SPELLS @ 3 Kings Tavern, Denver CO, 2016-11-12




Here was a very fun night at 3 Kings.   Denver's own SPELLS playing 3K for their album release show for Staying In > Going Out.  

If you are not aware of this band they play high energy rock n roll in a similar vein as the Buzzcocks or The Briefs.   Clever lyrics and upbeat tunes about being rad, going on vacation, not expending to much effort for the man, and just plain fantastic rock n roll nonsense in the best way.

When possible live they like to set up on the floor of venues right down in the crowd old hard core punk style.  It makes for some memorable shows but it also makes them kind of a hard band to make a decent recording of. 

On this night at 3 Kings they set up right below my ceiling mounted microphones that I had mounted up there.  It makes for a nice direct in your face SPELLS experience.

In these crazy times where awesome bands like this can't get out and shake their stuff it is important if you can to support local bands and artists in any way we can.  SPELLS and Snappy Little Numbers have done a lot to support the local scene and community over the years so if you dig this go check out all their releases up on bandcamp. Lots of SPELLS and a ton of other killer bands too.
