The Local 303: Colorado Artists We’re Featuring for November 2020 – Colorado Public Radio
This month we’re discovering new local musicians as well as celebrating new music from established Colorado acts.
Artists like Sydney Clapp cut her teeth in our scene performing with other bands and has recently debuted her first solo single. We also get to know a rock band that formed right before lockdown, Fern Roberts. Local favorites King Cardinal released new music this year as did Heavy Diamond Ring, Zach Heckendorf, and Nat Tate.
We also get to know emerging electronic mainstays Goslings and Liptruce; both acts have released their best music over the last year. John Lensing, who has spent much of 2020 being nomadic, used to pay his rent by performing on the 16th Street Mall. He has a kind-hearted new single that you will hear this month on Indie 102.3.
Lastly, we’ll profile emerging talent you should know who have already blown up on Spotify like Dafna, ZEMBU, and Rossini. Get to know the artists below, from their own words about navigating life as a musician during a global pandemic.
Meet the musicians (Virtually): We will livestream our Local 303 Meetup on Nov. 9 at 4 p.m. MT on our homepage or watch from our YouTube page.
