Estimated read time 3 min read

On the final night of the 2018 Wheels of Soul tour, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Drive-By Truckers, and Marcus King Band tore through Red Rocks Amphitheatre with a vengeance. The 22 year old wizard of the blues, Marcus King, kicked things off with his band and damn near brought the house down. The Rocks were nearly full when he started at 5:30 and only proceeded to get more packed as the boy-genius led his band through a scorching set of horn-fueled Blues.

String Cheese Incident – January 2nd – 1stBank Center

Estimated read time 6 min read

Saturday night was the third and final night of the String Cheese Incident’s annual New Year’s run at Broomfield’s 1stBank Center. For the first time since the tradition started, however, New Year’s Eve landed on a Thursday, and so the NYE celebration would fall on the first night of the run, rather than the last like previous years. Typically, the final night and NYE combination would mean that the run would end in a bang.

Estimated read time 4 min read

The Bluebird was a who’s who of the Denver music scene when one of the best young bands on the scene made their headlining debut. There were members of The Congress, Recovery Act, Kinetix, The Whales, YAMN and more chatting with friends and enjoying a night out where they weren’t the featured act on stage.

Zen Mustache – December 1st – Jamestown Mercantile

Estimated read time 6 min read

The mention of a “cover band” often conjures up images of old dudes with long hair, bandannas and black leather vests unsuccessfully attempting to bring back the 80s. That said, one night of solid tunes at the strangely beautiful and exceptionally unique venue known as the Jamestown Mercantile by Boulder-based band Zen Mustache, and our views on cover bands were changed forever. This show was a lampshade-shaking good time.
