Portland Oregon’s own March Fourth Marching Band will take you on a journey from the swamps of Louisiana to the gypsy camps of eastern Europe to the African jungle by way of Brazil, echoing the deepest grooves of American funk, rock, and jazz then boiling it all together in cinematic fashion with high-stepping stilt-acrobatics and dazzling dancers. This genre-busting, in-your-face experience is not to be missed!

The Bluebird Theater was a full house this past Thursday night for California Folk duo The Milk Carton Kids’ sold out show. The Milk Carton kids hit Denver in the middle of their North American tour in support of The Ash & Clay, which was released back in March. The Bluebird was filled from front to back with folding chairs and winter coats saving seats, both quite the unusual sight. In the end the hilarious and heartfelt set made for a memorable experience and a truly great show.

The music of Kishi Bashi, the stage name of Virginia’s Kaoru Ishibashi, is a circus of imagination and melody. During a nearly sold-out set at The Bluebird last week, Ishibashi created lush string orchestrations as he looped violin, vocals, and beat boxing seamlessly throughout the set for a packed house of well mannered, attentive, and courteous 25-35 year olds who danced and smiled as they basked in the high energy coming from the unique show on stage.

Though Portland’s Horse Feathers began as the moniker of singer Justin Ringle whose silky vocals fill his songs with an dark and airy mood, over the past few years he has fleshed the group out through a careful selection of musicians and instrumentation that now convey the entirety of the emotion that his songs are filled with. By the time the band took the stage on Friday at The Bluebird, the crowd had filled, and cheers echoed from the walls as two violins weaved around each other accompanied the resonant swells of a cello.

Last Wednesday, the Cincinnati foursome Walk The Moon took the stage at The Bluebird in front of a packed house. Though the young audience reeked of over applied cologne and perfume, they shook their asses and threw their hands in the air to the percussive rhythms and tight harmonies. As the band hopped between their two albums all night, they showcased their hits and even had the time to slip in a classic cover in the encore slot.

Thursday night was a special occasion for the Denver music scene. It was a night where yet another local band poised for the big time, would play new songs for the hometown crowd. Tennis, the Denver-based pop band, has released their second full length album, “Young and Old,” and celebrated at The Bluebird before hitting the road on a 26-stop tour that will zigzag the band across the country, ending May 8th in Austin, TX. There is no band in any genre that sounds like Tennis. They are pushing the limits of Pop, and that’s refreshing.

Showcasing their relatively new two drummer formation, the band drew on tracks from their deep catalog to keep the Bluebird crowd dancing late into the night. Ha Ha Tonka opened the night with a tight Indie Rock flavored set.

An intimate crowd of long time fans gathered at The Bluebird last week to catch The Mike Pinto Band throw a reggae tinged party. Ranging from full band, horn driven numbers, to touching solo acoustic ballads, Pinto reminded us all how music binds humanity. While they featured most of their new EP “The West Is Still Wild,” there were still plenty of songs from the early days to round out the set.

When they hit the stage on Thursday at The Bluebird, Tapes ‘n Tapes came off as a humble everyman band that just wanted to rock out and have fun. Even through some sound issues no looks of frustration or disappointment ever crossed their faces. They were genuinely happy to be in Denver and playing their raw and raucous music to an appreciative crowd.
