REAL ESTATE return to Denver to play the Gothic!

chrissygothic — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 23:38:05 +0000

We are excited to announce the return of REAL ESTATE to Denver! This time, at the Gothic! These guys are on top of the indie rock world right now and since their headlining debut at Moe’s last November they’ve gotten a lot of attention. Their sophomore album Days released in October of last year was named one of Pitchfork’s top ten records of 2011, and they really seem to be Pitchfork’s darlings (the website just about covers their every move). Which is ok by me since they pointed out the new song that the guys played three weeks ago on WXPN’s “World Cafe Live”; see if you can catch “In My Car” at around the 25 minute mark and enjoy a bunch of beautifully played tracks off of Days http://www.npr.org/event/music/144737168/world-cafe-live-real-estate-in-concert. You don’t get more hip than this on Friday April 27th.

As you know, The Gothic is one of BUCKETHEAD’s favorite places to play, so he’s decided to bring along his friend, THAT 1 GUY to be exact! They will be performing together as the FRANKENSTEIN BROTHERS on Wednesday April 25th (and so ya- we’re not talking about the Denver based movie http://www.frankensteinbros.com/) We are stoked for this bad ass combination of musicians, no doubt they will be playing off of their 6 track 2008 release Bolt on Neck and some fresh collaborations. Check out the title track from the album (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LAA_8OBas4) and don’t miss this unique duo!

The Gothic Theatre is pleased to announce that indie rock super group GIRLS will headline the theatre on Saturday March 16^th and will be joined by Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Tickets are on sale now!

Girls released – “Record 3″ - Father, Son, Holy Ghost – in late summer of 2011 to outstanding reviews from across the board. No one says it better than Mark Richardson of Pitchfork – http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/15811-father-son-holy-ghost/ – The review points out that the new album does what most strive to do, tap into the past but still sound fresh and new. More so, Father sets its self apart by bringing a “color and personality” unique to singer/songwriter Christopher Owen. Watch him here in the promo video for “Honey Bunny” a song that captures the sound of The Kinks or the Beach Boys yet couldn’t be more current: http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=IxuDoYhQI2o

Lineup Change Thurs Dec 8th Brett Gelman OUT –> RORY SCOVEL IN!

chrissygothic — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 23:55:54 +0000

The latest addition to our comedy series with Grapes of Rad Productions has changed. Due to extenuating circumstances Brett Gelman will no longer be headlining the Gothic on Thursday December 8th but will be replaced by the even funnier RORY SCOVEL who will still be supported by Chris Charpentier and Total Ghost. Mixing his spontaneous creativity and absurd view of the world, L.A. based comedian Rory Scovel is quickly making a name for himself across North America. Rory has appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and Comedy Central’s Live at Gotham, and has opened theater shows for such comics as Louis C.K., Daniel Tosh and Nick Swardson. Check out this clip from his stand up at Bumbershoot festival in 2007: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpNTWteCFnE
