MarchFourth Marching Band will play a street concert in downtown Aspen on Friday, March 29. M4, as their devotees call them, throws itself and the audience into a swirling volcano of high-energy music and spectacle.
What began as a Fat Tuesday party on March 4, 2003, in Portland, Ore., has over the last eight years become one of the nation’s best live touring acts, and thanks to word-of-mouth will soon be graduating from “best kept secret” to a band on the brink of exploding in popularity. For more on the band or to hear their music, go to www.marchfourthmarchingband.com.
Grouplove will take to the same downtown Aspen stage on Saturday, March 30. Their live shows sweep up the audience with an energetic blend of upbeat indie-pop, rock and folk. Their debut album, Never Trust a Happy Song, has found critical and commercial success and brought the group’s unique sound to a legion of fans. Go to www.grouplovemusic.com for more information on the band and to hear music previews.
