Bad Weather California Editor's Note: DeadJournalist.com takes a look at the Denver music scene in this article by Jamie Charmichael. The Denver Music Scene by Jamie Charmichael The Colorado music has had exponential recognition within the past few years for all types of music. Theaters, venues and record stores encourage all sounds and offer open booking and advertising plans throughout the state, yet most of the growth is in the diverse city of Denver. Local Denver papers [...]
J'ai fait la roue à l'écoute de ce titre de Mike Marchant paru sur son album Indulgent Space-Folk vol. 2 . J'ai pris la dernière cabine disponible, laissé porter au rythme des descentes et des montées... Repris un ticket, puis un troisième. La nuit venait de tomber, je ne touchais plus terre. Share This

Patience from the Grates by Primero Vicente Pantalones CLICK HERE TO SEE IVYY AND ANGORA'S DAY ONE DIARY CLICK HERE TO SEE THE BARTENDER'S DAY ONE DIARY 12:30 PM: Tailgatin' Ivyy- Ahhh, much better. 75 degrees and sunny, and we arrive early enough to the Red Rocks VIP parking lot to have a decent tailgate party before departing to see Jim McTurnan and The Kids That Killed The Man . We take the [...]
Sometimes I think Denver doesn't deserve some of the bands that reside here. The local support is at times pitiful. Why is that when a booking agent puts together a very respectable local line-up like last Sundays Benefit for Rich People at the Larimer - which had some of the best local music - less than a hundred people show up to the event? I think it's because Denver's average music fan is a four-show-a-year music idiot. This person will go to more festivals in a year than local shows – has a 60 gig iPod full of [...]
It is a well documented fact that I have a penchant for tall men, my dears. They look good (no, they look fucking GREAT) in jeans, they can get the cookie jar off the top shelf for you, and they play a mean game of Superman that just, it just really, it makes you feel like you're flying, lovelies. So this week's pick is almost TOO easy to feature, being as he's like 8 feet tall. This week's Denver's Most Fuckable Rockstar is… Mike from Widowers (and Houses)!!!!! [...]
Mike Marchant just won't relent on the songwriting process. Less than two month after his solo EP release, the setlists are comprised mostly of new material! This is a fun basement performance featuring Maria Kohler on accompanying vocals.

As Mike stated at the opening of his set, "Thank you very much for being here, we're shocked and appalled by the turnout." Never have I seen the Meadowlark as crowded as it was last night for Mike Marchant 's EP Release. Those brave enough to traverse the endless flow of bodies and get up front were treated to early performances by Ellison Park and Tim Pourbaix , Sunset Curse , and Achille Lauro . By the time Mike took the stage (accompanied by Cole Rudy, Maria Kohler, and his Widowers bandmates), [...]
As concerned citizens, Donnybrook turns our sharpened critical eyes on emerging artists - to make sure they're up to our standards, see? In this interview, Angora Holly Polo fires tough questions at Widowers' front man Mike Marchant , who is releasing a solo EP called "Outer Space and the Sea" January 9th at the Meadowlark. To get a sampling, click here or visit his Myspace! ahem. Question the First: You "say" you have "two" releases coming up, one that is a "solo" and [...]
"In August I bought a lap steel, left my girlfriend, and spent a month drinking too much whiskey and writing music," says Widowers front man Mike Marchant in a Donnybrook exclusive. "It was fun and slightly traumatic." Alongside the Widowers album currently being recorded, Marchant is releasing an additional E.P. of songs that don't fit into the Widowers album called "Outer Space and the Sea" - songs that are, shall we say, a little bit folkier? You be the judge! Two whiskey-soaked mp3s below, still dripping with the tears of a thousand breakups. For you, dear [...]
(Photo by Heather Browne .) I've had requests for several sets from the DPUMS songwriter showcase, presented by HomeVibe . Here's the entire collection of Saturday's performances. Levels vary greatly between sets and performers, so watch your speakers when listening to this one! Also, with so many artists, I struggled for titles on most songs. Please post a comment or email me if you have any setlist corrections. Singer-Songwriters in the Round 8.02.2008 HomeVibe Stage @ Denver Post Underground Music Showcase Sufi Rugs, [...]
