CP S14 EP34 2020

Monday AUG 31 2020The Colorado Playlist is and has always been about one thing – it is expressly and explicitly Colorado from the 60’s to today; from the biggest hitmakers and award winners in Colorado music history to some of the freshest new music emerging from the Centennial state.

The weekly show is not the only place you can hear the great music that makes up our scene in Colorado. You can dial up a 50+ year retrospective at the Colorado Playlist on Spotify.  You’ll find a few playlists there – a Colorado Playlist ALL TIME from the 60s to Today; CP2020 = songs from the current release year; CP2019, CP Best of the Decade 2010-2019 and CP Caribou Ranch Collection.  PLS be sure to follow.

You can also find every playlist I’ve ever made on my YouTube channel, dating back to 2012.  PLS be sure to subscribe.

New music this week in the MMMM = Jonny Barber, White Rose Motor Oil, Lucy Daydream and Jon Snodgrass.  Esme Patterson and Jon Snodgrass show up in this week’s TOP 5 while Nathaniel Rateliff reclaims the #1 spot at RootsMusicReport.com

VIDEO PICK OF THE WEEK

Besides being a friend for many many years, Jon is a music icon in Fort Collins, CO.  He originally moved to FC in 1992 and was a founding member of Armchair Martian before teaming up with ALL vocalist Chad Price to form the alt-country-rock band Drag the River.  This is the first single off his upcoming new album due out in October.

 

CP S14 EP33 2020

Monday AUG 24 2020LATE!  Sorry.  Normally I’m done with this by 9AM. I got caught up researching djs around the state, at over 20 radio stations, who might play some Colorado music on their shows.  It’s been a busy couple of days. I’ve managed to document over 50 djs individually who have been known to program Colorado music from time to time.

NEW music this week in the MMMM = Sarah Christine, Chadzilla feat. Tanya Shylock, and Daniel Rodriguez.   The new release from Jayme Stone, Awake, hits the TOP 5 at CO radio this week while the Subdudes Lickskillet makes the TOP 5 at RootsMusicReport.com.

In the mood for live music?  There seems to be more and more of it taking places as we figure out the best way to do things.  Of course that does mean wearing masks when in public places and maintaining social distancing. The Fort Collins Musicians Association (FOCOMA) has figured out a way to celebrate over a decade of FOCOMX and NOCO music events.  I’m happy to support this  year’s FOCOMX – A Digital Retrospective.

CP S14 EP32 2020

Monday AUG 17 2020 – Down Time finally got bounced out of the TOP 5 this week, replaced by the resurgence of Whippoorwill and the rise of the latest Kayla Rae EP Pressure.  This week’s MMMM = the latest from King Cardinal, Big Head Todd & the Monsters and Bison Bone.
