Hitting the Right Notes at The Up and Under
As the sun dips below the horizon, the air is alive with the sound of music drifting across the patio of The Up and Under. It’s the start of another evening in our summer concert series, and the stage is set for a night of hick-hop harmony that’s sure to get the crowd on their feet.
I’ve been coming to these shows for years, and there’s just something magical about the way the eclectic mix of genres and styles come together under the starry Evergreen sky. It’s like a musical melting pot, where the boundaries between country, rock, and hip-hop blur, creating a sound that’s uniquely our own.
And let me tell you, the talent we’ve lined up this season is nothing short of impressive.
A Diverse Lineup of Musical Maestros
Don Chicharrón: Chicha Champ
First up, we’ve got Don Chicharrón, the mastermind behind the irresistible Chicha sound. This Peruvian-American virtuoso has a way of blending 60s psychedelia, Andean folk, and Afro-Cuban cumbia that’ll have you swaying and shimmying in no time. I’m telling you, the guy’s a wizard with a guitar, and his infectious energy is guaranteed to get the party started.
Midday Sons: Colorado’s Cosmic Country Crooners
Next up, we’ve got the Midday Sons, a Colorado-based quintet that’s been tearing up stages across the state with their unique brand of alt-country, new grass, and rock-n-roll. These guys have got the chops to cover everything from Johnny Cash to Grateful Dead, but they really shine when they’re playing their own original tunes. I’m telling you, their harmonies are tight enough to make your hair stand on end.
Public Picasso: Indie Pop with a Psychedelic Twist
And let’s not forget Public Picasso, the up-and-coming indie pop outfit hailing from the mountains above Denver. These guys have got a sound that’s equal parts Peach Pit and Nirvana, with a healthy dose of Velvet Underground-inspired psychedelia thrown in for good measure. Trust me, you’re not gonna want to miss their set – it’s like a sonic kaleidoscope that’ll have you dancing from the first chord.
Drew Dvorchak Band: Blues-Rock Meets Psychedelic Funk
Of course, no summer concert series would be complete without a little blues-rock action, and that’s where the Drew Dvorchak Band comes in. These guys are a force to be reckoned with, blending traditional folk styles with a healthy dose of psychedelic funk. And let me tell you, their lead guitarist, Drew Dvorchak, is a virtuoso in his own right – the guy can make that axe sing like nobody’s business.
The Tyler Phillips Show: High-Energy Poetry and Mountain Rock
But the real showstopper of the lineup has got to be The Tyler Phillips Show. This Colorado-based multi-instrumentalist is a poet, songwriter, and producer all wrapped into one, and he’s got a way of fusing high-energy blues, Americana, and mountain rock that’ll have you jumping and jiving from the first chord. I’ve seen these guys live before, and let me tell you, it’s an experience you don’t want to miss.
A Cornucopia of Musical Delights
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg, my friends. We’ve got a whole slew of other acts on the bill, from the soulful folk stylings of Porch Moment to the genre-bending grooves of the Living Room Band. It’s like a musical smorgasbord, with something to satisfy every palate.
So, what are you waiting for? Head on over to The Up and Under and get ready to immerse yourself in a summer of Hops and Harmony. Trust me, your ears (and your dancing shoes) will thank you.
