The Motet – July 22nd – Red Rocks Amphitheatre
While there were some ominous clouds hanging over Red Rocks as we climbed the stairs, and the sky opened up and lightning slashed across the sky stalling our entrance, it couldn’t put a damper on possibly the best overall bill at Red Rocks this summer. Even though we were momentarily barred entrance and in limbo on the stairs, everybody was in high spirits. When we finally got in we were treated to a spectacular double rainbow off to the west over directly over the stage. What does it all mean? It meant a golden night for Colorado music!
Dance Party Time Machine – December 11th – Cervantes’ Ballroom
This past Friday night brought Denver unusually warm weather and a variety of choices for the Denver live music faithful to get down. Down at Cervantes’, J2G Live was ready to deliver their third installment of the Dance Party Time Machine, a collaborative effort of Denver’s finest musicians who come together to throwdown a mixtape of hits from throughout the decades of dance music. After trips through the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and more, the time machine landed safely in 2015 to end the evening.
It’s the Funkiest Time of the Year: J2G and Jordan Linit Talk Dance Party Time Machine
Over five years ago, on a fateful April Fool’s Day, a show was heldthat would lead to the rise of a Denver tradition. Dubbed “Foolin’ Around in the 90s,” the show was a chance for local musicians to come together and show Denver what our stellar local scene is made of. Organized by the guys who would eventually go on to form J2G Live, “Foolin’ Around in the 90s” evolved into one of the funkiest nights of the year.
Nightmares on Wax (DJ Set) – March 27th – Summit Music Hall
Fans old and new came out to the Summit Music Hall to glimpse the DJ stylings of legendary EDM producer Nighmares on Wax. The crowd was nicely varied and in great spirits; the music was chill, groovy and fairly well received, but was also somewhat lackluster, maybe because it was Thursday, and maybe because the headlining act did not go on until 12:30am. Good vibes, indeed. Not crazy, hyper dance party vibes. But good vibes.
