Gramatik Talks Nikola Telsa, Music Piracy, and Amendment 64

Estimated read time 9 min read

Gramatik is headlining his first show at The Fillmore this Saturday night. With opening acts Talib Kweli and Mux Mool, it’s sure to be a night that lives up to Gramatik’s personal ability to move from one musical genre to the next. His new light design, inspired by infamous physicist Nikola Tesla is sure to be a highlight of this blowout. He was kind enough to take a few minutes away from his busy schedule to talk to Listen Up Denver! about the tour, his musical influences, and about his philosophy of giving away all of his music for free to fans.

JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound – April 6th – The Larimer Lounge

Estimated read time 2 min read

JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound has always maintained the work ethic of never just ‘giving a concert’ but putting on a full-on extravaganza packed with theatricality, tons of heart, and buckets of sweat—they can’t help it! Six and a half feet of raw emotion and sweat, with one leather boot planted in gutsy R&B, the other in taut minimalist grind. Snarling at the crowd beneath an afro pompadour, while indulging in a sly wink, singing to you directly, and here to make you dance. What does post-punk soul look like? It looks like JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound.
