Oriental Theater 4-6-12

Week number two of three that pairs Zen Mustache ‘mountain rock’ with boot-thumping bluegrass music. Last week at Buffalo Rose, this week at the Oriental Theater, and next week more great stuff queued up at the Jamestown Merc with special guest Chain Station.
What makes a great night of music? Sometimes it’s hitting everything tight […]

Bluegrass meets Mountain Rock – Buffalo Rose 3-31-12

A bowl of ice cream and leftover birthday cake, letting the adrenaline gradually dissipate from my body. Had another thrilling night out with the band – played a fun show over in Golden at the Buffalo Rose. That place is under new ownership/management and it’s got all the right ingredients to start hitting […]

Bacaro 3-16-12 Notes and Set List

Another great party with our friends down at Bacaro last night. I’m always amazed there’s yet to be a show that comes off without a hitch – it seems every single time ZM plays out there’s something that keeps us on our toes. Last night our sound man extraordinaire Ethan Bernstein called in […]

Buffalo Rose – Set List from 2-11-12 Pancreas Party

We had a blast working the room on behalf of the Pancreas Party fundraiser event last night at the Buffalo Rose in Golden! Those guys from Chain Station blasted the roof off. After shaking our booties to their “mountain music” we were invited along with show opener Erik Husman to jump back on […]

Lazy Dog 1-20-12 Notes and Set List

Feelin’ the love at the Lazy Dog tonight! Lots of old friends came for the party, and we made several new friends throughout the night in downtown Boulder. Shouts out to Tristan Fox, sound tech extraordinairre, and Jarett Mason, who helped us out with some sweet mandolin. It was great to reconnect […]

Little Bear 1-11-12 Set List

Weekend of Life and Death and Music
