EOTO - Rainstick ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-11-11 | EOTO with Michael Travis and Jason Hann perform their song “Rainstick” in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.Subscribe to our channel! Or get new videos delivered to you in our weekly newsletter at http://eepurl.com/mzbMXThe interesting thing about the electronic music scene in Colorado is not that it is ballooning in a state that produces jambands and banjo players by the bushel.It's how the state's rootsy sensibilities are getting plugged into the electronics. Boulder is home to two electronic acts — Big Gigantic and GRiZ — that add sax to their onstage operating systems. Other local computer-boosted acts, such as SunSquabi, are as likely to be shredding guitar as twisting a knob during shows.EOTO takes the idea a step further. Its performances, which feature live instruments as well as computers, are all improvised, start to finish. It's basically an electronic jam band. But you've never heard sounds this danceable, this heavy, this groovy, this badass from the jam bands your dad listens to.Michael Travis and Jason Hann, members of the quintessentially Colorado jam band The String Cheese Incident, comprise EOTO. Although the music of the two acts share a spirit of spontaneity, they sound very little alike and they put on different kinds of concerts (look for a new tour schedule soon). EOTO brings crazy visuals, as well as crazy sounds to the scene. A couple of years ago, they went around with a lotus-like stage setup that cradled the guys as they played as if they were some sort of demigods.When they came to the Garage, Travis and Hann made up three songs on the spot, as is their specialty, and therefore the songs didn't even have names. So, we call them "Let's Go," "Rainstick" and "Second Story" (Hann gives a shoutout to the Garage in that last one). They also gave a mini-lesson in their technique when they sat down to chat with guest host Moose.Sign up. Don't miss out!

Or get new videos delivered to you in our weekly newsletter at http://eepurl.com/mzbMXWhen TAUK traveled to Colorado in July, the band fulfilled a dream by performing at Red Rocks. As a support act for jamband Umphrey's McGee, TAUK stepped onto a stage that represents a peak of accomplishment for musicians throughout the country.The four members of TAUK made one other stop while in the state: Second Story Garage. The band, which plays what it describes as heavy instrumental rock fusion, is based on the north shore of Long Island, in Oyster Bay, and has been on tour in advance of the September release of a new album, Headroom. We got to hear the band at a moment of ascendancy, when its national presence and musical development is reaching a new level. It's a milestone for a band when its fans get their own nickname -- TAUK's fans have come to be known as "Staukers."TAUK plays all-instrumental music, and its members are capable of jaw-dropping licks, riffs, runs and jams. Isaac Teel, on drums, is precise and versatile. Other drummers will watch him in awe, while non-musician listeners will fall under the spell of his beats. He's joined by Matt Jalbert on guitar, Charlie Dolan on bass and Alric "A.C." Carter on keys. The quartet played "Sweet Revenge," "Friction" and "Rainwalk" during their Garage session, and when they sat down for a chat with Quentin, they talked about preparing for Red Rocks.What they brought us: A pair of black TAUK panties.Sign up.

Bud Bronson & The Good Timers Interview ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-09-02 | Bud Bronson & The Good Timers chat with Quentin Young in the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.Subscribe to our channel! Or get new videos delivered to you in our weekly newsletter at http://eepurl.com/mzbMXBud Bronson & The Good Timers are hard not to like.They’re charismatic guys who play fun music, and their shows are, plainly speaking, a really good time. They have a Ridgemont High vibe that, in other hands, could be gimmicky but verges on the profound with them. They sing about hanging out with friends and digging on girls in such a way that’s so ingenuous it could be a stream-of-consciousness record of their collective thoughts. And underlying it all are crunchy, just-the-good-stuff riffs that spoon sugary rock richness into your ears.Frontman Brian Beer — yes, the last name’s just perfect — has a wild side on stage, and his passionately good-time approach to performance is no small reason the band backs up its name live. They followed through even in the confines (and afternoon taping time) of their session in the Garage. Joining Beer, who also plays guitar, were lead guitarist Luke Gottlieb, bassist Austen Grafa and drummer Forrest Bartosh.Their Garage set included “Cars,” “Pioneer Iron” and “Vapademic.” That last one is a protest against vaping weed that will resonate with anyone who appreciates the old teenage stoner rituals. “Now I see it on the streets of Denver Rock City/People sucking on pens like it’s Mos Eisley,” Beer sings, adding, with a characteristic propensity for self-reflection, “Give me 10 more years, I’ll find something else to get all self-righteous and nostalgic about.”That reference to “Denver Rock City,” by the way, is both a reference to a Kiss song and a sign of Bud Bronson’s hometown pride. They often refer to “Denver Rock City” in their promo material, and the Denver skyline features prominently on their recent Vapedemic/Cars EP. The city is a lot more fun with the Good Timers around. Their interview with Quentin is a blast, too.What they brought us: An empty can of Busch beer in a Bud Bronson koozie.Sign up. Don’t miss out!

The band played the first three songs off the new album — “Ezmerelda,” “Wicked” and “Animal” — and then continued to entertain during a wide-ranging interview with Quentin.Dirty Bourbon River Show perform their song "Ezmerelda" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/dirty-bourbon-river-show-ezmerelda-music-videoDirty Bourbon River Show perform their song "Animal" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/dirty-bourbon-river-show-animal-music-videoDirty Bourbon River Show perform their song "Wicked" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/dirty-bourbon-river-show-wicked-music-videoMembers of the band Dirty Bourbon River Show chat with SecondStoryGarage.com host Quentin Young in this video interview recorded in our studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/dirty-bourbon-river-show-video-interviewWhat they brought us: a poster bearing an actual corncob pipe that had been used for, uh, extracurricular activities.Sign up.

Plume Varia Interview ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-08-17 | Shon and Cherie Cobbs from the band Plume Varia chat with Quentin Young, host of SecondStoryGarage.com studio, in this video interview recorded inside our studio the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.It didn’t take long for Denver music observers to notice Plume Varia.Husband and wife Shon and Cherie Cobbs formed the band only two years ago, but after about a year they started finding themselves on best-of lists and playing the scene’s top venues. They have seen that attention only grow this year, including recent sets at the Westword Music Showcase and the Underground Music Showcase.Part of Plume Varia’s appeal is their singular style, which spans their look and sound. Their appearance usually adheres to a palette of black and white — black and white outfits, black and white instruments, black and white videos and photos. (The YouTube widget on their website is even black and white). They bring formal elements to their stage setup, and nothing seems entirely random in the way they present their music.The music itself is also deeply thoughtful and deliberate. Colorado’s music scene has long been flush with funky, jammy players who are out to uplift, which makes Plume Varia feel like a corrective as it emphasizes mood and reflection. You’ll get a sense of this in the songs the Cobbses performed during their recent session in the Garage — “Keeps,” “Forge” and “Home.” They also sat down for a discussion of their project with Quentin.Plume Varia perform their song "Keeps" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/plume-varia-keeps-music-videoPlume Varia perform their song "Forge" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/plume-varia-forge-music-videoPlume Varia perform their song "Home" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/plume-varia-home-music-videoShon and Cherie Cobbs from the band Plume Varia chat with Quentin Young, host of SecondStoryGarage.com studio, in this video interview recorded inside our studio the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/plume-varia-video-interviewWhat they brought us: a vintage microphone.Sign up.

Plain White Ts - American NIghts ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-07-13 | Plain White T's perform their song "American Nights" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.The Plain White T’s shot to fame in 2007 with “Hey There Delilah,” a two-time Grammy-nominated song that for some bands might have been one of those achievements never to be topped. But in subsequent releases, the T’s proved capable of consistent hit-making. Songs such as “1, 2, 3, 4” and “Rhythm of Love,” like “Delilah,” are melodic gems and commercial gold.They’re doing more of the same with their latest album, this year’s American Nights. The title track is a summertime anthem and “Pause,” the album’s second track, shares the pop contours and power of some of Taylor Swift’s best work.The Chicago-bred band follows a down-the-middle musical path, but they bring smart lyrics to the mainstream, and when their music does go off-road, they handle it like pros. “Never Working,” a song that’s a highlight of American Nights and sounds as if it could have been a collaboration between John Lennon and Billie Joe Armstrong, begins: “I admit I don’t do nothing fast/I left town just to get off my ass.” Now that’s how you begin a rock song, kids.The T’s were in Denver for a show at the Paramount Theatre when they stopped by the Garage to perform an acoustic set of their new material.

Plain White Ts - Pause ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-07-13 | Plain White T's perform their song "Pause" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.The Plain White T’s shot to fame in 2007 with “Hey There Delilah,” a two-time Grammy-nominated song that for some bands might have been one of those achievements never to be topped. But in subsequent releases, the T’s proved capable of consistent hit-making. Songs such as “1, 2, 3, 4” and “Rhythm of Love,” like “Delilah,” are melodic gems and commercial gold.They’re doing more of the same with their latest album, this year’s American Nights. The title track is a summertime anthem and “Pause,” the album’s second track, shares the pop contours and power of some of Taylor Swift’s best work.The Chicago-bred band follows a down-the-middle musical path, but they bring smart lyrics to the mainstream, and when their music does go off-road, they handle it like pros. “Never Working,” a song that’s a highlight of American Nights and sounds as if it could have been a collaboration between John Lennon and Billie Joe Armstrong, begins: “I admit I don’t do nothing fast/I left town just to get off my ass.” Now that’s how you begin a rock song, kids.The T’s were in Denver for a show at the Paramount Theatre when they stopped by the Garage to perform an acoustic set of their new material.

Dave McGraw and Mandy Fer Interview ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-06-24 | Dave McGraw and Mandy Fer chat with Quentin Young in the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.Science and music have a way of mingling in the mind. Tom Scholz, mastermind of the band Boston, was an MIT grad and engineer for Polaroid. Brian May, guitarist for Queen, graduated from “We Will Rock You” to academic astrophysics.Dave McGraw used to be a wildlife biologist. The scientist is now a singer as one half of the indie folk duo Dave McGraw & Mandy Fer. Back when he was studying endangered birds in far-flung deserts, he found himself “penciling lyrics on data sheets with binoculars in hand,” according to a band bio. Fer, meanwhile, studied music in Spain, where she honed her acoustic guitar chops after developing her electric lead playing.The two met about five years ago in Flagstaff, Ariz. Place is an important factor in their musical evolution. They now live in the San Juan Islands, a remote archipelago north of Seattle that is said not even to have cell service. It was in this place, with all its natural spoils, that the duo recorded their latest album, Maritime.The album was released in March, and the duo hit the road. McGraw and Fer passed through Colorado in early April and then again a month later, when they made some time to swing by the Garage and perform “Serotiny (May Our Music),” “Dark Dark Woods” and an as-yet untitled song that was only a couple of weeks old when they arrived in the studio. They also sat down to chat with Quentin.Dave McGraw & Mandy Fer perform their song "Serotiny (May Our Music)" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/dave-mcgraw-mandy-fer-serotiny-music-videoDave McGraw & Mandy Fer perform their song "Dark, Dark Woods" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/dave-mcgraw-mandy-fer-dark-woods-music-videoDave McGraw & Mandy Fer perform their as-yet-untitled song in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/dave-mcgraw-mandy-fer-untitled-music-videoSingers, songwriters Mandy Fer and Dave McGraw chat with Second Story Garage host Quentin Young in this video interview recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/dave-mcgraw-mandy-fer-video-interviewWhat they brought us: A 16-ounce container of Sudbury cactus food.Sign up.

It’s not the most conventional conception of the son of God, but it’s an entertaining one, and it somehow jibes with what it’s like to listen to the Lollipops.The Boulder alt-country band gives its EPs names such as Death and Resurrection, and its songs bear the mark of hard truths and sin. But the punk energy behind the playing, and the sense that it’s all in good fun, make it OK to dance to a song like “Death.”The band recently earned a top performance spot at the Bolder Boulder 10K, on May 25, which is known for its musical entertainment, by winning a battle of the bands competition at Oskar Blues. GasPops, as they’re sometimes known, also recently won a Colorado Daily Readers’ Choice award.When Rose and bandmates — Donny Ambory on electric guitar, Jonny Mouser on drums and Brad Morse on bass — visited the Garage, they performed “Death,” “Longest Night” and “Going Home to Georgia.” They also sat down for a chat with Quentin and expounded on the superstitions behind their music production.Gasoline Lollipops perform their song "Death" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/gasoline-lollipops-death-music-videoGasoline Lollipops perform their song "Longest Night" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/gasoline-lollipops-longest-night-music-videoGasoline Lollipops perform their song "Going Home To Georgia" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/gasoline-lollipops-going-home-georgia-music-videoMembers of the band Gasoline Lollipops chat with Second Story Garage host Quentin Young in this video interview recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/gasoline-lollipops-video-interviewWhat they brought us: A signed votive candle.Sign up.

decker. Interview ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-06-24 | Brandon Decker of decker. chats with Quentin Young in the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.The lyrical references on decker.’s latest album, Patsy, run from Ol’ Dirty Bastard to Lee Harvey Oswald, and in between is some sharp thinking expressed in cutting lines. Decker.’s view of the world is expansive and unforgiving.“Patsy,” the album’s title song, was inspired by Oswald, and it gives a first-person account as if told by Kennedy’s assassin. It provocatively asks the listener to empathize with this character and suggests that he is not so different than any of us. “I am the everyman,” he sings. “It’s all over for me, guess it’s all over for you.”Brandon Decker, frontman of the band, lives in Sedona, Ariz., and, by his own account, the desert is essential to his sensibility as a songwriter. His music shares a severe beauty with the desert, where life seems more miraculous because it could sooner be extinguished. Decker’s quivering, plaintive voice only adds to the sense that these songs are somehow an exercise in survival.Decker. was on tour in April in support of Patsy when the band stopped at Second Story Garage for a session. They performed “Patsy,” “ODB” and “Spades,” and Decker provided some insights into his writing when he sat down to chat with Quentin. The band will be back in Boulder County this summer to play the Jamestown Mercantile on July 23.decker. perform their song "Patsy" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/decker-music-patsy-videodecker. perform their song "Spades" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/decker-music-spades-videodecker. perform their song "ODB" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/decker-music-odb-videoBrandon Decker, leader of the band decker. chats with Second Story Garage host Quentin Young in this video interview recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/decker-music-video-interviewSign up.

Ayo Awosika - Superman ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-06-18 | Ayo Awosika performs her song "Superman" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.Ayo Awosika is based in New York these days, but Colorado music fans will recognize her for her work with Front Range acts such as The Motet. She lived and made music in Colorado for five years, and her connections with Mile High musicians keep her coming back regularly to the state.She returned in May, in fact, to release her debut solo album with a show at Denver jazz club Dazzle. Titled “We Best Not Wait,” the album proves Awosika an emotionally vulnerable songwriter and a powerful singer. It’s no criticism of her writing to say her vocal talents elevate the “singer” in her singer-songwriter job description.Awosika was born to a Nigerian father and American mother, and the soundtrack of her childhood home features disparate styles, including the Afrobeat of Fela Kuti, the sultry jazz of Billie Holiday and the pop exuberance of Madonna. Such early influences touch her own music, a mix of jazzy soul and pop.She brought her band to the Garage when they were in the Denver area. The band included Nick Jost on bass, Sean Mullins on drums and Lizzie Dudash on backing vocals. They performed the songs “We Best Not Wait,” “Another Kind of Mission” and “Superman,” then Awosika sat down with Quentin to dig deeper into the meaning of “Superman.”Ayo Awosika performs her song "Superman" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/ayo-awosika-superman-music-videoAyo Awosika performs her song "Another Kind of Mission" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/ayo-awosika-another-kind-mission-music-videoAyo Awosika performs her song "We Best Not Wait" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/ayo-awosika-best-not-wait-music-videoSinger, songwriter Ayo Awosika chats with Second Story Garage host Quentin Young in this video interview recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/ayo-awosika-video-interviewWhat she brought us: A clock, a symbol of “We Best Not Wait.”Sign up.

Dave McGraw & Mandy Fer - Untitled ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-06-13 | Dave McGraw & Mandy Fer perform their song "Untitled" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.Science and music have a way of mingling in the mind. Tom Scholz, mastermind of the band Boston, was an MIT grad and engineer for Polaroid. Brian May, guitarist for Queen, graduated from “We Will Rock You” to academic astrophysics.Dave McGraw used to be a wildlife biologist. The scientist is now a singer as one half of the indie folk duo Dave McGraw & Mandy Fer. Back when he was studying endangered birds in far-flung deserts, he found himself “penciling lyrics on data sheets with binoculars in hand,” according to a band bio. Fer, meanwhile, studied music in Spain, where she honed her acoustic guitar chops after developing her electric lead playing.The two met about five years ago in Flagstaff, Ariz. Place is an important factor in their musical evolution. They now live in the San Juan Islands, a remote archipelago north of Seattle that is said not even to have cell service. It was in this place, with all its natural spoils, that the duo recorded their latest album, Maritime.The album was released in March, and the duo hit the road.

Ayo Awosika - Another Kind of Mission ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-06-09 | Ayo Awosika performs her song "Another Kind of Mission" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.Ayo Awosika is based in New York these days, but Colorado music fans will recognize her for her work with Front Range acts such as The Motet. She lived and made music in Colorado for five years, and her connections with Mile High musicians keep her coming back regularly to the state.She returned in May, in fact, to release her debut solo album with a show at Denver jazz club Dazzle. Titled “We Best Not Wait,” the album proves Awosika an emotionally vulnerable songwriter and a powerful singer. It’s no criticism of her writing to say her vocal talents elevate the “singer” in her singer-songwriter job description.Awosika was born to a Nigerian father and American mother, and the soundtrack of her childhood home features disparate styles, including the Afrobeat of Fela Kuti, the sultry jazz of Billie Holiday and the pop exuberance of Madonna. Such early influences touch her own music, a mix of jazzy soul and pop.She brought her band to the Garage when they were in the Denver area. The band included Nick Jost on bass, Sean Mullins on drums and Lizzie Dudash on backing vocals. They performed the songs “We Best Not Wait,” “Another Kind of Mission” and “Superman,” then Awosika sat down with Quentin to dig deeper into the meaning of “Superman.”Ayo Awosika performs her song "Superman" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/ayo-awosika-superman-music-videoAyo Awosika performs her song "Another Kind of Mission" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/ayo-awosika-another-kind-mission-music-videoAyo Awosika performs her song "We Best Not Wait" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/ayo-awosika-best-not-wait-music-videoSinger, songwriter Ayo Awosika chats with Second Story Garage host Quentin Young in this video interview recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/ayo-awosika-video-interviewWhat she brought us: A clock, a symbol of “We Best Not Wait.”Sign up.

Rocktin Grove Interview ::: Second Story Garage Second Story Garage 2015-06-09 | Rocktin Grove chat with Quentin Young in the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado.The guys in Rocktin Grove are all-around creative. Guitarist Wilson Harwood makes jewelry out of guitar strings. Theo Farver made his own guitar (he’s playing it in the band’s Garge session, the one that kind of looks like a gold Gibson Les Paul).When the six band members get together, they make rock music with touches of bluegrass, jamband and roots, and this is the creation that’s winning them fans along the Colorado Front Range.The Boulder band has been performing in the Denver/Boulder area since 2010 and is becoming familiar with the stages at the Fox Theatre and other premier venues in the region. It also was featured as part of the Colorado Music Party during South by Southwest in Austin in March.Rocktin Grove seems to have captured a particularly Boulder sound in which Jerry Garcia, Bill Monroe and Mumford & Sons can be heard in the background.Members Jon Kimbell, Will Viitanen, Adrian Flynt, Garrett Cropsey, Harwood and Farver visited the studio in April and performed the songs “Higher,” “Living Cities” and “Restless,” then talked with Quentin about all kinds of things.Rocktin Grove perform their song "Living Cities" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/rocktin-grove-living-cities-music-videoRocktin Grove perform their song "Higher" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/rocktin-grove-higher-music-videoRocktin Grove perform their song "Restless" in this music video recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/rocktin-grove-restless-music-videoMembers of the band Rocktin Grove chat with Second Story Garage host Quentin Young in this video interview recorded at the SecondStoryGarage.com studio inside the Daily Camera newsroom in Boulder, Colorado: http://secondstorygarage.com/rocktin-grove-video-interviewWhat they brought us: A band poster and a guitar-string bracelet made by Harwood.Sign up.
