Music Blog

Some of our local music makers have material available at the library. Check them out, and then go see them around town!

For more local music goodness, check out DPL's local music portal. And for even more, scope out local music sites Reverb, Westword, and the AV Club.

(Click here to see all the albums listed below on one page in the catalog.)

Nathaniel Rateliff / The Wheel

Rateliff, who has perfromed as The Wheel, is Westword's Best Singer-songwriter of 2010 and has two albums here.

In Memory of Loss as Nathaniel Rateliff.
Desire and dissolving men as The Wheel.

The Knew

Fun, long-haired guitar rock. DPL has two EPs—

Boom Bust, and
Holladay.

Before It Ends, a third EP, is available as a free download on their bandcamp page, and more tunes are on their MySpace.

DeVotchKa

Denver darlings DeVotchKa are well represented in our catalog. If you're inclined, catch them this Saturday (2/12) at their Valentine's Day Gala and CD Release Party.

Slim Cessna's Auto Club

Slim Cessna is an alt-country/rockabilly band who has played a New Years Eve show at the Bluebird Theater for the last ten years.

3OH!3

This electro-pop duo from Boulder has collaborated with Katie Perry and Ke$ha, which pretty much tells you what you need to know about their sound.

Flobots

A rock/hip-hop group whose musical chops are attested to by the fact that band member Brer Rabbit was named the Denver Post's 2010 Songwriter of the Year, and whose community investment is evident in their outreach and after-school music programs.
