Monolith ends
The Monolith fire was lit on day one, and on day two it was fueled by everything from explosive dance acts to indie-folk rock. The afternoon kicked off with the Boulder wonder boys and Battle of the Bands winner Sound Rabbit on the main stage, while another homegrown favorite Chain Gang of 1974 got the blood churning down stairs. More local talent—Astra Moveo, Moonspeed, Hearts of Palm, Joshua Novak, The Wheel, Paper Bird and Dave Beegle—all held true to Colorado being a gold mine for spawning musical genius. New to many at the show, Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings swept the crowd with their funky yet retro soul sound. To set the tone for the last few hours of the day, Does it Offend You, Yeah blasted the audience with a dance fest so hot the fire marshal had to be called. CSS kept that momentum going, and Justice made sure no one went home dance deprived.
