The Say So
Ever changing and always evolving, The Say So is an electric indie-alternative rock band based in Denver, Colorado, with a determination to set themselves apart with their creative and progressive instrumentals that show off their diverse and extensive musical training. This determination and artistic integrity is evident in their new album, entitled The Romantic.
Sean Palmer (vocals and guitar), Noah Fisher (guitar), Chris Beeble (bass), and Robbie Spradling (drums) make up the band with apparent musical influences such as Mutemath, The Mars Volta, Circa Survive, and Thrice. When three of the members (Palmer, Beeble, and Spradling) have known each other since high school, the band has been able to write music as a unit, and that team effort is evident in their high-powered, high energy, and carefully orchestrated sound. With Fisher, the four-piece ensemble is even more complete, resulting in The Say So’s signature intense ambient sound.
Appreciative of art in all forms, The Say So cultivates each song to emulate a visual experience, not just an auditory one. With The Romantic, they draw from the inspiration of an artistry that has seemingly disappeared in today’s world. Not just artistry, but passion—a passion with the power to “drive someone to the brink of insanity.” The Say So strives to bring this idea back in the form of a modern day “romantic,” with this album and beyond. Desperate to create a full sensory experience for their audience, The Say So works and tweaks each song from conception to its final product, with the intention of creating the seamless “film in your mind.”
As a band, their dedication to each other and their music is evident in their on-stage performances and interactions off-stage. The Say So is set out with a mission to impact their listeners with a positive message that will resonate long after they play their last note.

The Foot
With their tongues thrust firmly into their cheeks and their music warming the hearts and loins of the audiences they captivate night after night, Denver's The Foot. expertly blends new and old influences into a sound that is immediately recognizable, with a novel edge that is certainly their own.
The lifelong musicians are old schoolmates, brought together at university from all corners of the country. They immediately took their shared love of 60's and 70's classic rock, early 90's alternative rock, modern pop and r&b and began rehearsing earnestly in a basement that seemed to flood on a weekly basis. The results of these aquatic sessions were what would ultimately become their critically acclaimed debut release, 2010's "Primary Colors".
Hailed as one of Denver's top rock acts, The Foot. entered the national scene at New York City's CMJ 2010. Urb Magazine declared them "One of the 15 acts you wish you saw at CMJ" alongside such acts as Das Racist and Two Door Cinema Club. After making several swings across the country, playing some of the most prestigious venues at home, and playing with some of the most respected artists on the national stage, The Foot. is currently in the process of releasing a series of EPs, the second and third of which will be released simultaneously in March 2012. As if that wasn't enough, they are continuing to pursue a rigorous touring schedule, write, and shimmy their way into all of your lives, of course.

Mr. Right
Mr. Right is an alternative pop band based out of Denver, Colorado. The sound of Mr. Right can be characterized by it's soaring vocal melodies, crisp acoustic guitar lines, powerful drums, warm keyboard lines and lyrics about life, love and the pursuit of happiness.
Before the formation of Mr. Right, Adam and Jarrod Barraza have been playing music for nine years. Through the instruction of numerous teachers, Adam Barraza has been able to craft his drum playing to a unique and powerful rhythmic force that lays the perfect percussive foundation to the Mr. Right sound. Jarrod Barraza's technical approach to the guitar and vision of Mr. Right has been an additionally key asset to their distinctive sound. Playing primarily on the acoustic guitar rather than the electric, Jarrod utilizes the warm overtones and crisp colors of the instrument to drive the alternative pop sound of Mr. Right. The final piece of Mr. Right is Drew Torres. Drew adds his bright vocals and warm keyboards to complete the Mr. Right sound.
The name, Mr. Right comes from the combined feeling of all three members of a band with a sound that 'feels right.' Mr. Right have played shows around the Denver/Fort Collins areas at venues such as: The Aggie in Fort Collins, The Marquis, The Lion's Lair, The Bluebird and Quixote's True Blue in Denver, and 3J's in Johnstown. Denver's modern rock KTCL (channel 93.3) has also presented Mr. Right at 1515 club and on the "locals only" radio show.
The Mr. Right sound has also been described as "Fun and Energetic" says Elena Curtis of the Scene Magazine. Whether the setting is a theatre, a bar or even a coffee shop, Mr. Right's alternative and acoustic approach to pop music is one that will turn heads.
