Historic Downtown Louisville, Colorado
Menu
For three or four hours, eight summertime Friday evenings, life is just like it should be. Babies don’t cry, dogs don’t bark, and wise elders feel nineteen again. The Muse visits the musicians pretty much every night and dances when the spirit moves her. We don’t know why this all happens here, we’re just glad it does.
We’ve had great musicians at the Faire, but no one better than these guys. Led by longtime members Mark Earley and Rich Lataille, Roomful of Blues brings the juice that will set you loose. We have a special treat for an opening act, from Louisville Colorado, the very talented Johnny O Band. See you at the Faire!
What is it about the New Orleans thing that works so well here? Who knows? Maybe we both just like a really good time and, of course, really great music. So, Faire folk, you are in for a real treat ‘cause we got the real deal coming to town. From the great state of Louisiana, please welcome The Dirty Dozen Brass Band. Laissez les bon temps rouler!
No other band on the planet sounds like they do. They’ve captured something that’s all their own, but they’re willing to share. This will be the 9th time the ‘dudes have played the Faire — a record, at least until Firefall ties them in August. So join us at the Steinbaugh for the Four on the Floor show with the boys from Fort Fun. Papa Dukie will be in the house. Rain or shine, the ‘dudes are divine.
Hey, are you tuff enough? Yeah? Then come Downtown and get it on with this great American band. Led by the multi talented Kim Wilson, the Fabulous Thunderbirds are a blues based rock-and-roll machine and we’re thrilled to have them lighting up the Steinbaugh Pavilion. With Special Guest: Cass Clayton Band
We’ve wanted to have Chubby Carrier at the Faire for years. Well, his touring hiatus is over and the guy many feel is the greatest zydeco artist on planet earth is back, and he’s coming to our town. Get ready to dance, ‘cause there ain’t no party like a Chubby party.
Turn it up! Following in the talented Kansas City footsteps of Faire favorite Sam Fish, Katy and the ladies have, simply, got the goods. They can play, they can sing, and they have a sound all their own. So if you like your rock n roll young, original and sprinkled with melody and dynamics, we’ll be cooking up some fun this Friday. C’mon down!
Why? Because they’re great and the people have spoken. We get more requests to book M4 than any other act, and if you’ve had the pleasure, you know why. Join us as the musical fun factory from Portland brings their brand of funky mayhem to the Steinbaugh for the fourth consecutive year. Lace up those high heeled sneakers boys and girls, it’s party time, rain or shine!
They’re the biggest selling Colorado band of all time. Their timeless tunes, superb musicianship, and local-boys-done-good vibe make their performances a joyful time—not to mention they got Mr Mark Andes back on the bass. So join us this Friday night and sing along with a few thousand of your closest friends. From Boulder Colorado, it’s Firefall.
