News broke last week that local music non-profit Youth on Record was buying a stake in the Underground Music Showcase, one of Denver's biggest annual music festivals. But this is far from any run-of-the-mill music biz deal: YOR's Executive Director, Jami Duffy, sees the UMS as a platform to propel a “musicians' middle class” in Denver and beyond. Today on the show, Duffy chats with host Bree Davies about her long-term plans to turn a staple Denver music fest into a pipeline for careers in the arts, while also cultivating a better experience for music fans.

Host Bree Davies and the City Cast Denver team did a live podcast taping at this year's Underground Music Showcase. And now you can hear it! This candid conversation explores the idea of "diversity in music" and what that really means for performers of color. How does "diversity, equity and inclusion" truly extend to show booking, venue operations, and other positions of power within a music scene? Does representation go beyond the stage? As white folks scramble to "diversify," does it feel like anything meaningful is happening or changing for the actual artists? We're honored to be joined for this panel discussion by several guests from around the Denver music scene: Alicia "Bruce" Trujillo - Alicia "Bruce" Trujillo is a Chicana feminist from occupied Ute, Cheyenne, and Arapahoe land, in what's now called Colorado - raised on the Western Slope, and currently in Denver. Bruce has been working in the community and public media since 2012, with a mission to spotlight, book, and amplify the voices of those who are currently under-heard and underrepresented, with a focus on independent and locally made music and art. Bruce is Concert Director at Denver's Swallow Hill Music Association; a the weekend host on Colorado Public Radio's new music service, Indie 102.3, and is the creator of Especial, a weekly, hour long dive into new and independent Latin-made music from around the 'Americas' and en Colorado. She's also Executive Director and host of Colorful Colorado Collaborations, bringing together BIPOC businesses and musicians, and founder and host of Whiskey, Women and Song, which pairs local female-identifying musicians with locally crafted whiskies for performances, interviews, and whiskey tastings. She sometimes writes for Denver Westword, with a focus on local art. Wes Watkins - We Watkins is a multi-instrumentalist, band leader, show organizer, and long-running member of the Denver music community known for his work in The Other Black, Wheelchair Sports Camp, Cosmic Slim, and more. Miguel Aviña - Miguel Aviña is a Mexican singer, songwriter, and producer. He is best known as the lead singer and guitarist of the band iZCALLi. He has enjoyed consistent success and is widely credited as one of the key artists of the Rock En Tu Idioma (RETI) movement in Colorado. Miguel founded RETI Rock En Tu Idioma LLC in 2011, an artist management, promoter and marketing company responsible for community events such as Rock De Mayo, RETIFest and La Posada which seek to bring awareness and accessibility to the hispanic music and arts culture in Colorado. With iZCALLi Miguel has traveled throughout the US for over 15 years, showcasing their diverse brand of Rock En Tu Idioma. As a solo artist, Miguel takes the opportunity to journey into a deeper exploration of music. His lyrics and melodies resonate from the heart and exude raw emotions. These are best exposed through a more simple approach… his voice and his guitar. There is something familiar yet refreshing about Miguel's approach to song-writing that showcases Miguel's passion for The Love Song; these songs exhibit his wide range of influences: traditional folk ballads, pop, indie sounds, that are always tinged with a Latin flare, a flare that takes you into your heart, and warms the soul.

Creativity through the lens of a journalist "I think I'd be dead if I weren't using creativity all the time in my life"John Moore is one of Colorado’s most respected and honored arts journalists. At The Denver Post, he was named one of the 12 most influential theater critics in the United States by American Theatre Magazine. He was then employed as the Senior Arts Journalist for the Denver Center for the performing Arts, where he served as a shared resource for the entire Colorado theatre community, while covering other arts disciplines including film and music as well. He is also the founder of The Underground Music Showcase, otherwise known as The UMS, the largest annual music festival in Denver, now entering its 20th year. As a playwright, his play “Waiting for Obama” was a featured selection at the New York International Fringe Festival. In 2013, John founded a nonprofit called The Denver Actors Fund, which since has made $540,000 available to Colorado theatre artists in medical need. John is now the host of a new podcast called “Be Positive,” which looks the opportunities to make the world a better place during the COVID19 shutdown (available on Soundcloud).

The Spirettes' ethereal guitar-driven rock is supported by pop structures and sprinkled with myriad ghostly female vocals.

From this stark, haunted initial sound, the band landed a spot in Denver’s Underground Music Showcase, then began booking throughout Colorado. Denver artists Roka Hueka get the spotlight at a free concert at Commons Park on Thursday September 12th at 6pm. The band is fearless, taking on issues including immigration and racism. Here’s this week’s indytrack playlist: The Spirettes - Long Day Roka Hueka - Black & Ayotzinapa ​Poly Action - Staying Awake Kadhja Bonet - Fair Weather Friend Spirettes - Basss Hotel Rascinating Earthbound Objects - Overcast Funk Fiction - Sunset Heights

Storm Gloor has been tracking how songs succeed since he was a young teen . . . and now explores anything from how music cities can succeed and how one-hit wonders thrive (or don't). We enjoyed talking about how cities create and sustain music scenes with help from civic organizations, which may come from government or from the community. We discussed Richard Florida's revised creative economy studies on the impact of creative communities on the rest of the city, and returned to how streaming may be impacting both local cities and how songs are constructed.

Kiltro captivated us at last year's Underground Music Showcase when the band played one of our porch sessions. Led by Chilean-American artist Chris Bowers-Castillo, the Denver band makes loop-based songs influenced by folk, Latin, rock and electronic music. Kiltro will release its debut album, "Creatures of Habit," next month and play an album release show July 6 at Denver's Larimer Lounge. Kiltro visited our studio last month to play four songs.

Boulder rockers The Velveteers released their self-titled debut EP this week. The sibling duo of singer/guitarist Demi and drummer John Demitro gained a large following last year: They played to packed houses at the 2017 Westword Music Showcase and Underground Music Showcase, and Westword readers voted them Colorado's "Best Rock Band" for their high-octane blend of punk and garage rock.

On her debut album "Beyond The Bloodhounds," Adia Victoria Paul -- who performs as Adia Victoria -- addresses her complicated relationship to the American South. The South Carolina native adapts the blues music of that region with a modern spin. Her album references artists like Billie Holiday and Robert Johnson -- for both their music and politics.

She performed three songs from "Beyond The Bloodhounds" and spoke with Jeremy Petersen about the sociopolitical history of blues music, coming to terms with her Southern upbringing and expressing herself through live performance.

"It could have gone two directions at that point. It could have become a straight up marketing event for the Denver Post, or it could become a community event, and we have a community foundation....and they chose to move it into the community foundation and let me grow it slowly...and keep it as a non-profit" Mr. UMS. That's his name to me. There is a team of people who make UMS (the Underground Music Showcase) happen each year. It's a large team full of very talented and dedicated people with extraordinary skills ranging from Talent Buying, Marketing, and event operation and logistics. But at the helm of that team is a guy with a passion for what he is doing that is nothing short of infectious. Standing a head above most (literally), is Kendall Smith, or as I like to call him, Mr. UMS. Every conversation I have had both within the context of this interview and outside it, his passion for Denver's premiere local music showcase is evident in every sentence. It won't take but a minute or two in conversation with him before Kendall is genuinely seeking your thoughts on the scene and of course the UMS. This genuine drive to constantly innovate and improve is evident in this wonderful talk where we learn about Kendall's past, how he got into the UMS, the importance of keeping the UMS a community event, the obstacles he faces and the battle to simply...keep it awesome. Being the man behind what has become the biggest independent music festival in the region is not an easy chore. But Kendall handles it with absolute grace. Listen above and get to know the festival that we all hold so dear by getting to know the man behind it.

Inner Oceans has had a steady rise since forming three years ago. The Denver experimental pop group received the "Best New Artist" of 2014 award from Westword and performed on the Underground Music Showcase main stage in Denver last July. The band has released only a few singles, but plans to release a debut album, "I Don't Mind," on Sept. 16. It will feature material they wrote and recorded during a month of seclusion in a studio outside Bailey. Inner Oceans returned to the CPR Performance Studio to play three synth-driven songs and spoke with OpenAir's Jeremy Petersen about how the band has developed its sound over the years and the details of their anticipated debut album.

"We had the final contract in our hands...we were ready to sign it and then it was done...just gone. " There were a few things that made an impression on me when first moving to Denver and checking out the scene. One of them was the Underground Music Showcase (naturally), and another of them was the band The Epilogues (one of the first live sets I saw after moving here). I loved the live energy of the Epilogues. Seeing their set comforted my fears about the Denver scene. I knew at that time that if this was a sample of Denver's output...I was in for a treat. Jason Hoke is my guest for this week and he is forever connected to my initial impressions of Denver. He is the drummer for the Epilogues and is now one of the primary talent buyers for The UMS. We had a wonderful discussion about his personal history in music and the excellent origins of The Epilogues. We talked about growing up with supportive parents, learning how to put on your own shows, navigating through the murky waters of label shopping, booking strategies for The UMS and so much more! The song for this episode is an exclusive preview! It is called 'Best Friends' and will be available on The Epilogues upcoming album.
