Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Housed in what used to be Jonas Bros. Furs, the modern-day-speakeasy-themed Bar Standard is one of the best spots in Denver for live DJs. This popular nightclub is a mecca for lovers of electronic house and dance music of all styles, as well as the occasional live band, such as the Cool Kids — and its two patios provide a great place to take a break and admire the Denver skyline.
At this year's Westword Music Showcase on Saturday, June 24, the Bar Standard stage will deliver music guaranteed to bring on some head-banging, from punk rock to industrial electronic and heavy metal, with energetically irreverent tunes from Sliver, Little Fyodor, Cheap Perfume, Allout Helter, Hydraform, Muscle Beach and Native Daughters.
