Boulder – Chris K's Colorado Playlist

CP S19 EP 42 2025

AIRDATES SAT NOV 29 thru FRIDAY DEC 05 2025. MMMM = Clay Street Unit, Drunken Hearts, Andy Frasco, Elbow Brothers. Stream on demand.

HAPPY HOLLY-DAZE .. I hope you had a tremendous Thanksgiving. As we wind down the year, I hope you’ll HELP SUPPORT THIS SHOW in your year end giving.

The Colorado Playlist is the only show showcasing Colorado music statewide. It will turn 20 years old in 2026!

Your support is essential to keeping it on the air.

I make this show available at no cost to public radio stations, which as you may know are facing their own revenue issues now with the loss of CPB funding. Because of those CPB issues, what little money I was making is now $0.

Please make donations via Venmo at chrisk-2 (preferred) or use the form below. Thank you, sincerely – chrisk

MONDAY MORNING MUSIC MEETING

The Monday Morning Music Meeting happens courtesy of Starr’s Guitars in Cedaredge, serving the western slope music community since 1998.

Every year I debut approximately two hundred new current-year songs. Every week I have to make decisions about what to keep to play again and what to archive.

Let me know what you think of the debuts (D) and new songs (N) I shared in the show this week.

Results enter into determining which cuts stay in the library and which cuts might eventually make it to the annual Colorado Playlist Fan & Listener Poll and the “some of the best of the year” show.
