It may have just been a fabulous holiday weekend, but there’s no time to slow down on amazing live music to go see. We’ve got a helluva lineup this week! Here are the highlights:
Some of the wildest musicians to come out of the already insane Australian music scene, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have returned to Colorado to tear up Red Rocks for three beautifully unhinged marathon sets: one on Sunday (9/8) with Geese opening up the evening, and TWO back-to-back shows on Monday (9/9). Three separate opportunities to catch a King Gizz marathon set means there’s just no excuse to miss these absolute rippers.
Alt-rock giants Incubus are coming to the Ball Arena on Monday (9/9) in celebration of the (delayed) 20th anniversary of their phenomenal 4th LP Morning View. Having released a re-recorded version of the album featuring some alternative arrangements and new band members, this will be a very special show for the old-school fans. Not only that, but they’ll have Coheed and Cambria on deck to start the evening out properly.
The ever-changing but always-rockin” Broken Social Scene is bringing its massive band and even bigger sound to Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom on Sunday (9/8) to perform its sophomore album You Forgot It In People in its entirety. To unite the crowd before the performance, legendary stand-up comedian Rory Scovel will deliver a brand new stand-up set special for Cervantes.
The rest of this week’s shows are below. As always, stay in the know about Denver’s music scene with 303 Magazine!
