Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Looks like big ups are due Breathe Carolina, whose debut disc, It's Classy, Not Classic, released in mid-September on the Rise Records imprint, claimed the sixth spot on Billboard's Heat Seeker chart and #186 on the magazine's Top 200 chart. Not a bad first outing for a band that many folks in Denver still haven't even heard of yet. -- Dave Herrera
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
