Independent Journalism in Denver Needs You
We need to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
When you hear an act being referred to as a “musician’s band,” it usually means the band in question has incredible technical skill, but not a lot in the way of emotional resonance when it comes to songwriting — especially if the outfit is instrumental. Panal S.A. de C.V. (due at the hi-dive on Thursday, November 17) bucks that trend in every way imaginable. The band’s music, which speaks for itself, has evolved over the past several years. Panal has written some of the most interesting and evocative rock music to come out of Denver, partly because it knows how to speak directly and powerfully to the heart without having to spell everything out with words.
