Colorado Playlist – S11 EP23

New music this week for you to vote on from Billy Shaddox, Kerry Pastine & the Crime Scene, The Fremonts, Ryan Countryman, and Zach Heckendorf. 

I had the pleasure of hosting the first of three Wellington Mainstreet Summer Concert shows I am responsible for booking this summer.  Matt Skinner Band and My Blue Sky proved to be the perfect fits for the inaugural event funded by the Colorado Department of Local Affairs Mainstreet Program, the Bohemian Foundation, and local businesses .

The next one is July 15 with Grateful Dead tribute band Switchman Sleeping, and my band Goatz!

My Blue Sky will be the headliner at our Annual Colorado Playlist Anniversary show at the “Mish” in August.

If you’re in NoCO this week I’ll be hosting Dressy Bessy at the Bohemian Nights Thursday Night Live show in Old Town Square Fort Collins.

Colorado Playlist – S11 EP22

It’s summer.  I’m busy – either playing or emceeing or stage managing or attending an event.  Last Thursday I hosted the Blue Canyon Boys as part of Bohemian Nights Thursday Night Live in Old Town Fort Collins — this Thursday I have one of my favorite family bands in the state – The Reminders, out of Colorado Springs.  Their brand of hip-hop is some of the most exciting around today, and I’m stoked to be hosting for them.

Don’t forget to let me know whether to KEEP or DELETE new music from this week’s PLAYLIST.  It’s up to you what I ultimately play on the show.  So let me know.

I did receive new music this weekend from Kerry Pastine & the Crime Scene that I’ll be adding this week along with something new from Billy Shaddox.

Colorado Playlist – S11 EP19

Two shows, two nights, two nearly sold out rooms.  That’s the kind of action I like to see locally.  I went to see Andy Palmer‘s cd release show that included performances from Joe Sampson and Anthony Ruptak – that was Friday night at the Walnut Room.  It was standing room only, mostly do to the limited seating available to begin with.  Andy played with an all star lineup of local musicians that included the likes of Greg Harris on vibes and Carl Sorenson on drums, who seems to play with everyone in town.

Besides bumping into a veritable who’s who of local musicians, and music industry types who I hadn’t seen in some cases for years, the show itself was nearly flawless, and really displayed a side of Palmer we haven’t really been exposed to in the past several years, as he turned in his rock grooves for a more contemplative singer-songwriter style closer to alternative folk.

My band Goatz! and Gasoline Lollipops played a show on Saturday night at Avogadro’s Number in Fort Collins.  I’m hoping this is not the last show I get to do with my friends, who are exploding on the scene, and will (with little doubt IMO) one day be playing far larger rooms.

Gasoline Lollipops – Avogadro’s Number May 20

This time next Monday I’ll be thick into the Bolder Boulder so there will not be a new post.  I’ll be back in two weeks.

Beginning June 1st I’ll be back hosting the Bohemian Nights Thursday Night Live Series in Old Town Square Fort Collins.  June 1 = SHEL.

June 17 I’ll be hosting the inaugural Wellington Downtown Concert Series with the Matt Skinner Band and My Blue Sky.
