This Week In Concerts – Arcade Fire, Kesha, Russ and More

Well, this is officially the last week of October. Looking back on the month, the first snowfall caused a highly anticipated show to change venues, The Red Hot Chili Peppers made their return to Denver and now we get to wrap it all up with one final week of Denver concerts this month including the final Red Rocks show of the season (with the exception of New Years Eve). Join us, as we bid farewell to October with another great week of live music.

Monday, October 23

Coming out of a small town in Minnesota, hip-pop artist Call Me Karizma is headed to The Mile High City to headline The Moon Room at Summit Music Hall. The hustling singer-songwriter released three studio albums over the last two years with no signs of slowing down in the near future. Joining Call Me Karizma on “The Gloomy Tour” are alt-rockers A Summer High and Skyhaven making this a night of diverse talent at The Moon Room.

The talented singer and performer Kesha is making her way down to Denver on Tuesday for a night of new music at The Fillmore.

In August of this year, Kesha released Rainbow which showed us a new powerful insight into the singer’s world. We’re excited to see what her Denver performance will bring.
