CP S14 EP19 2020

Monday May 18, 2020 – WHEW … I can’t get my head around a summer with no live music events.  Every day brings more announcements of cancellations and venue closures from around the state.  Summer is a time when most bands get to play to new audiences, and new audiences get to experience new bands and old favorites.

Typically, recorded music is instrumental in getting people excited to see their favorite acts perform live at summer municipal events.  Performance revenue along with merch sales provides most of the money a band uses to record new music. Which leads me to wonder how much new music will be recorded this year.

The Winter Park & Fraser Chamber of Commerce announced the cancellation of Jazz Festival, Solshine, Winter Park Uncorked, High Note Thursdays, Fitness in the Park, the Run for Independence, the 4th of July celebration, the Switchback concert and Tequila and Tacos.

The City of Dacono announced the cancellation of the 13th Annual Carbon Valley Music & Spirits Festival for 2020.

Last week I reported on the closing of Live at Jacks in downtown Denver.  On Friday May 15, 3 Kings Tavern on South Broadway in Denver announced it was closing permanently, unable to pay the rent after a solid 14 year run.  Announcing the closure on Instagram, the owners posted “The spirit of Kings will never die.”

MONDAY DEC 02, 2019 – Hope you had a fantastic Thanksgiving weekend.  While I was snowed in, I put up the  2019 CP Listener Poll for LP/EP.   There are 154 entries this year.  I know it’s very tempting to vote for JUST your friend’s record, or that of your one and only favorite bands or artists, but it would be great if you’d discover and vote for others as well.  You get up to FIVE selections for LP/EP and for VIDEO PICK 2019 and for SINGLE RELEASE 2019.

Congratulations to Tommy Bolin, Zephyr, Otis Taylor and Freddi-Henchi (“Freddi Love” Gowdy and the late Marvin “Henchi” Graves) for their induction into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame this week.
