FeaturesTrying To Catch A Wave: Murs & The Music District Bring Open Mic Hip Hop BackMurs was well aware the open mic part of hip-hop culture was dying, or at least inching toward its last breath.Kyle Eustice · Dec 3, 2019MusicAlbum Review: Mitchell James – Further NoticeHave you ever been so fed up with your 9-to-5 that you decided to quit your job and pursue your true calling?Doc Dee · Dec 4, 2019ReviewsAlbum Review: People In General – PigletPeople In General is a self-described jazz-pop band out of Fort Collins, though their new record ‘Piglet’ is no One-Note-Samba. Delivering complex sound behind the cutesy lyrics guitarist Abe Dashnaw sings, the trio deftly use the technicality of their compositions to draw the listener in without being heavy and pretentious.Jay Wallace · Dec 6, 2019MusicAlbum Review: The Great Salmon Famine – Kelp!The Great Salmon Famine’s newest release ‘Kelp!’ along with their recent, packed Aggie Theater CD release party are helping to solidify their place among the Burroughs, Silver & Gold and other stellar Northern Colorado bands of note. From breakneck speed funk to deep grooves, ‘Kelp!’ is a record no lover of good times can afford to miss.Daniel Thompson · Dec 8, 2019FeaturesBreaking the Cycle – UPLIFT: FOCO Plucks For a Good CauseAndy Whilden knew exactly who to turn to when he was putting together a house band for his first music festival: bluegrass players.Dan England · Dec 13, 2019105.5 The Colorado Sound's Featured ArtistsThe Colorado Sound’s My5 – December 2019 – Top 105 albums of 2019This month, the Colorado Sound’s My 5 is our choices for the Top 5 albums released in 2019.BandWagon Magazine · Dec 15, 2019FeaturesWildermiss: Star-Faced but GroundedIn many ways, Wildermiss made it big a couple years ago with their first album “Lost With You,” spawning regular rotation on 93.3 KTCL, performances at Red Rocks and a slot on Last Call With Carson Daly. But they’re not exactly flying in private jets when outside the comfort of Colorado. In fact, they’re still driving vans that suck. Wildermiss haven’t forgotten where they came from because they can’t afford it yet. And that’s reflected in their new album “In My Mind”.Valerie Vampola · Dec 16, 2019
