When a fresh, exciting band called Freddi Henchi and the Soulsetters — fronted by Freddy “Freddi” Gowdy and Marvin “Henchi” Graves — came to Colorado in the early 1970s, a young musician named Chris Daniels was blown away by the sounds they brought with them. Now, more than 40 years later, Daniels has teamed up with Gowdy to release a new album that presents R&B and Funk in the way that it was intended to be heard. Celebrate the release of “Funky To The Bone” with them this Saturday at Herman’s Hideaway.

Last Tuesday night attendees to Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre learned the that legends never die. Santana’s hour of killer, legendary guitar-ripping took fans on a stroll down memory lane while Rod Stewart’s headlining performance was chalked full of hits, new and old, and all incredibly enjoyable with fantastic onstage spectacles, demonstrating the full range of the Pop star’s talents.

A sea of people glimmered and gleamed in the overflowing Gothic Theatre last Friday for the dynamic indie-pop group, Fitz and the Tantrums. As packed as this sold out show was, no one pushed, no one shoved, and all awaited Fitz and his Tantrums anxiously; channeling their inner sardines, no one budged. The LA-based band flew through their Denver show without missing a beat; their dynamism ending with the same energy it began. Overall, the show was like a fantastic disco party.

Listen Up Denver! presents JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound “Artist Spotlight.” Spend some time with JC Brooks and his band “The Uptown Sound” as they deliver a smoking performance at The Larimer Lounge, talk about their new record Howl, their influences, and of course how the whole thing got started! These guys present soul music by children of the post-punk era. It’s the sound of a band that cut its teeth listening to PurpleRain and In On the Killtaker, is drawn to the theatrical-cum-creative auras of Tina Turner and Otis Redding.
