Monday Feb 13, 2023 – Happy (early) Valentine’s Day. Sadly, we lost two more members of the Colorado music scene this past week, when it was reported that longtime Denver music veteran, Jimmy Ayers, passed away after a long and drawn out battle with cancer. Blues guitarist Jeremy Vasquez also passed away.

Jeremy was a long time SoCO musician who lived in Texas for the past few years, but was really admired among CO blues guitarists. As posted by long time scene drummer Kyle Borthick, “Jimmy Ayers was a pillar of the community. A true gentleman and a righteous guy all the way around.” RIP fellas.

Monday Jan 30, 2023 – A note about this weeks show: I front announced Clementine Was Right‘s new song on the show, I said: “Some bands are just not strong at social media, and some bands don’t even bother with a website. You WILL find Clementine Was Right on Bandcamp, Spotify and other places you stream or buy music. And they have a FaceBook page, but they haven’t posted anything since Oct.”

I did not mean to suggest that Clementine Was Right had NO website or social media. In fact, they do have a website, sixteen thousand followers on TikTok, and two thousand followers on Instagram. You’ll most likely find them hangin’ out and posting on TikTok and Instagram.

You’ll find the latest from Clementine Was Right below in the Monday Morning Music Meeting. Let us know what you think.

If you’re going to be at the Auditorium Music Business Conference on Thurs, Feb 1 I’d love to say hi. I’ll be speaking on the panel “Partnering with DJs and Curators to Promote Your Music” from 12:00pm – 12:30pm.
