Sara Century

CENTURY SINGS SOME SONGS

At first, I didn't understand Denver's avant garde singer, songwriter, cartoonist, writer, Baby Hair creator, performer, artist Sara Century. Then something happened and it clicked and I fell in some kind of love. I realized our similarities and the importance of her work. Stay positive. Fuck everything. 

Set List:

LOST

StaG

THE BAND IS UNBELIEVABLY GOOD STREAM NOOOW

I followed StaG a ways back and thought, yes, this is nice. Nothing struck me as TOO amazing. Then, Modbert hooked up this performance the night after their successful UMS show. Now "post local" StaG is operating out of L.A. and has their shit together and is a perfect example of a band that is growing and moving forward. Within a few minutes of this performance I thought, "they are probably going to "make it". OR something, whatever that means but seriously listen to this and watch for a new record from them coming soon. 

Set List:

LOST  

Neptune's Only Daughter

KINDA POST ROCK FROM BOULDER!  

It is no secret Boulder doesn't have a lot going for it in terms of a music scene that isn't jam, bluegrass, or EDM. I look elsewhere but this band made an impression and we were pleased. The songs are their own and they take themselves seriously...which isn't always a bad thing. 

Set List:

LOST

Little Fyodor

A LIVING LEGEND PLUS EXTRA GOOD INTERVIEW

If you don't get Little Fyodor then you just don't get IT. His records fill the 1190 stacks from years back and ARE the underground."More punk than the punks" Little Fyodor sings about things most people are afraid to talk about and what most people can't handle as truth....whatever THAT means.

The interview is extra LOL and we talk private parts, Elephant Six, Death Equinox, walking freak shows, drugs, the sun blowing up, and the new tribute record. 

Set List:

Soup in a Box - Let's Act Infantile 

the Lollygags - Christian Laytner

Spells - Slice Away

Thrifty Astronaut

THIS PERFORMANCE HAS PROFOUND EFFECT PLUS INTERVIEW GETS REAL REAL

"...a scary band. Sonically overwhelming". Thanks to Tom Murphy for the introduction to one of the most surreal Local Shakedown performances experienced. Be patient for the climax of this. Put on some headphones, (and to throw back to an 1190 past) shut up and LISTEN. Large metal drums filled with nails and other scraps of disturbing material traveled through contact mics. Noise. Screams. Haunting rhythms. Retaliation.

We talk Weather Underground, "revolutions start with one mind", the working class, and being humbled.
