Seven hours Southwest of Denver, nestled in a box canyon surrounded by steep cliffs and Aspen trees, lies an old mining town that has been the setting for many a magical musical memory. As its name implies, the Telluride Blues and Brews Festival was started 19 years ago to celebrate craft beer and a specific genre of music; but over the years the festival line-up has became more diverse, and this year’s festivities raised the bar and established Telluride Blues and Brews as a festival that ANY music lover would want to attend.

Little Feat is a band that has been in the trenches of Rock and Roll since the revolution began. In 1969, Frank Zappa suggested Lowel George leave The Mothers of Invention and form his own band, and that same year George formed Little Feat with the goal of combining Blues, Funk, Country, Folk, Rhythm and Blues and Rock and Roll. Listen Up Denver! had the honor of catching up with Little Feat’s Paul Barrere while he was in a hotel in New York, and we talked Feat past and present.
Blues monsters Buddy Guy and Robert Randolph stopped into the Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield over Labor Day Weekend and put on a clinic of sorts for the picnicking patrons that spread out their blankets all over the lush grass. From the soulful and Gospel infused sounds of Randolph and his “Family Band,” to Guy’s machine gun licks and Muddy Waters stories, this was a great way to wind down the summer under the stars.
Soulive will be hosting their own mini-festival, dubbed Snowlive, this weekend at The Fox Theatre. The first two nights will feature special guests JJ Grey and Jennifer Hartswick, while the third night will be an evening of “Rubber Soulive” named after the band’s album of the same name paying tribute to The Beatles.
