From their serendipitous beginnings busking in the streets of Breckenridge to serenading thousands at Red Rocks Ampthitheater last year, these Denverite darlings have soaked in all the best their home state has to offer, and they're here to share some of that Colorado lovin' with us back-Easters. The septet's A Sky Underground EP — just reissued by Philly's own Park the Van — boasts a potent, passionate blend of old-timey mountain soul, feisty modern folk and a sprinkle of vintage hot jazz, replete with banjo, trombone and heavenly trio harmonies.
