There are some artists that need to be alone, and then there are those that just plain can’t play with anyone else. It’s the latter group that put themselves on stage as a one-man-band — performing with total musical independence, total responsibility. Local record label Pygmy Mountain Music joined with 3 Kings Tavern on July 12 to showcase a few of them in the first-ever Denver International One-Man-Band Fest, reportedly the only one of its kind in the world. The ten performers on the schedule showed that all you have to do to rock is do it all, and add a smidge of creative flair to stand out.

    Aging punk rocker with a deep of all things musical and artistic, enough to remain constantly young and perpetually mystified. Billy has journalistic dreams, but of a decidedly pastoral, Scottish nature.
