The Infamous Stringdusters 4.6 & 4.7.17

Wonder Ballroom Portland, OR Words by Mitch Melheim Photos by Coleman Schwartz Media The Infamous Stringdusters made their way back to Portland’s Wonder Ballroom once again, this time for a two-night run of ol’ fashioned ‘Dusters that many Portlanders had been longing for after the previous two years had shifted attention elsewhere with the Ladies and Gentlemen tour that featured Nicki Bluhm and their co-headlining tour with Keller Williams the year prior. Four sets of the Stringdusters turned out to be even better than expected, taking on a life of their own in comparison to the previous tours. April 6, 2017: Leftover Salmon guitarist Vince Herman was advertised as the band’s night one guest and utilized quite efficiently. Because of the way it was billed, I was curious if he would be playing with them all night, but he instead only joined them for a couple of long and exciting segments. The show began with a jammy start, eventually segueing into the Danny Barnes tune “Ge

Phoffman/Beck Quartet with Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys 4.6.17

Aggie Theatre Fort Collins, CO Words & Photos by Nicholas Stock ( Fat Guerilla Productions ) Sometimes a lineup comes along that is so enticing that you can’t help but drop everything and head out to a show. The Phoffman/Beck Quartet featuring Paul and Anders from Greensky Bluegrass alongside up and comers Billy Strings and Samson Grisman was something that I could not ignore. They plotted a four-day run through the Centennial State with stops in Boulder, Fort Collins, Frisco and Denver. I caught them at The Aggie Theatre on night two and they came ready to pick. For this tour, they entrusted the opening slot in Fort Collins to fellow Michiganders Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys. Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys are a big ol’ slice of Americana served up on one of those melamine plates your grandma used to keep in the cabinet. The group features the sounds you might hear around an Ann Arbor campfire circa 1958, but you know with heaps of modernity piled on for good measure

Eufórquestra’s Fort Funk feat. Eddie Roberts, Tnertle & Moves At Midnight 3.31.17

Aggie Theatre Fort Collins, CO Words & photos by Nicholas Stock ( Fat Guerilla Productions ) Whether it’s a summer night at the Mishawaka, New Years Eve at Hodi’s, or a headlining slot at the Lagoon Concert Series, Eufórquestra never lets the hometown crowd wait too long for a show. The now annual Fort Funk extravaganza is the local highlight of the year and features a guest or two sitting in with the band. Last year, Jennifer Hartswick from Trey Anastasio Band joined Eufórquestra, this time around it was The New Mastersounds' Eddie Roberts. Prior to the headliner fans were treated to some seriously talented bands to open the show. First on the docket was Moves At Midnight. From the ashes of Trichome, Moves at Midnight rises like a funky phoenix ready to throw down the most epic of dance parties. Lead by Evan Daldegan on guitar and vocals, this quintet is taking a fresh approach to the music that made them a Front Range phenomenon. Blending elements of r&b, funk,
