Garaj Mahal & Genetics 5.12.18

The Caribou Room Nederland, CO Words by Kristin Zachman ( Direct Attention ) Photos by Blake Barit ( Direct Attention ) Last weekend, Coloradans bore witness to the reunion of jazz juggernauts Garaj Mahal. The legendary foursome displayed their funky fusion at Denver's Be on Key Psychedelic Ripple and Nederland's Caribou Room. This reunion brought together the Garaj Mahal we all know and love for three stellar shows over the weekend. Those who commuted to the picturesque mountain town were gifted with a fog-filled drive up the canyon alongside the roaring Boulder Creek. After thirty-ish magical minutes of twisting and turning, we pulled up to The Caribou Room which is irrefutably my favorite music venue in Boulder County. This new space is decked out with great local brews, an excellent eatery, and the fabulous Peaceful Security, all set in beautiful Nederland. With Very Nice Brewing IPA in hand, I anxiously waited for Genetics to open up the show. These local boys c

Aiken Bluegrass Festival 5.11 & 5.12.18

Carolina State Fairgrounds Aiken, SC Words by Julie Hutchins ( Tipping Point Designs ) Photos by Scott Shrader ( J. Scott Shrader Photography ) Aiken is the mythical bluegrass festival you dreamed about in the womb. It is the place to be. First off, I send gratitude to an amazing production team and volunteer staff. You make the music happen. High quality artist hospitality is vital to making everyone feel at home. Thank you providing the vibes. Aiken has proven year after year that simplicity is key and it is the little things that make the biggest difference. Aiken provides a legendary line up, super group jams, reliable sound on both indoor and outdoor stages, proper bathroom facilities, wide open skies, playful pups, blissful children, the delightful Scramble Campbell and all proceeds benefit SPCA Albrecht Center for Animal Welfare. In addition to the wholesome merits, there are plenty of root-tootin’, hoot n’ hollerin’ foot stompers dancing new skin on the bottom of the

Rainbow Kitten Surprise 4.28.18

The Ogden Theatre Denver, CO Words & photos by Charla Harvey Saturday night was Rainbow Kitten Surprise’s second night in Denver of their sold out tour. They decided to add a second night because the first show sold out so fast! This Boone, North Carolina-based band is relatively new to the scene, but their fan base is growing exponentially. In fact, they have sold out 35 out of the 37 shows on this tour! They even just received praise from VICE for their new music video “Hide,” which VICE called “The Most Moving Music Video of the Year.” The video gives a voice to four drag queens’ experiences in New Orleans, and it promotes being yourself no matter what. RKS is an alternative/indie band who have been influenced by Modest Mouse, Kings of Leon, Frank Ocean, Schoolboy Q, Lana del Rey, and the Avett Brothers. This beautiful combination of influences makes them hard to describe but easy to love. Samuel Melo is the lead vocalist and keyboardist. He also majored in dance in col
