Denver Show and Tell Project

About Me

This is something relatively new. This is something for people who make music in Denver. This is the Denver Show and Tell Project and it's starting right now! Anyone can participate, and it will only work if you do!

How it works:
Every month a new set of "guidelines" will be posted. Local bands/musicians/noise makers/friends have that month to make up a song within those guidelines (i.e. a theme to follow, a song to cover, a style to work in, etc), once everyone is done (writing/recording), all of the songs will be posted and shared with everyone! The purpose of this project is, above all, to have fun. Or, if you're someone who is stuck in a music-making rut, or can never finish what you start, this project could act as temporary inspiration. It could be a push for you to try something new you've never done before. Lastly, this project allows not only the music-makers who participate, but the community as well, to listen to the different takes and creative ideas everyone can have even when (or especially when) using the same prompt. There is no right or wrong way to make up a song, so let's do this! This year it's all about community, and there will be plenty of gatherings to come.
