• Update: Westword Music Showcase line-up

  Update: As with year's past, before the ink's even dry on the schedule, we've had to make made some minor more changes. Among the recent ones: We've moved the metal showcase from Andrew's to Broadways (two doors down from Bar Standard, next to the pawnshop), and moved the punk line-up to Bannock Street Garage. We've also added two additional acts  (the Culhanes and Buckner Funken Jazz), and swapped the time slots of a few others at Dazzle.And in case you missed it last week, Andrea Ball is

  Another fun show last night. Andy was back from tour and as things worked out, we didn't have any guests, which meant less talk and more rock. In homage to Hot IQs, who recently announced their impending split, we kicked off the show with three back-to-back songs from the group, followed by our well wishes for a speedy recovery to Mike Marchant and a track from his latest record, and twenty-two more hand-picked local tracks -- including the broadcast debut of tunes by Vonnegut, Tyler Ward, Forth

• Bands for Lands wants to green the scene

  I had a very exciting conversation last week with Doug Bohm, co-founder of Bands for Lands. The Denver-based nonprofit, which has used live music and other arts to further the cause of conservation and sustainability for over a decade, is about to embark on a new initiative to increase awareness of these same issues within our city's live music venues, bars and clubs. The program, called Green the Scene, aims to decrease the negative impact that your favorite dive or dance club has on the enviro

• Westword Music Showcase reviewed: Fidel's Cantina

  Brian Landis FolkinsYerkish led off at Fidel's. See more photos from Fidel's at westword.com/slideshow. Yerkish, 12 p.m. The crowd inside the cramped cantina is building slowly as Yerkish takes the stage, and the band wastes no time in laying out its frenetic, frantic rhythms. It's a dynamic complimented by lead singer Tim Kaminski's impassioned, insistent vocals and the clean, driving guitar lines of Nate Huisgen and Tony Brown. The group's sound draws from multiple sources at once, easily in

• Score! Danielle Ate the Sandwich writes theme for Everyday, Boulder Acoustic Society appears in new Mini Cooper commercial and more

  So, it looks like our favorite singer-songwriter, Danielle Ate the Sandwich, has become everybody else's favorite, after all. Ms. Sandwich (or Ms. Anderson, if you prefer formality), appearing this Friday, June 26, on the Meadowlark patio, has garnered invitations to perform at the upcoming UMS and Monolith festivals, and was asked to write the theme for Everyday, a new afternoon talk show on Fox 31 hosted by Libby Weaver and Natalie Tysdal. And she's not the only local artist whose song are bei

  If you caught the show last night, we played it straight again, just like the old days, you know, just two turntables (well, CD decks) and a microphone(s). No dogs, no slogans, just great beer. We also featured a gaggle of new local music from Boulder Acoustic Society, Paper Bird, Joshua Novak, Pictureplane, the Legendary Beep Beeps, the Food Chain and the Fresh Breath Committee, along with some cuts we haven't played in a while.

  DanielK​After four albums, extensive touring and a decade together, Zebra Junction, who just took home honors at this year's Westword Music Showcase awards, will be playing its last show tonight in Golden at Parfet Park. Although the members intend to continue to collaborate and record music with one another, there's no plans to perform together live again -- until such time comes when an inevitable reunion years down the road beckons them to.

  ​We're not big sportos around here. We know, right? Hard to imagine. Folks who spend all of their time writing about, talking about, listening to, thinking about and making music, you'd think we'd all be big jocks, especially since we live in such a huge sports town. That in mind, we're not sure how big of a deal this is, but we just heard that Mayne Street, a show hosted by ESPN Sports Center's Kenny Mayne, has reupped with the Boulder Acoustic Society to continue providing music for the show
