Mountain Standard Time – Sunny EP

Estimated read time 4 min read

There aren’t very many bands that would release a seven track EP for a three-night run but this is Mountain Standard Time, and they are a veritable song machine. After coming off a year long hiatus and sporting a new lineup, MST must have been itching to release some new material for their dedicated fans who seem to have sprung back up from the mountainsides from whence they came in even greater numbers than before…and so comes the band’s new EP, Sunny.

Split Lip Rayfield is often described as a mix of bluegrass and country with an accent of metal. No other band delivers the experience of the homemade gas-tank bass, mandolin, and banjo. Together, these three men burn up speakers and stages alike as they tour and play music for the fan faithful. Mando player Wayne Gottstine recently took some time to share with us at Listen Up Denver! about the documentary Never Make it Home, The Split Livers, Wakarusa, and why we should come out and see them this weekend.

Air Dubai – January 29th – The Aggie Theatre

Estimated read time 3 min read

The Aggie was not packed to the gills but there was a solid Sunday night crowd for Air Dubai’s show this past weekend. The Denver based hip-poppers were wrapping up a four-night Colorado tour with Chicago based funk-pop-rock outfit Kids These Days. While some of the crowd looked a little dazed from a long weekend of avoiding assignments, the majority was grooving hard and giving the bands a lot of energy to draw from for their performances.
