This past weekend, Campout for the Cause returned to Salida this year with a new festival name called Smalltown for the Cause. While rain delays occurred Saturday (we only attended Friday), a handful of wonderful musicians performed throughout the day, highlighted by several sets from Lindsay Lou.
This past weekend on Friday night, Nashville country singer Sophia Scott performed an above average show that had the crowd dancing, especially during her second set at The Freight in Leadville.
Last week, ex fiddle player from Molly Tuttle's old band the Golden Highway performed an above average solo performance with her new band at The Lariat in Buena Vista, CO.
Legendary keyboardist of String Cheese Incident, Kyle Hollingsworth has released another studio album titled "All We Are" which was released earlier in August this year. The musician pumps out some jam friendly tunes on the new record, with similar beats and grooves to a String Cheese record mixed in with more indie sounds.
Last night, veteran Philadelphia jam band The Disco Biscuits filled up the Lawn outside of the Surf Hotel for a laser fed weekday evening. The show was better than usual, with superb sound and visuals throughout both sets.
While the headlining groups were mostly Colorado Bluegrass bands, Shelby Means, husband Joel Timmons and this time around, fiddler Maddie Denton from East Grass Nash filled in for an incredible set on Saturday afternoon for Colorado's 16th Annual Rapidgrass.
This past Friday night, veteran jam band heroes My Morning Jacket not only performed an incredible show at Red Rocks, but they played their album "Z" in its entirety.
