Monday NOV 29, 2021 – I hope you had a great weekend. While we were all indulging in the fixings and trappings that go with the start of the end of year holiday seasons, I posted the 12th Annual Colorado Playlist Listener Poll.

Categories include Album (LP/EP), Alternative/Indie, Americana/Country, Blues/Rock/R&B, Cover/Remake, Duo or Band, Female, Folk/Singer-Songwriter, Funk/Soul/R&B, Jazz Album, Male, New Artist/Band, Pop/Light Rock, Rock/Hard Rock/Punk, Single Release

COLORADO TOP 30 DEC 2020

JAN 03 2021 – Well, #1 is #1 – right?  And Nathaniel Rateliff AGAIN holds onto the #1 most spins for DECEMBER 2020.  Sarah Slaton and Dafna swapped the #2 position with Dafna’s debut dropping to #16 and Sarah Slaton’s latest jumping up from #17 in NOV, due largely to being a featured artist for DEC on Indie 102.3 and getting added to regular rotation on 105.5 the Colorado Sound.

New artists to watch for include Blakk Mantra, whose debut got added and made it to HOT rotation at 105.5 The Colorado Sound for December and former Chimney Choir co-founder Kris Drickey who struck out on her own with State Change (not avail on YouTube)

Bohemian Nights @ New West Fest – Day One

Day one is in the books.  great to hang with some great folks yesterday at Bohemian Nights at New West Fest.  Joe Johnson (playing today), Jeremy Lawton, Nick Duarte, Alysia Kraft, Ansel Foxley, Patti Fiasco, Post Paradise, Big Head Todd and the Monsters …. damn what a fun time … Record crowds for Big Head Todd & the Monsters.  The main venue shut off at just shy of 7000, and the secondary simulcast venues were at near capacity as well, with another several thousand left to wonder around, enjoying the music from “outside” the room.  Here’s a taste of the main stage action from Friday … Full slate today … cya at the show.
