I am fortunate to live in such a great state. I am even more fortunate to be visiting my Grama in Arizona this weekend! However, the Grammys have decided to treat us all, in the Mountain Time Zone (edit: and Pacific Time Zone), as people who do not matter. Why? Because we are the ONLY time zone(s) that does not get to see the Grammys performed live! Why does this matter? In case you didn't realize, it is 2012. If you are 27 minutes late with the news, you are old school. Add another 33 minutes on to that? Chopped liver. So, why do the Grammys insist ...
Mike Doughty – Question Jar Show
I have had the pleasure of seeing Mike Doughty two times now, once was a Question Jar Show. What exactly does that mean? Well Mike allows the audience to ask any question they want and put it in a jar that he has on stage. In between songs, he will select a few and answer them. It's kind of like a VH1 Behind the Music. It was one of the most entertaining shows I have been too. Just so intimate, and I love that you feel like you actually get to know Mike as a person, not just a musician. Bummed you missed his show? You ...
Hot Wild Girls – Doritos Crash the Superbowl Video
There are only a few days left to go vote for the video Hot Wild Girls in the Dorito's Crash the Superbowl campaign! This video was created by Denver's own Brad Scott (who has done work with Tickle Me Pink, which is how I met him). Brandon from My Body Sings Electric (and Dirty Rotten Rhymers) even wrote a catchy song to go get you to vote: Confused because you haven't seen the video yet? NOW GO VOTE! Let's show the world what great talent we have here in Denver!
New Years Eve.
With 2012 being just around the corner, we're looking forward to a lot of new things. New events, new songs, new cds, new bands. The only thing is - what are we going to do for the New Year? Every year there are a ton of parties, this year has a ton of shows to offer that we don't wanna miss. However, at the end of the day, we do have to choose one (or two if we decide to disperse) events to enjoy and welcome the new year with. Although we can't make all of them, we really hope and highly recommend that you get ...
It’s the little things…
...that make me happy. When listening to Jimmy Eat World this morning I clicked on similar artists, and there was Tickle Me Pink!! I was so excited to see them listed with such great artists. var _qevents = _qevents || []; (function() { var elem = document.createElement('script'); elem.src = (document.location.protocol == "https:" ?

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 ...
Hometown for the Holidays 2011
Christmas has arrived early for me this year! And no, I am not talking about my new car (although that is a great Christmas gift. Thanks Mom and Dad!). Next week is the week that I will be listening to KTCL 93.3 as many hours of the day as possible. Why? Because it is Hometown for the Holidays!! You've never heard of Hometown for the Holidays (HTFTH)? Well, if you live in Denver and care about local music as much as me (or even just a little bit), then you have to join me and support 93.3 this week. Each year they hold this contest for local ...
