SUMMARY:Toad the Wet Sprocket\, with Augustana
DESCRIPTION:Any music fan who grew up in the ‘90s\, before the rise of streaming platforms\, will tell you that when a record store clerk made a music recommendation\, you took it seriously. Often\, well-studied music nerds\, these unsung tastemakers had their finger on the pulse of lesser-known\, excellent bands. So it speaks volumes that many of Toad the Wet Sprocket’s earliest champions were record store clerks who put the Santa Barbara quartet’s early albums into unsuspecting listeners’ hands\, convincing them to overlook their unusual band name and give them a shot\, perhaps comparing them to R.E.M. \nThese four friends who met in a high school theater group were still just kids when they named themselves after a fictional band from a Monty Python skit and recorded Pale. Unbeknownst to many who thought they were fresh-faced and mild-mannered\, Toad the Wet Sprocket had a grass roots DIY aesthetic\, refusing to be pushed around by their record label and insisting on doing things their own way – an independent spirit they still maintain to this day. \n“We were young\, and it was us against the record company\,” Todd recalls of the band’s early days. “We turned down big amounts of money to sign with Columbia so we could have creative control. But we were always fighting them. They wanted us to appear on Dick Clark New Year’s Rockin’ Eve and lip sync\, but we didn’t want to do that. We had a bit of a punk-rock ethos.” \nWith the release of their timeless Rings: The Acoustic Sessions\, and 2026 being the 40th Anniversary as a band\, Toad will be on the road throughout 2026 and the album\, that was shared with fans gradually over the last year and had a limited edition vinyl package that sold out in 10 minutes. With Rings: The Acoustic Sessions\, Toad delivers more than an ‘unplugged’ greatest hits collection; more than a remastered retrospective glazed over with nostalgia. Rather\, they’ve captured the concentrated power of their best hits and deep cuts as they exist in this moment\, performed by the band as they are today. \nEven with everything that’s changed over the last few decades\, one of the band’s main drivers has remained the same since they first started performing together in high school: bringing people together to experience music as a binding force and to help them feel like they belong. “If you’re feeling isolated and you need to gather yourself back to remember how much you love your life\, music is your friend\,” Glen says. “We want people who come to our shows to feel at home for a while.” \nToad the Wet Sprocket with Augustana \nAugust 11 at 7:30 pm

SUMMARY:Herbie Hancock – 2 Nights!
DESCRIPTION:Recommended if you like: Miles Davis\, John Coltrane\, Chick Corea\, Duke Ellington \nNow in the seventh decade of his professional life\, Herbie Hancock remains where he has always been: at the forefront of world culture\, technology\, business and music. Herbie Hancock has been an integral part of every popular music movement since the 1960’s. As a member of the Miles Davis Quintet that pioneered a groundbreaking sound in jazz\, he also developed new approaches on his own recordings\, followed by his work in the 70s — with record-breaking albums such as “Headhunters” — that combined electric jazz with funk and rock in an innovative style that continues to influence contemporary music. “Rockit” and “Future Shock” marked Hancock’s foray into electronic dance sounds; during the same period he also continued to work in an acoustic setting with V.S.O.P. \nHancock received an Academy Award for his Round Midnight film score and 14 Grammy Awards\, including Album Of The Year for “River: The Joni Letters\,” and two 2011 Grammy Awards for the globally collaborative CD\, “The Imagine Project.” \nHancock serves as Creative Chair for Jazz for the Los Angeles Philharmonic Association and as Institute Chairman of the Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz. In 2011 Hancock was named a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador\, and in December of 2013\, received a Kennedy Center Honor. His memoir\, Herbie Hancock: Possibilities\, was published by Viking in 2014\, and in February 2016 he was awarded the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. \nHappens on the following Dates:\nAug 11\, 2026\, 7:30pm to 10:30pm\nAug 12\, 2026\, 7:30pm to 10:30pm

SUMMARY:Yonder Mountain String Band
DESCRIPTION:Grammy-nominated Yonder Mountain String Band has never chased trends or followed a formula. For 27 years\, they’ve made music on their own terms\, shaping a sound and a legacy driven by instinct\, built on chemistry\, and rooted in something real. Their influence helped steer progressive bluegrass into new territory\, creating space for two of the most visible and enduring sub-genres in American roots music. Within their first few years\, they brought bluegrass to rock stages\, premier festivals\, and mainstream audiences\, expanding the reach of acoustic music in ways that still echo through a new generation of artists. \n2026 marks a significant moment for Yonder\, with two album releases that reflect both where they are now and the moments that shaped them. Early on comes Good As True (2026)\, their twelfth studio album\, recorded live in the studio and filled with all-new original songs that explore communication: the things we say\, the things we mean\, and everything that gets lost in between. The album moves across the range Yonder has always embraced\, from high-energy bluegrass to songs that lean toward folk\, rock\, and indie influences. Later\, they’ll mark the long-awaited 20th anniversary (two years overdue) and first vinyl pressing of Mountain Tracks\, Vol. 3 (2004)\, the third installment in their celebrated live series\, recorded in 2003 at their Kinfolk Celebration at Planet Bluegrass. The reissue captures a defining moment in Yonder’s rise and honors their deep connection to Colorado\, where their journey began and where they’ve since been inducted into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame. \nNearly three decades in\, Yonder Mountain continues to unfold in real time on stage\, in song\, and in the shared moments that keep their music alive. \nYonder Mountain String Band\, with the Fretliners\nSaturday\, August 15 at 7:30 pm

SUMMARY:After Three Decades Together\, Denver Duo Perpetual Motion Releases Eighth Album\, Go With The Flow Free album pre-release concert August 15 at Vine Street Pub
DESCRIPTION:After Three Decades Together\, Denver Duo Perpetual Motion Releases Eighth Album\, Go With The Flow \nFree album pre-release concert August 15 at Vine Street Pub \nDENVER\, Colo. — After more than three decades of making music together\, Denver instrumental duo Perpetual Motion returns with Go With The Flow\, its eighth studio album. Shaped by seven years of performing\, teaching\, collaborating\, traveling\, and life’s unexpected turns\, the album reflects a musical journey that embraces change rather than resists it. \nThe duo will celebrate the release with a free pre-release concert on Saturday\, August 15\, at Vine Street Pub\, 1700 Vine Street in Denver. Music begins at 8 p.m. \nViolinist Josie Quick and guitarist Tom Carleno have spent more than 30 years creating original instrumental music that blends jazz\, folk\, world music\, and contemporary acoustic influences. During the seven years since their last studio release\, they continued performing throughout Colorado\, recording with other artists\, and allowing these new compositions to evolve naturally. Their recordings have earned honors from the Peace Song Awards\, Zone Music Reporter\, One World Music Awards\, Unisong International Song Contest\, and SongDoor International Songwriting Competition. \nGo With The Flow features eleven original compositions and two imaginative cover arrangements inspired by travel\, loss\, injury\, healing\, friendship\, and joy. Rather than following a single musical style\, the album embraces change\, weaving together diverse influences into a sound that is unmistakably Perpetual Motion. \nThe title track grew from an infectious groove and shifting time signatures that became a reminder to embrace life’s unexpected turns. Another composition\, “Water\, Light\, and Love\,” reflects on the simple elements that sustain life and our connection to the natural world. \nThe album also celebrates Colorado’s vibrant music community\, featuring percussionist Christian Teele\, cellist Hannah Alkire of Acoustic Eidolon\, bassist Blake Eberhard\, and cellist David Short. \n“These songs weren’t written to fit into a genre\,” says Quick. “They grew alongside everything else we were doing—performing\, collaborating\, teaching\, traveling\, and living life. There were challenges\, unexpected detours\, and moments of gratitude. Go With The Flow became the perfect title because that’s exactly what we do.” \nGo With The Flow will be released September 4\, exclusively on Bandcamp\, where listeners can purchase the album directly from the artists. \nEvent at a Glance \nWho: Perpetual Motion\nWhat: Go With The Flow Album Pre-Release Concert\nWhen: Saturday\, August 15\, 8:00 p.m.\nWhere: Vine Street Pub\, 1700 Vine Street\, Denver\nAdmission: Free\nAlbum Release: September 4 (Bandcamp exclusive) \nAbout Perpetual Motion \nPerpetual Motion is the Denver-based violin and guitar duo of Josie Quick and Tom Carleno. Known for inventive original compositions and imaginative reinterpretations of familiar songs\, they blend jazz\, folk\, world music\, and contemporary acoustic influences into an energetic\, genre-defying sound. For more than three decades\, they have performed throughout Colorado and beyond\, creating music that is melodic\, rhythmic\, and rooted in the joy of musical discovery. \nMedia Contact \nJosie Quick\nPerpetual Motion\n720-201-3234\njquick@ecentral.com\nwww.perpetual-motion.net \nHigh-resolution photos\, album artwork\, and review excerpts are available upon request. \nEarly Praise for Go With The Flow \n“Go With The Flow is as eclectic\, entertaining\, and vibrant as instrumental music can be… a standout example of world fusion instrumental music at its finest.”\n— Keith “MuzikMan” Hannaleck\, MuzikMan.net

SUMMARY:Tower of Power
DESCRIPTION:Tower of Power August 21 at 7:30 pm \nFor 58 years\, Tower of Power has delivered the best in funk and soul music. “We were a Soul band called The Motowns.” recalls Emilio Castillo. “Rocco was the bass player\, I was there\, and my brother was the drummer. I met “Doc” Kupka back in 1968\, and gave him an audition. He came in the band\, and we eventually changed our name to the Tower of Power.” The reason for the band name change was that they had a specific goal in mind.  \nEast Bay Grease defined their sound and landed them with Warner Brothers. Bump City\, their 1972 debut for the label\, was a hit on both the Billboard 200 and the R&B Albums chart\, and netted them the hits “You’re Still A Young Man” and “Down to The Nightclub.” The 70s were a boom period with radio classics like “So Very Hard to Go” and “What Is Hip?\,” and the band continued to tour and record over the years. Castillo says their love of the stage is the same today as it was back in 1968. \n50 years later\, in 2018\, they returned to Oakland to celebrate their landmark 50th anniversary. Tower’s window-rattling grooves and raucous party spirit has been a balm for the soul throughout their half-century existence\, but the release of 50 Years of Funk & Soul: Live at the Fox Theater couldn’t have arrived at a better time. \nThe band has long since surpassed Castillo’s modest aspirations\, traveling the world\, enjoying hit singles on their own and backing legendary artists including Otis Redding\, Elton John\, Santana\, the Grateful Dead\, John Lee Hooker\, Aerosmith\, Bonnie Raitt\, and countless others. In the process they’ve defined an “Oakland soul” sound as instantly recognizable as those from Castillo’s hometown\, Detroit\, as well as inspirations like Memphis and Philadelphia.  \nThe future of Tower of Power is set out to be vigorous and dynamic\, and will prove to be just that for fans around the world starved for the band’s groove just the way Tower of Power likes it!

SUMMARY:Preservation Hall Jazz Band
DESCRIPTION:Preservation Hall Jazz Band\nSaturday\, August 29 at 7:30 pm \nAt a moment when musical streams are crossing with unprecedented frequency\, it’s crucial to remember that throughout its history\, New Orleans has been the point at which sounds and cultures from around the world converge\, mingle\, and resurface\, transformed by the Crescent City’s inimitable spirit and joie de vivre. Nowhere is that idea more vividly embodied than in the Preservation Hall Jazz Band\, which has held the torch of New Orleans music aloft for more than 65 years\, all the while carrying it enthusiastically forward as a reminder that the history they were founded to preserve is a vibrantly living history. \nPHJB marches that tradition forward once again on So It Is. The album redefines what New Orleans music means today by tapping into a sonic continuum that stretches back to the city’s Afro-Cuban roots\, through its common ancestry with the Afrobeat of Fela Kuti and the Fire Music of Pharoah Sanders and John Coltrane\, and forward to cutting-edge artists with whom the PHJB have shared festival stages from Coachella to Newport\, including legends like Stevie Wonder\, Elvis Costello and the Grateful Dead and modern giants like Beck\, The Foo Fighters\, My Morning Jacket\, and the Black Keys.

SUMMARY:TajMo: Taj Mahal + Keb’ Mo’
DESCRIPTION:Recommended if you like: Buddy Guy\, North Mississippi Allstars\, Little Feat \nTaj Mahal doesn’t wait for permission. If a sound intrigues him\, he sets out to make it. If origins mystify him\, he moves to trace them. If rules get in his way\, he unapologetically breaks them. To Taj\, convention means nothing\, but traditions are holy. He has pushed music and culture forward\, all while looking lovingly back. \n“I just want to be able to make the music that I’m hearing come to me — and that’s what I did\,” Taj says. The 82-year-old is home in Berkeley\, reflecting on six + decades of music making. “When I say\, ‘I did\,’ I’m not coming from the ego. The music comes from somewhere. You’re just the conduit it comes through. \nYou’re there to receive the gift.” \nTaj is a towering musical figure — a legend who transcended the blues not by leaving them behind\, but by revealing their magnificent scope to the world. “The blues is bigger than most people think\,” he says. “You could hear Mozart play the blues. It might be more like a lament. It might be more melancholy. But I’m going to tell you: the blues is in there.” \nIf anyone knows where to find the blues\, it’s Taj. A brilliant artist with a musicologist’s mind\, he has pursued and elevated the roots of beloved sounds with boundless devotion and skill. Then\, as he traced origins to the American South\, the Caribbean\, Africa\, and elsewhere\, he created entirely new sounds\, over and over again. As a result\, he’s not only a god to rock-and-roll icons such as Eric Clapton and the Rolling Stones\, but also a hero to ambitious artists toiling in obscurity who are determined to combine sounds that have heretofore been ostracized from one another. No one is as simultaneously traditional and avant-garde. \nQuantifying Taj’s significance is impossible\, but people try anyway. A 2022 Grammy win for ‘Get On Board’ for his collaboration with Ry Cooder\, then a trip with his Sextet to Leon Russell’s Church Studio in Tulsa\, OK to record ‘Swingin’ Live at the Church Studio in Tulsa\,’ yet another Grammy win\, brought his Grammy tally to five wins and 16 nominations\, and underscored his undiminished relevance more than 50 years after his solo debut. Blues Hall of Fame membership\, a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Americana Music Association\, 2025 Recording Academy Lifetime Achievement Award Honoree and other honors punctuate his resumé. He appreciates the accolades\, but his motivation lies elsewhere. “It’s not a hunger\, not a lust or even a thirst\,” Taj says of what drives him. “It’s just more knowledge of self — to realize that almost everything is right here. We’re so used to looking outside of ourselves for things\, and it’s right here.” \nTaj’s exploration of music began as an exploration of self. He was born in 1942 in Harlem to musical parents — his father was a jazz pianist with Caribbean roots; mother was a gospel-singing schoolteacher from South Carolina — who cultivated an appreciation for both personal history and the arts in their son. “I was raised really conscious of my African roots\,” Taj says. “So I was trying to find out: where does what we do here connect to what we left there?” In the early 1950s\, his family moved to Springfield\, Massachusetts — a microcosmic melting pot for immigrants from across the globe: the Caribbean\, the American South\, Europe\, the Mediterranean\, Syria\, Lebanon. “Music was everywhere\,” he says. “Things were different in those days. There weren’t a lot of places that African Americans had to go out to entertain themselves. So people did a lot of entertaining in their homes. Friday or Saturday night\, you’d move the furniture\, mop and wax the floor\, and set things up so people could pop over and hear all the music.” Musicians and friends from around the world passed through\, ate home-cooked feasts\, and led neighborhood jam sessions and dance parties in cozy living rooms. \nFrom the beginning\, Taj found the blues magnetic\, even as most artists around him in the Northeast were exploring other sounds. “I could hear little strains of the blues coming through — you could feel that energy in the music that was being played\,” he says. “I could also feel that energy of the blues inside myself.” Piano lessons didn’t stick — “I’d already heard what I wanted to play” – so when a blues guitarist from North Carolina moved in next door\, Taj found an early mentor and was off. \nFor college\, Taj attended the University of Massachusetts Amherst. He graduated after studying agriculture and animal husbandry. “I knew I’d like to connect myself to something on this planet that’s meaningful\,” he says. “That’s why I was interested in agriculture and music. Those were the two things that I recognized even as a very young child that people are never going to do without.” \nIn 1964\, Taj packed up and headed west. In Los Angeles\, he formed six-piece the Rising Sons with Ry Cooder. The group opened for Otis Redding\, the Temptations\, and more\, and recorded an album\, but it wasn’t released until about 30 years later. “I guess that’s when they decided\, ‘Whoa. I guess this guy is real\,'” Taj says\, with a hint of a smirk. He’s referring to record executives — a breed for whom he has little patience. “For me\, playing the old music was a refuge from all the stupid stuff that was going on\,” he says\, pausing for a moment to point out commercialization’s limiting effects on what was both recorded and heard. \nIn 1967\, Taj’s self-titled debut announced the arrival of bold young bluesman. The following year ushered in two milestones: sophomore album The Natch’l Blues dropped\, and Taj performed in The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus\, a film featuring performances from the Stones\, The Who\, Marianne Faithfull\, Martha and the Vandellas\, and others meant for the BBC but pulled and kept from public eyes until 1996. In 1969\, full of music and only just beginning\, Taj released Giant Step / De Ole Folks at Home\, a massive double album that hinted at Taj’s refusal to be boxed in. \nThe 70s were a productive and ambitious recording period for Taj that included the Grammy-nominated soundtrack for the film Sounder. He began experimenting with global fusions and flirtations\, signaling to listeners his restless intention to discover both new and old and disregard commercially imposed boundaries. In the 80s\, Taj moved to Hawaii\, and fell in love with sounds native to the island as he toured constantly\, internationally. His gritty blues began to incorporate Latin\, reggae\, Caribbean\, calypso\, cajun\, jazz\, and more\, all layered over a distinctly Afrocentric roots base he’d been raised to rediscover. \nFor Taj\, the 90s were incredibly prolific. Back-to-back Grammy wins for the Best Contemporary Blues Album recognized two dynamic projects with the Phantom Blues Band: Señor Blues and Shoutin’ in Key. “I noticed that when it came to complicated pieces of blues music\, they’d never get played\,” Taj says. “It’s one of the reasons we put Señor Blues out — to say\, ‘You guys\, you know there is more that just the same old [imitates a beat] di da di di di da.’ It’s good when you believe it when you’re playing it. But just to play it as a cliche? That’s real boring. And real tiring.” Collaborations with Hawaiian\, African\, Indian\, and other musicians helped define his decade. \nOver the years\, Taj had also emerged as a mind-boggling\, multifaceted player. In addition to the guitar\, he has become proficient on about 20 different instruments — and counting. “There weren’t an awful lot of people still playing these instruments that came from my culture\,” Taj explains. “Not that they didn’t before\, but nobody was playing them in the time I was. But I wanted to hear them. So I watched people play\, got one\, sat down\, remembered the music that I was listening to\, and started picking it out on the mandolin or banjo or 12-string.” \nTaj didn’t slow down as he entered the 21st century. Maestro\, marking the 40th anniversary of his recording career and featuring a global mix of voices ranging from Angelique Kidjo to Los Lobos to Ziggy Marley to Ben Harper\, dropped in 2008. In 2017\, his highly anticipated collaboration with Keb’ Mo’ — TajMo — netted Taj his third Grammy. Their partnership continued in 2023-24 when they regrouped to record the follow up TajMo record due out in Spring 2025. 2022’s Grammy for ‘Get on Board’ with Ry Cooder\, Taj’s live record from the Church Studio in Tulsa\, ‘Savoy’ are amongst a few of the several projects he is either touring behind or currently in the works\, as Taj remains excited by fresh young voices trying new things and exhumed treasures that have been buried too long. \nAs Taj thinks about the dozens and dozens of albums\, collaborations\, live experiences\, and captured sounds\, he finds satisfaction in one main idea. “As long as I’m never sitting here\, saying to myself\, ‘You know? You had an idea 50 years ago\, and you didn’t follow through\,’ I’m really happy\,” he says. “It doesn’t even matter that other people get to hear it. It matters that I get to hear it — that I did it.” \n  \nKeb’ Mo’\nWith five GRAMMYs\, 14 Blues Foundation Awards\, and a groundbreaking career spanning nearly 50 years under his belt\, Keb’ Mo’s got nothing left to prove. Just don’t tell him that. \nBorn and raised in Compton\, Keb’ began his remarkable journey at the age of 21\, when he landed his first major gig playing with Jefferson Airplane violinist Papa John Creach. For the next 20 years\, Keb’ would work primarily behind the scenes\, establishing himself as a respected guitarist\, songwriter\, and arranger with a unique gift for linking the past and present in his evocative playing and singing. In 1994 he would introduce the world to Keb’ Mo’ with the release of his widely acclaimed self-titled debut. Critics were quick to take note of Keb’s modern\, genre-bending take on old school sounds\, and two years later\, he garnered his first GRAMMY Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album with Just Like You. In the decades to come\, Keb’ would take home four more GRAMMY Awards; top the Billboard Blues Chart seven times; perform everywhere from Carnegie Hall to The White House; collaborate with many including Taj Mahal\, Willie Nelson\, Bonnie Raitt\, The Chicks\, and Lyle Lovett; have compositions recorded and sampled by artists as diverse as B.B. King\, Zac Brown\, and BTS; release signature guitars with both Gibson and Martin; compose music for television series like Mike and Molly\, Memphis Beat\, B Positive\, Leanne\, and Martha Stewart Living; and earn the Americana Music Association’s 2021 award for Lifetime Achievement in Performance. \nIn addition to his extraordinary musical output\, Keb’ also established himself as a captivating onscreen presence over the years\, appearing as himself in Martin Scorcese’s The Blues\, Aaron Sorkin’s The West Wing\, and even the iconic children’s series Sesame Street. He flexed his acting chops in a wide variety of projects\, as well\, portraying Robert Johnson in the 1998 documentary Can’t You Hear The Wind Howl\, Howlin’ Wolf on CMT’s Sun Records\, and the ghostly bluesman Possum in John Sayles’ 2007 film Honeydripper. A fixture on late night TV and award show stages\, Keb’ has also performed on Letterman\, Leno\, Conan\, Colbert\, and Austin City Limits in addition to appearing on nationally televised broadcasts from The Kennedy Center\, The Ryman Auditorium\, and Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Festival. \nA passionate philanthropist and outspoken activist\, Keb’ has helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars in support of social\, environmental\, and racial justice throughout his career. As a celebrity mentor with The Kennedy Center’s Turnaround Arts Program\, which began under the guidance of First Lady Michelle Obama and the President’s Committee for the Arts and Humanities\, Keb’ “adopted” The Johnson School for Excellence in Chicago\, where he teamed up with teachers\, students\, and parents to help develop a thriving arts education program\, and as a longtime ambassador for the Playing For Change Foundation\, he’s supported the non-profit from its early days in its quest to provide free music education and basic needs like food\, water\, medicine\, clothing\, books\, and school supplies to children around the world. \n

SUMMARY:Boulder Ballet: [In]Human
DESCRIPTION:Boulder Ballet launches its 2026–2027 season at Chautauqua Auditorium with [In]Human\, a bold and versatile program that explores the intersection of instinct and identity through three striking contemporary works. \nThe evening opens with Over Glow\, a refined yet playful exploration of movement and light. Set within a shifting palette of color\, the work moves with exhilarating speed and physicality. Sleek ensemble passages and intimate duets reveal a world that is both kinetic and luminous. \nIn Sun & Steel\, choreographer Ben Needham-Wood reimagines and expands his earlier work into something primal and visceral. Set to the hypnotic score of Philip Glass\, the piece dives into the tension between body and spirit – where flesh meets intention\, and strength meets surrender. Athletic and unrelenting\, it asks: where do we locate ourselves within our own physical humanity? \nThe program concludes with Natasha Adorlee’s How to Build a Dream Apparatus\, a richly theatrical and character-driven world inspired by the music of Andrew Bird. Five distinct voices – The Builder\, The Dreamer\, The Mechanic\, The Performer\, and The Traveler – come together to construct something both mysterious and alive. What begins as fragments evolves into a poetic\, shared creation: part invention\, part sculpture\, part dream. \nDynamic and imaginative\, InHuman reveals the many ways we build meaning – through motion\, connection\, and through the stories we carry in our bodies. \n
