Famethrowah
What does a nihilist in love sound like? Can a ukulele scream into the void? FAMETHROWAH has meager means to answer these questions. Armed only with tiny instruments and debatable sincerity, FAMETHROWAH’s only hope is to smash the flat time-disk with songs about singing songs about singing songs.

Roka Hueka
Frontman Andy Gonzalez brought his love for energetic ska from Chihuahua, Mexico to Denver, Colorado. Finding time from his job as a construction worker, he formed Roka Hueka in the fall of 2013. In May of 2016, the band released their first studio album simply titled, ‘Red’, which draws from diverse musical influences included funk, reggae, disco, soul and cumbia. Roka Hueka has shared the stage with international ska legends, The Slackers (New York City), Panteón Rococo (Mexico City) and Rabanes (Panama City). Roka has preformed at Denver’s major venues including The Bluebird Theatre, La Rumba, The Marquis Theater, Walnut Room, and Casselman’s. Roka Hueka brings an extremely high-energy performance and has a dedicated following among Latino immigrant communities as well as all fans of ska and reggae.
