first release way back in 1974 and he proved he can still command attention with just an acoustic guitar, a harmonica, and his voice.

What a night at the Denver Botanic Gardens. The weather was picture perfect and the late afternoon sun was shining on the Chihuly glass exhibit that inhabits the gardens through November. Fans of Taj Mahal and John Hiatt sipped wine as they strolled the paths, chatted with friends and took in the stunning glass that is expertly woven into the natural surroundings before being dazzled by the music that came from the stage under Chihuly’s bright orange sun.

John Hiatt & Taj Mahal – August 13th – Chautauqua Auditorium

Estimated read time 4 min read

The Chautauqua Auditorium never fails to set its own tone with each event it hosts. The historic building is set in the shadow of the Flatirons and packs a visual wow factor as you amble up the hill to the door, but then drives it home as you take your seat and absorb all the warm, wood ambiance that is standard show experience in the 116 year old structure. This line-up of the Taj Mahal Trio and John Hiatt & The Combo was a true whopper and, as you can imagine, the show was sold-out.
