Bear in Heaven

hi-dive : Thu., July 29

The bear has replaced the wolf as indie rock's preferred animal, so it's appropriate that Bear in Heaven is one of the buzzier members of the genre, propelled in part by props bestowed upon it by — who else? — Ed Droste from Grizzly Bear. Droste's band is an okay place to start when... More >>

"Weird Al" Yankovic

Paramount Theatre : Thu., July 29, 8:00pm

Go Live: Live

Green Spaces Colorado : Thu., July 29, 6:00pm-9:00pm

There's no better way to describe Denver mover (and Westword MasterMind) Ashara Ekundayo than the way she does it herself: “I'm an artivist,” she proclaims. Her goal has always been to instigate change through a cultural lens, taking the sting out of race issues by blazing pathways of... More >>
