The 25th Anniversary JAS Aspen Snowmass Labor Day Experience will feature one of the most exciting line-ups in the non-profit organization’s history.

The Experience kicks-off on Friday, September 4 with two of the hottest touring acts on the road. Irish sensation Hozier will headline with Soulsters, Fitz and the Tantrums, who first performed at JAS Labor Day weekend in 2011, opening.

The video has received over 146 million views on YouTube and was Spotify’s most viral song of 2014.

On Saturday, September 5, Grammy Award winning superstars No Doubt will headline in one of only five performances they are scheduled to play in the US this year. Reggae artist Jimmy Cliff will open for No Doubt at 5pm in his first JAS appearance since 2000.

Nate Todd was born on the central plains of Nebraska, but grew up on the high plains of the Texas panhandle. With not much to do in either place, music was his constant companion. His parents dubbed the first two albums he ever owned onto a tape for him. Side A was Bert and Ernie’s Sing Along. Side B was Sgt. Peppers. His lifelong love affair with music started early as he practically grew up in a Rock & Roll band, with his father and uncle often taking him out on the road or into the studio with them. Nate began performing live at sixteen and hasn’t looked back, having played in numerous bands from L.A. to Austin. At the age of twenty he was bitten by the writing bug, and upon moving to Denver decided to pursue a degree from Metropolitan State University where he recently graduated with a B.A. in English and a minor in Cinema Studies.
