Multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Dave Preston recently released his first ambient album in five years. The luminously evocative In These Storms is Preston's third ambient release, following 2008's Be and 2010's Soundtrack for Motion.

When Radiohead demanded public access to Prince's fantabulous cover of "Creep" recently, I couldn't help but recall falling in love with creative covers as a teenage drummer and finishing all my own shows in the clubs, bars and garages of Pittsburgh with the punk trio Falling Short by blazing through...
When the hip Avanti food court opens in mid-July at West 32nd Avenue and Pecos Street, it will have an odd-for-Colorado beer lineup and, in particular, one beer that came about as a result of an unusual collaboration between the world-renowned Dogfish Head brewery and Denver’s Prost Brewing. Call it Delaware meets Denver...
Legendary experimental electronic duo Autechre performs at the Bluebird Theater this Saturday, October 16. Rob Brown and Sean Booth formed the project in 1987 out of a shared interest in electronic music and the hip-hop world in Manchester UK. “Looking back, as a kid, it appears it was everywhere,” says...
Back in March, we wrote about "Clearing the Haze," a Colorado Gazette series about the fallout from marijuana legalization in Colorado. The resulting package was a relentless anti-pot screed co-written by Christine Tatum, wife of Dr. Christian Thurstone, one of the area's most prominent physicians against greater access to cannabis by young people...
Sources reveal that the Denver Police Department is on the cusp of announcing its policy regarding the use of body cameras.

In this legal weed-happy city, the evolving traditions of neo-Denver continually reveal themselves — especially during the holidays. Last year, for instance, I found myself at a marijuana-sponsored New Year's Eve party, where nicely rolled joints sat on tables next to oversize mason jars packed with THC-infused truffles, which were...
Last week, I purchased some Broncos socks at a store in San Diego — a purchase that caused the Chargers-fan clerk to go into conniptions about his own team's woes and Denver's 6-0 record. And I'm ashamed to admit that to make him feel better, I predicted that the unbeaten...
Justin Brunson wasn’t an obvious addition to the founding team behind Honor Society Handcrafted Eatery, a fast-fine restaurant that opened this summer in a new office building behind Union Station. If you’re looking for a charcuterie whiz, he’s your guy. If you’re craving a three-pound pork chop and pork-fat fries,...
We all love the shiny and new, but sometimes the patina of nostalgia adds value to what might otherwise seem like just a trendy novelty. Restaurants are no different; if we recognize the name of the chef or if one of our old favorites finds new life in a new...
It's not often when parents and students rally on behalf of a person accused of wielding a gun at a school. But that's the case for nineteen-year-old Elhadji Samba Dioum, known by his friends and family as Samba. Dioum was arrested and formally charged after what's been described as a robbery...
The Star Wars films are known for their incredible space battles, bizarre aliens and other crazy sci-fi visuals. But underneath all that, the films also tell a classic story, a near-perfect example of what Joseph Campbell called The Hero’s Journey. That iconic story structure is part of what makes a...

Abigail Cozad had a tough life, owing to a traumatic brain injury suffered as a result of an accident involving a drunk driver when she was just fifteen. Now, Cozad is dead, victim of a homicide. Her body was found in an Adams County motel. Now, the Adams County Sheriff's...
Great tacos are a balance of flavorful fillings and a tortilla treated with respect. If a tortilla doesn't get a quick crisp on a hot griddle, preferably anointed with a little lard, something else must be done to bring out the best of the corn flavor to meld it with...
Last year, we told you about the federal murder charge against Harold Henthorn, who was accused of killing his wife, Dr. Toni Henthorn, via a 2012 fall at Rocky Mountain National Park that was originally ruled an accident. We also told you about a renewed investigation into the death of...
Last year around this time, we shared the results of the 2014 American Fitness Index. In it, Denver came in fourth — a fine finish, if not quite as good as its performance in a Sharecare.com survey on the same subject published earlier that year. In the latter, Denver was number...
Sir George Martin, who's died at age ninety, had a full, rich and varied life in music. But he will forever be known as the man who produced the vast majority of recordings by a little pop combo known as the Beatles. As such, Martin helped capture some of the very...
Nick French has a dozen beehives on seventy acres of a Colorado hemp farm. With these bees, he has harnessed the power of three super foods to create his Colorado Hemp Honey. Containing whole CBD hemp extract, as well as essential oils for flavoring and aroma therapy, the locally grown...

When prominent people find themselves embroiled in public controversy, they're frequently advised to keep their comments to a minimum. But Boulder cyclist Tom Danielson and former Lance Armstrong teammate took the opposite tack after being suspended from the Boulder-based Cannondale Garmin squad in the wake of a positive test for...
Before Anthony Bourdain published Kitchen Confidential, in 2000, mere mortals who simply eat in restaurants had little idea about the drinking, debauchery and drug use rampant among the folks responsible for getting their fettuccine Alfredo to the table. The book was eye-opening if true, and a rambunctious, vicarious pleasure even...
Thanks to the Denver Center Theatre Company’s New Play Summit, we had the privilege of seeing Samuel D. Hunter’s The Whale — which had a reading at the DCTC in 2011 and earned a full production by the company a year later — before it became a major success in...
The 38th edition of the Denver Film Festival started off quietly — and that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. The opening night festivities were back at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House after taking place at the Buell Theatre last year, and while the red carpet was in place outside the...
