After having been on a break, I'm getting back to chatting with people about music and the (hopeful) return of normalcy. Was happy to hear from a Denver band who I have not yet seen live, The Lost Dolls, and talk about what they have…

I have chatted with Denver musician Dan Aid many times over the past few years... about his former band Wiredogs... about a more singer-songwriter style solo project... and of course as a friend when we could go see him perform in those bands or Authority…

Hooray! I was able to do another socially distanced interview with Denver band Eldren last week. Band leaders Nasir Malik and Tyler Imbrogno jumped on the phone with me to talk about their new single, "Fell In," their video series of cover songs, and how…

Note: a portion of my tab was covered by Number Thirty Eight, but all words and photos are mine. "Did you change things for COVID, or was all this [waves hands] serendipitous?" That was my first question to Number Thirty Eight CEO Spencer Fronk as…

I was a bit desperate for a getaway recently, and we found a lull in all the chaos of the world to head over to Moab, Utah, from Denver for a few days. It's about a six-hour drive, give or take traffic, and we mostly…

As we look at the possibility of winter and beyond that will continue being socially distanced from friends, I've been compiling a list of date night ideas. But, you know what? These ideas for diversion as couple transcend our COVID-19 life and could apply anytime.…

This month, the world is still on fire - literally - so I have been collecting lots of music news to try and remind us of what life was like before 2020 knocked us for a loop. Check out my news section for other editions,…

(Just like everyone else) Our friends Jen and Mal started a podcast! But in typical awesome Jen and Mal fashion, it's on a fun topic and involves alcohol. Let's Get Drunk and Talk about Your Wedding. Bryan and I appeared on it recently, and talked…

It's officially the holidays, because we have our Top Ten bands for the Denver Hometown for the Holidays contest. Sure, 2020 has been crazy so it's affected everything, including HTFTH - but it's pretty much the only event that KTCL Channel 93.3 has been able…

For years, my pal DJ Alf and I have played Whamageddon with such determined fierceness that we texted each other at least daily – if not hourly – with updates. Um, what *is* Whamageddon, anyway? It's that fun game where you try to avoid hearing…

It's no secret I am a big fan of CITRA; not only are they a great Denver band - but they are great friends. We were lucky to catch their very small show at The Oriental last weekend, with only a handful of fans –…

I have always been the gal who drinks light beer, especially at concerts. It's simple and everyone has it. But since being in quarantine, I have branched out a bit - while still keeping it simple. The first drink below (basically an overload of coconut)…

Since we are all craving going out right now, some friends invited us to a Zoom dance party last night. Honestly, it was one of the most fun things we have done since lockdown started. But, since several of us are tech-minded and we still…

I have been working remotely for nine years now. But I almost always have clients enter the meeting with video off under the guise (and truth!) that I am just going to share my screen. Since we have been in quarantine, clicking that link to…
