MONDAY SEPT 04, 2023 – HAPPY LABOR DAY. Women’s voices take over the Monday Morning Music Meeting (MMMM) this week with new releases from Esme Patterson, Wildermiss, The Motet and Bonnie & Taylor Sims.

To say it takes a lot to get me out – and to drive almost ninety minutes for an event – is an understatement. It has to be something pretty special. That’s the big takeaway from the 6th Annual 53:14 Music Video Experiment that took place Friday night in Fort Collins. 10 bands, 10 filmmakers, a $1000 budget and 53 hours 14 minutes to produce a music video. You can find past videos on the website. Look for new videos here when they get released.

September is travel month for me and Claire. Here’s the show schedule for the month.

MONDAY JULY 24, 2023 – We’re home. What a trip! NW Colorado is as unique and beautiful a place as there is in our state – and most of the rest of the region tbh. Claire had one night, our first after driving nearly five hours, to shoot clear vistas and stars. Rain and/or clouds obscured the night skies the rest of the week. Oh well – next road trip is mid-August to Mesa Verde for the Persied Meteor Shower.

Speaking of Mesa Verde, KSJD, serving the Mancos/Cortez and four corners section of the state, will NOT be airing the Colorado Playlist for the foreseeable future. Please continue to support this locally programmed community station as I wait for a new slot for the show to open up.

I need your feedback. Despite the really nice number of you who visit weekly, the MMMM has been receiving fewer votes. REMINDER – the MMMM was designed to gauge what you think is the BEST of the Colorado Playlist new music every week. A highly favorable “like” sticks around for future plays. A highly disfavorable vote means the song is more likely to disappear from my library.

Share the love – share #coloradomusic.

I NEED YOUR HELP! – It’s getting increasingly more expensive to maintain this show on a weekly basis. As much as I’d like to, I can’t keep spending my savings to produce the show. Please consider supporting. Venmo chrisk-2 or use the donation form below.
