One of the biggest things I always hear from bands is this: "We make most of our money selling merch on tour." Hard to believe, but true. So, in the spirit of supporting local music, I have collected the shops for Denver bands and venues…

As everyone has been asking, "what's the last concert you saw before lockdown?" these past two months - my answer is "The Unlikely Candidates at Bluebird Theater Denver." Which is why I couldn't bring myself to edit these photos all this time - that means…

It's true, I have been holding on to the last few shows I photographed and savoring them. One is the band Best Coast in Denver at the Ogden Theatre. Best Coast just released their first album in four years, with lots of focus on lead…

I remember like it was yesterday ... Thanksgiving 2019. We barely escaped Denver's biggest snowstorm of the year to head to Mía Reef Isla Mujeres, an all-inclusive resort on the north end of Isla Mujeres island, which is just off the coast from Cancun. By…

Note: Our meal was provided by Barcelona Wine Bar but words and photos are mine. We've been going to the RiNo District for years for music and fun, and watched the many changes that have made the area one of Denver's most popular night time…

Note: I am a promotional partner for Chicken Fight Fest. We had such a great time at last year's Chicken Fight Fest Denver! It was one of my favorite food tasting events and they are back again for 2020. The date is Thursday, May 21st…

As you can tell by the interview below, I love the band Geographer. Which, as of now, Geographer is actually the moniker of Mike Deni, which made it easier to get on the phone with "the band" recently, now that it's just one guy. One…

I recently was introduced to the music of Iggy T and The Crazymakers, and I fell in love. I was able to get on the phone with both Sarah Todd and David Franz - the primary folks behind the band - and it turns out…

Many people remember Miguel Dakota from America's Got Talent. But did you know he formed his current band around that same time – and they have been playing together ever since? Dream Feed consists of Dakota (Lead Vocals, Guitar), Ryan Wagner (Lead Guitar, Vocals), Will…

It's been fun curating "nice" news! While the world is still kind of on fire basically - it's great to hear that the music and travel industries are doing their best to find creative ways to bring the world joy. Check out my news section…

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)…

What's nice about being a music and travel blogger is all the fun mail I get! I'm serious! Every week, I get hundreds of tidbits about music news, new releases, videos, shows (well, I used to) and since I don't really feel qualified to be…

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…

Trigger Warning: Abuse and Sexism If you ask a woman about existing in a crowded public space, we all have stories about being rubbed up against or groped. Sometimes it's overt, sometimes it's someone brushing past and copping a feel so stealthily, we have no…
