105.5 The Colorado Sound Presents The Sheepdogs w/ Boy Golden

105.5 The Colorado Sound Presents The Sheepdogs with Boy Golden on Sunday, December 11th -16+, under 16 admitted with ticketed guardian Everybody could use a trip away from 2020 and 2021. Maybe just a weekend on the lake…even if it’s just a trip of the mind. The Sheepdogs’ No Simple Thing has the wattage to take you to that mental cottage with six new songs so summer-y you’ll only need to pack your jean shorts and flip flops. Recorded in Montreal at Mixart Studios (built by Mahogany Rush’s Frank Marino in the 70’s), this EP sees Saskatoon’s fave furry sons returning with their classic rock influenced sound. The rich harmonies and rounded guitar tones they’re known for are further refined, and “Like an experienced chef, the band keeps honing their recipes, constantly creating more complex yet subtle flavours,” lead singer and main songwriter Ewan Currie explains. Recorded in late summer 2020, all tracks were laid down live with every member on-site in a sprawling studio with old-school monitors on mammoth 2” analog tape. Unlike a lot of other remotely tracked pandemic rock, the Sheepdogs’ bubble of comradery enabled them to focus completely, with little else to do in Covid-restricted Montreal than kick out the jams. Their lead-off mission statement track of “Rock and Roll (Ain’t No Simple Thing)” boogies strong out of the gate paying tribute to the mysterious healing powers of rock music, Friday nights and summer flings. To show and not just tell, the intoxicating guitar solo that kicks off with a big tempo lunge puts those title brackets where their mouth is. As with all the band’s material, it’s reverent of rock history, yet Currie’s distinctive lead vocal continues to sound richly honest and never imitative as he urges you levitate with the band as the music “soothes your soul”. Not just the “Rolling Stone Cover Guys” anymore, the now-veteran band with 3 EP’s and 9 commercial releases under their belts (that all have cool big belt buckles on them) are far enough down the road to look back at how things were when they started on “Singing In The Band”. “It’s an ode to the working musician and that exciting first feeling of discovering the power of music, this new skill of relating through song.” Currie remembers. In this spirit, this six song EP is to be one of a number of shorter records to be released during these weird times to keep the lines of communication open with listeners. A first for the Sheepdogs, No Simple Thing’s piano-driven “Are You A Good Man?” was penned solely by brother/fellow Sheepdog Shamus and not by Ewan. Originally earmarked for their solo project Bros, it got flagged as more Sheepdogs territory and brought over into these sessions which resulted in this pensive soul-searching Beatles-esque side trip. Like always, the guitars are so big and woolly that they just might clog your drain, but none so pronounced as on the EP’s closer “Jesse Please” which starts out on the cottage dock and ends things at full Live at the Fillmore level intensity. “We always like to build songs into little cycles with distinct parts and this is one of them, but it started with me just writing it by the side of a lake,” Ewan recalls “and the guitar solo on ‘Jesse’ conveys the emotion as much or more than any of the lyrics in the song.”

Boy Named Banjo w/ Derek Dames Ohl

Globe Hall Presents Boy Named Banjo with Derek Dames Ohl on Wednesday, June 22nd -16+, under 16 admitted with ticketed guardian About Boy Named Banjo: Long before Boy Named Banjo, two of the founding members of the genre-bending band grew up a mile down the road from each other in Nashville. William Reames and Willard Logan both picked up the guitar at an early age, took lessons from the same teacher in town, and played in the same middle school band together. A shared love for bluegrass, folk, and singer/songwriter music sparked a new musical friendship between Reames and banjo player, Barton Davies. The two young musicians enthusiastically bounced songs off each other, discovering some of their favorite artists together, such as the Steeldrivers, John Hartford, and The Infamous Stringdusters. Before long, they were writing and performing songs of their own, and at the age of 16, they decided to form their own band. Only, they needed a mandolin player. That’s when they called Logan – and the two longtime friends, and now Davies, were bandmates once again. “We were still too young to step foot inside a bar when we first started to play,” Davies recalls, “so we’d set up shop on the sidewalk outside of Robert’s Western World in downtown Nashville and play our own songs for whomever would listen.” According to Davies – about halfway through one of their sets, a man came stumbling out of Robert’s, got in Barton’s face and yelled “play that thing, Banjo Boy! C’mon, Banjo!” Reames texted Davies later that night – “Boy Named Banjo.” With a brand-new name and a handful of original songs, the trio recorded The Tanglewood Sessions, giving fans an inside look into the lives of the young outfit and receiving unexpected praise. In 2013, Boy Named Banjo invited drummer Sam McCullough to join the group, before recording their sophomore album, Long Story Short (2014). In 2015, the band earned a spot on the lineup of their first major music festival, performing at Bonnaroo for the first time in their career. Shortly after releasing their Lost on Main EP in 2016, Boy Named Banjo found its missing piece, bass guitarist Ford Garrard. The group hit the road and haven’t stopped touring since. Boy Named Banjo has crafted a sound that incorporates an energetic blend of country, bluegrass, alt-rock, and folk-pop telling their stories through an honest, emotional, roots-driven perspective. In April 2020, Boy Named Banjo signed a record deal with Mercury Records Nashville and released their debut major label single, “Circles” in July 2021. The band is currently in the studio writing and recording their debut major label EP coming this Summer.

Channel 93.3 & Do303 Present N3ptune w/ Rusty Steve and Special Guests VYNYL and BLUSH

Channel 93.3 & Do303 Present N3ptune w/ Rusty Steve and Special Guests VYNYL and BLUSH on Friday, May 20th –Hailed as a “Denver Musician to Watch” by 303 Magazine, N3ptune is an explosive multi-hyphenate hailing from Denver, CO. A proudly queer singer/songwriter, producer, dancer, model, actor, and director, N3ptune is carving out a lane in Denver’s music scene, unlike anything that has come before.  Heavily influenced by his upbringing in the Baptist Church, N3ptune is a genre-bender who merges the essence of gospel, blues, and soul into an amalgamation of pop music as only his mind can create. His songs are bold and brash, and his live performances are raw and captivating, to the point where Sleigh Bells’ Alexis Krauss likened the experience to “seeing Prince live for the first time” and proceeded to invite him on their tour on the spot. Beginning his journey in the industry as a producer and singer/songwriter while he was in high school, N3ptune quickly became a staple in Denver’s burgeoning DIY scene. From headlining Denver’s Pridefest to holding down one of the city’s most talked about residencies at local staple, the Meadowlark, N3ptune’s quickly become a standout in the Denver’s music scene. In 2021, N3ptune took it up a notch. From putting on a breakthrough performance at Denver Fashion Week, to shutting down Westword Music Showcase, to supporting the likes of Wyclef Jean, Sleigh Bells, Kennyhoopla, and Aluna (of AlunaGeorge), and receiving placement on syndicated radio, KTCL Channel 93.3 with his hit single “Black Horse” all in a matter of weeks, N3ptune has proved he is ready for the national spotlight. RENAISSANCE, his highly anticipated debut album with producer Rusty Steve arrived on December 10, 2021 to critical acclaim. N3ptune will support the new album touring alongside Sleigh Bells in August 2022, performing at Treefort Music Festival, and other solo dates across the country.
