    Pigeons Playing Ping Pong

    Baltimore psychedelic-funk quartet, eight albums in

    Bio

    For Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, music is a living flame—one demanding relentless tending, fresh kindling, and the collective breath of community to sustain it. On their eighth studio album, Feed The Fire (No Coincidence Records), the Baltimore quartet—"Scrambled Greg" Ormont [vocals, guitar], Jeremy Schon [guitar, vocals], Ben Carrey [bass, vocals], and Alex "Gator" Petropulos [drums, vocals]—push their psychedelic funk odyssey into its most expansive incarnation yet. Across sixteen years, eight albums, and countless sweat-soaked performances, Pigeons have mastered transformation, deepening their connection with their devoted fanbase and channeling life's seismic shifts into fuel for their unquenchable fire.

  • Andy Frasco & The U.N. play under gold lights to a packed crowd, some fans in grey hooded costumes, one in white face paint.

    Andy Frasco & The U.N.

    A rock 'n' roll party band with a stage-diving frontman

    Bio

    Andy Frasco is a band-fronting, songwriting party animal who turns into a swirling rock 'n' roll Tasmanian Devil onstage leading his U.N., not unlike Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band. From switching instruments mid-song to stagediving into the crowd or kibitzing with them, an Andy Frasco & The U.N. show is a celebration of inclusivity and tolerance where "You do You" and "let us do us."

  • Gasoline Lollipops

    Punk-fired rock & roll meets folk, country and roadhouse R&B

    Bio

    Gasoline Lollipops have been genre-benders and boundary-breakers, fusing the ferocity of punk-injected rock & roll with the rawness of folk music, the storytelling of country, and the soul of roadhouse R&B. Over the course of six albums, they've explored the far corners of amplified American roots music.

  • Rick Lewis Project

Formed in 1997 by the award-winning radio broadcaster and musician Rick Lewis (of The Lewis and Floorwax Show), the band (previously The Groove Hawgs) has shared the stage with legendary acts such as Def Leppard, ZZ Top, Sammy Hagar, The Who, BB King, Heart, Steve Miller Band, and many others. Known for captivating audiences at Colorado's most iconic venues like Red Rocks, Ball Arena, and Fiddler's Green, RLP continues to be a staple in the region's music scene, delivering unforgettable live shows with an eclectic mix of genres.

  • Polkanauts

    Polka, plus metal, rock, punk and surf variations

    Bio

  • Buster & the Boomers

    Estes Park favorite, formerly The Really Most Sincerely Dead

    Denver DJ and producer; 2026 was his third year with us

    Bio

In one explosive year, Reed's DJ'd TEDx, Meow Wolf, Denver Art Museum, & opened for Flaming Lips' Brothers Griiin before getting nominated for Westword's best House DJ.
