CP S13 EP41 2019

MONDAY Oct. 21 2019 –The Colorado Playlist on 105.5 The Colorado Sound is changing times!  After reviewing three years worth of ratings data, it has been decided to move the Colorado Playlist to Saturday mornings, 6AM-8AM.  Seems I have more available listeners on Saturday mornings than on Sundays!  I will continue to host Saturday mornings, 8AM-12PM.  So now you’ll get two solid hours of Colorado music, and then me hosting four hours of music discovery – including Colorado music – every Saturday morning.  Set that alarm clock!!

The Colorado Music Hall of Fame presented by Comfort Dental has announced the 2019 induction celebration for Tommy Bolin, Zephyr, Otis Taylor, Freddi Henchi Band and Wendy Kale.  Tue, Dec 3 at Mission Ballroom.

At Bohemian Foundation, our focus is on building community …by coming together to create and enjoy music.

CP S13 EP35 2019

MONDAY SEPT 09, 2019 – Twenty years ago a very special woman in my life created the “picky grumpy old goat” after I returned from a tour of England/Scotland with my band and quit.  That idea blossomed into “goat” as I’ve been known ever since.  Miss Pattie, aka Mrs. Goat, passed away in 2016.  

Over the past few years I’ve asked a handful of graphic artists to refresh the old logo that Miss Pattie did for me.  I’m very happy and honored that My Blue Sky drummer Jamie McGregor (Zamar Screen Printing Inc.) caught the essence of the original and provided the perfect update …and a new banner to go with it.  Thank you Jamie! 

Speaking of My Blue Sky.  Original founding member and bassist, David Brandt, has announced he’s leaving the band to focus on family and other personal goals.  Good luck to David and the band.

Congratulations are in order for one of Colorado’s BEST – SUCH – whose new album Wide Nose, Full Lips landed in the national Billboard charts.  The album hit #25 in the national R&B/Soul Album chart and #5 in the national Heatseekers chart, across all genres.  The album debuted at #9 on the iTunes R&B/Soul charts.  Check out the latest single from her album in this week’s MMMM below.

I’m also very happy to premier the new release from Sean Kelly of the Samples aka the Samples called Indian Summer.  The Samples are a Colorado legacy band that formed after Sean moved here from New England in 1987 and formed the band, then based in Boulder.

Add to those fantastic new releases one from Jurassic Mark, aka Mark Bliesener, aka Band Guru.  Mark Bliesener is one of Colorado’s unsung music industry legacies. Among other things, he is credited with coining the band name Dead Kennedys. He has been the manager for both Lyle Lovett and Big Head Todd & the Monsters. At age 70 he just dropped his solo debut. It’s a rock n roll record with plenty of old school garage and punk. It’s not yet available online.  When it is, I’ll share it.  In the meantime, if you missed this week’s show you can stream it in the archive section at www.coloradosound.org

Now that the summer outdoor concert season is over, my band GOATZ! is back to playing at some of our favorite indoor venues, and a couple of new ones.  In particular, we’ve very happy to be playing at the new Broadway Roxy and Nissi’s Entertainment Venue & Event Center (Lafayette) in October.  Make sure to check our concert listings at www.goatzmusic.com/shows

VIDEO PICK OF THE WEEK

One of the very intriguing artists to emerge from Denver the past few years, Kayla Marque almost didn’t get here.  A couple of years ago, she suffered from vocal problems, along with other personal issues, that prompted the title of her upcoming album Brain Chemistry (Left Brain / Right Brain) on which she deals not only with matters of the heart, but mental health issues as well.

CP S13 EP34 2019

Monday September 2, 2019 – Well, it’s official.  Happy Labor Day.  Summer is over … in 18 days LOL.  Today is supposed to hit 100. I’m looking forward to cooler temperatures, and the rush of music about to hit my desk in time for BEST OF 2019 consideration.  

August was FANTASTIC!  Not only were all the festivals and live shows killer, but you crushed the stats for this site – best since 2015.  Thank you!

Already sitting on my desk waiting for some airtime, is the debut from band guru Mark Bleisner, former manager for Big Head Todd & the Monsters, and Lyle Lovett among others.  Mark celebrates his 70th birthday with the release called “Jurassic Mark” on which he plays drums (which he did long before becoming a band manager) and guitar and sings.  

Also on the way next week is the new album from the Samples called “Indian Summer.”  An initial quick first listen leads me to believe this is a very personal album for original founding member Sean Kelly.  Sean has dealt with lost marriage, a child caught in the middle, and a significant change in management.  It’s a personal album, that unlike the unevenness of his previous effort, America (2014), comes off sounding strong and self-assured.
