Kirkland’s mastery of the blues has brought him international recognition for his performances with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, the Royal Musicians of Nepal, Willie Nelson, Chuck Berry, and national tours with country and Broadway star, Gary Morris.
Kirkland’s musical training and performing began at age 6 in Winterville, Georgia. He learned to sing the blues on the assembly line in Kansas City while working his way through college. Three days after earning his B.A. degree in psychology , his first blues band was born in St. Louis. folk, progressive jazz, and blues. Toss in some classic rock and gypsy swing, and you have an evening filled with musical adventure.

Mirror Fears
Mirror Fears is dark, dreamy, richly melodic, fun, weird, and harsh. Kate began recording 4-tracks and teaching herself how to use music software at around age 20. As several bands formed and dissolved in the next few years, complete control over her own music became increasingly more appealing. She released her first self-titled EP as Mirror Fears in late 2010, and was just beginning to play out when she met the friends who would become the band Talk All Night. Since 2011, Kate has been enjoying partitioning her time between the two projects. The first full-length Mirror Fears album was finished as new years struck 2012, and following years would bear witness to many performances both in and out of Colorado, multiple releases, and collaboration with artists such as Hollow Press, Time, Doctype, Dangerous Nonsense, and Curta. Lyrically, Mirror Fears explores gender binary deconstruction, the freedom of queerness, Catholic guilt, the contradictory nature of capitalism, the absurdity of self-consciousness, desire, the power of names, and other stuff like scratched CDs, sniper rifles, and bugs. Musically, Mirror Fears is all of the lushness and vibrance of 90’s dark wave combined with modernized industrial IDM electronica.
Church fire
David Samuelson and Shannon Webber form the creative power behind Denver’s “majestic, witchy, up-to-no-good” electronic noisepop duo church fire. Webber’s strange, twitchy and ravishing vocals have complimented Samuelson’s artful darkwave compositions since the group formed in 2012. Sculpted from a sense of balance in opposites – light and dark, soft but aggressive and a spiritual reclamation of the divine feminine – church fire’s fantastical visual and aural creations consistently deliver a live performance like no other.

Sophie is a young orphan girl living in an orphanage run by the cantankerous and abusive Mrs. Clonkers. One night, Sophie sees a cloaked giant blowing something through a trumpet into a bedroom window down the street; whereupon the giant notices her and carries her to his homeland of Giant Country. There, he identifies himself as the Big Friendly Giant, who, at night, blows dreams into the bedrooms of children, while the other giants are man-eating, and they prefer children. Because the BFG refuses to eat people or steal food from humans, he subsists on a revolting vegetable known as a “Snozzcumber”. Sophie and the BFG quickly become friends; but Sophie is soon put in danger by the sudden arrival of the Bloodbottler giant, who suspects the BFG of harbouring a human.

Fans of taikō drumming, teriyaki chicken, and vintage Japanese textiles won’t want to miss this year’s Cherry Blossom Festival (in Japanese, Sakura Matsuri).

Among the entertainment will be Denver Taiko, whose rousing drum performances have in past years drawn the festival’s biggest crowds, as well as performances of Japanese dance, koto and shamisen, and martial arts. Inside the Tri-State/Denver Buddhist Temple, attendees will find exhibits of ikebana (flower arrangement) and bonsai, and informative lectures on Buddhism. The temple’s gymnasium is home to a variety of food and drink, including the popular teriyaki chicken dinner plate, sushi, and delicious Japanese sweets called manju and mochi. Volunteers will be pouring complementary hot green tea, but if that’s too much heat on a warm summer day, head to one of our two beer gardens for a cold glass and a refreshing bowl of chilled somen (noodles). Be sure to try the special Sakura Matsuri craft brew made by our neighbor, Jagged Mountain Brewery. If sake is more to your liking, try Portland-based Sake One’s offerings.

Evan Holm
The Evan Holm Band is a 6 piece rock & roll group that plays confessional, moody grooves written by singer Evan Holm. Leading up to a debut summer EP release, Holm has been recruiting some of Denver music’s heavy hitters to help deliver soulful, dark and original performance’s. Cole Rudy – Lapsteel (Dragondeer,) Cody Coffee – 12 string (Ancient Elk) Tayler Doyle – Guitar (KinkyFingers) Casey Sidwell – Bass (Dragondeer) Carl Sorenson – Drums (Chimney Choir)
King Cardinal
Any flannel-clad Bon Iver disciple can pick up an acoustic guitar and throw together a few bleeding-heart tunes dealing with well-worn folk tropes like love, loss and atonement. But only a select few can dig deep enough to transform cliche into palpable, gut-wrenching feeling. Enter Brennan Mackey, brainchild behind Denver-based alt-folk outfit King Cardinal.
