105.5 The Colorado Sound's Featured Artists105.5 The Colorado Sound – Top Picks You Should Hear In JulyLake Street Dive vocalist Rachael Price says she’s this generation’s heir apparent to Bonnie Raitt. You’ll hear it in the torch of “I Can Change” and the defiant grit of “Good Kisser.” Their seventh album Free Yourself Up proves this is no novelty act. Dr. Dog’s new album Critical Equation is the band’s first album of new material in over 5 years. On his third solo album, Call The Comet, Johnny Marr seems at long last to have found his voice, literally. It’s rare to have the first song you record top the charts, but that’s exactly what happened to Alice Merton.BandWagon Magazine · Jul 1, 2018
ReviewsAlbum Review: Heavy Beauty – Self-Titled EPThe Golden-based “Desert Grass” quartet Heavy Beauty has a clean but unfiltered sound to their work. The three songs on the EP – “Dreams,” “Butterflies” and “Stars” – are simple but elegant. They possess a slow, even flow to their singing that never stutters or overpowers certain elements. Dobro player Mike Testagrossa, bassist Angel Edgemon and Willie Thomas on the mandolin provide vocals, with Dax Hunter Jordan on drums.Jay Wallace · Jul 1, 2018
ReviewsAlbum Review: I Am The Owl – A Mission to Civilize: Part III Am The Owl’s newest release is for longtime fans of the Fort Collins punk/metal band and new listeners alike. Recorded at the Blasting Room, a heavy hitting local recording studio readers should familiarize themselves with (if you haven’t already), A Mission to Civilize: Part II rips. Fans of the hybrid genre will dig the searing guitars and signature “tight, but huge” drums. Following up their first release, A Mission to Civilize: Part I, the new drop expands on I Am The Owl’s galvanizing sound with much-welcomed production value increase. Fans of local DIY punk rock, don’t let that turn you off.Michael Olivier · Jul 1, 2018
