Today (Friday 07/08):
Boulder Sound Lab and Shantyman & The Speakeasies at Boulder House in Boulder 8PM-Close
Just last week we caught Boulder Sound Lab and Shantyman & The Speakeasies at KMG’s Zonnefest Showcase, and we liked what we heard. Tonight these two groups are sharing a stage again at Boulder House and we’re stoked on it. BSL, the “optimistic jam band with a party-funk sound” will headline the show following the funky jams of the Shantyman men. Both of these bands will keep you moving, and it’s Friday so go get to it!
