Why Should You Go: Kyle Hollingsworth can always be counted to bring out the funk and throw a jazzy little dance party. Whether it was in his days with The String Cheese Incident or part of one his own side projects, Hollingsworth funky tendencies shine through the music. This time around he has put together a group of Colorado’s favorite musicians for a run of shows on the Front Range to celebrate the Leap Year 2008. Joining Hollingsworth for these three shows will be Ross Martin, Matt Spencer and Dave Watts of The Motet, who appeared on Hollingsworth’s acclaimed solo release, Never Odd Or Even. The Band will also include Boulder favorite Liza Oxnard and vocalist Jans Ingber as well as DJ Check One.

Music has always been a part of my life. It probably all started listening to old Grateful Dead, Peter Paul & Mary, and Simon & Garfunkel records that my parents had, but it wasn't long before they were taking me to concerts like Starship, Crosby, Stills & Nash, and Huey Lewis & The News. I got the bug to write about music after reviewing an Eric Clapton concert for a creative writing project in high school but didn't really take it up seriously until 2002. Since then I have published countless articles in The Marquee Magazine and done some work for Jambase.com, SPIN Magazine, and various other outlets. I started Listen Up Denver! as a way to share the music information that is constantly spilling out of my head with people who care. Please enjoy!
