Every so often we're incredibly lucky to be given a chance to listen to some of the first pieces of new upcoming music in our Denver scene. One of the best examples being some of Monika and I's favorites, Air Dubai. From having their music played on MTV's Jersey Shore and getting signed with Hopeless Records, to making a name for themselves in Denver and other states alike, Air Dubai has an incredibly bright future ahead of them - their new EP only reassures me of that blatant fact. The summer vibes that they create make everyone want to dance, make us forget that we have any ...
The Hate Album Release Show on 6/15 ft. In The Whale and All Capitals.
After an incredibly hectic week of concerts last week (what else is new), this week is nothing short of the exact same agenda. As I'm sure many of you are already planning, and if you're not you should be, Monika and I will be at Warped Tour this Sunday - we're stoked. It's going to be a really great weekend-topper even more so however when The Hate hosts their album release show at The Hi-Dive with In The Whale and All Capitals. I've had a couple chances to listen to the new album thanks to our good friend Mark, bassist for The Hate, and I'm more ...
Featured Band: The Say So
Down here at Indie Bitches we get to have some of the greatest experiences, from going to numerous shows in the Denver Metro area all the way to getting to listen to tracks before they're officially released. Thanks to alternative rock band The Say So, we were able to recieve a couple copies of their first CD before anyone else, set to be released on Friday, June 8th at The Hi-Dive with Take To The Oars (we sure do seem to mention these guys a lot) and Eldren. The Say So is a four part Denver-based band consisting of members Sean Palmer (vocals, guitar), Noah Fisher ...
Upcoming CD Release: Carbon Choir
I first fell in love with Carbon Choir months ago, their crystal-clear sound, soothing guitar chords and warm tones were something that really stuck to me. This band has the kind of effect where you can blast their music on your stereo while driving in your car to absolutely nowhere, just taking in the sun and thinking about life. Joel Van Horne's (lead singer) voice still gives me goosebumps every time I hit "play" on my iPod and that being said, Carbon Choir's interlocking sound of indie and alternative rock have boldly sufficed my music taste buds. Luckily, we here at Indie Bitches were given the pleasure ...
EP: In The Whale
It's a very good assumption that if you come to Indie Bitches, you're wanting to hear about Denver local bands, releases, shows, and events in general. By making that assumption, I'm guessing that most of you have heard of bands such as The Doors, The Black Keys, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and The White Stripes, right? Now another big question here is: what do these bands all have in common? Obviously they're all incredibly talented and well-known musicians, but did you happen to notice that they're successful without bass players? In The Whale is one of our local bands who was willing to take this risk. Their ...
Album: Air Dubai’s New EP; Day Escape
I've been sitting on the edge of my seat since last October, waiting for more Air Dubai. Although the Remixtape was released in March this year, hearing new music in any sense is always something that's refreshing. Day Escape (released on 10/25/11) is like a cold glass of water on a hot summer day, something that I know is helping this band grow and become even more amazing than they already are. Between the trumpet, guitar, bass, drums, and two voices that make angels in the sky stop and listen, this EP is the best thing to come from this incredibly talented ensemble yet. Obviously there ...
Album: American Volume; Take To The Oars
It's pretty common knowledge that between the two of us, Monika and I listen to more local music than anything else. Both of us are so involved in our lives on the web that we rarely have time to even buy CD's anymore, so just about every CD in our cars are those of the locals who tell us to listen to them. I can honestly say that I hadn't ever been to a Take To The Oars(formerly Vonnegut) show before or even heard them until the Underground Music Showcase, where I met lead singer, Ryan Gombeski, outside of Moe's BBQ after a My Body Sings Electric show, and The ...
