Channel 93.3 is a big deal around Denver. They have launched the careers of many bands (most notably The Fray, but I could name a ton). When I was at Firefly recently and met the Unlikely Candidates, their first question for me and Monika when…

Fitz & The Tantrums at The Ogden in Denver

Posted on July 24, 2014

People often ask how I can stand being landlocked here in Denver, but the truth of the matter is 1) you get used to it, 2) you oddly feel safer, and 3) you enjoy the benefits of being a major crossroads city in the middle…

The Fray at Red Rocks

The Fray are cursed. Every single time they play at Red Rocks, it absolutely pours. As if Mother Nature grabs a huge bucket and dumps it on Morrison, Colorado, whenever she hears the first few notes of Over My Head. Not joking. DUMPS. I know,…

The Naked & Famous in Boulder

Note: The Naked and Famous provided tickets to the show but all photos and words are mine.

I can't remember the last time I attended an event at Boulder Theater, much less photographed a show there. Honestly - the massive construction on Route 36 has severed the cord between Denver and Boulder for months and months. But I absolutely made the trek for The Naked And Famous recently; I love their music and had heard they are amazing live. I listened to "Passive Me, Agressive You" so many times - if it were a cassette tape it would have snapped. My young son Dex knows the lyrics to "Young Blood" by heart. Their latest album "In Rolling Waves" is catching up quickly in the playcount as well - it feels a bit more moody to me, which suits my mood oftentimes in the mornings.

Sometimes I look through my concert calendar and notice that things are magically aligned. Much like when Bombay Music Club played Denver on my birthday this year. I have liked them for a long time, and I love their new album, "So Long, See You Tomorrow." What a perfect combination to head down to the Gothic to photograph the band *and* ask a bunch of friends to join the celebration.

Trombone Shorty

Note: Trombone Shorty provided concert tickets but all photos and words are mine.

I remember falling in love with Trombone Shorty's debut album "Backatown" in 2010 - but he really became a household name around these parts when he performed on Joe King (from The Fray)'s solo album. Shorty's second album "Say What To This" is just as amazing and I was absolutely thrilled to photograph his Denver show.

The Mowgli’s Concert

Note: The Mowgli's provided tickets for their show, but words and photos are mine.Last year, the song "San Francisco" was playing on pretty much every radio station in Denver. It's a seriously fun tune, and after seeing The Mowgli's live in concert, I can promise…
