KGNU presents Nabihah Iqbal w/ STAR Inc. + DJ Ladybug

KGNU Presents Nabihah Iqbal with STAR Inc. and DJ Ladybug on Thursday, January 25th. In the early months of 2020, Nabihah Iqbal’s studio was burgled. All her work was lost, including her long-awaited album. Already suffering from a broken hand and a severe case of burnout, she felt helpless. While the forensic police looked for fingerprints in her studio, she received a call. It was her grandmother; her grandfather had suffered a brain haemorrhage. Nabihah got on a plane to Karachi, Pakistan the next day. As the Covid-19 pandemic surged, Nabihah spent the global lockdown finding resilience amidst the turmoil. “Going to Pakistan turned into a blessing in disguise,” she says. “It affected my perspective on music. At the time, being forcefully removed from the whole scenario of the burglary felt frustrating, but it was the best thing that could have happened.” Nabihah spent those months remembering why she made music in the first place. She went back to basics and bought an acoustic guitar and a harmonium. Alongside a loop pedal and voice notes, she spent the next two years crafting her album, ‘Dreamer’, a high-water mark for the London-born artist. “For the first time ever, I’ve made music where I’ve been more patient with it,” she says. “Normally, when you’re an electronic music producer, you go into the studio, switch your computer on and start working on Ableton or Logic and then build up from that. Whereas, I decided not to go near all that for ages, and I was also forced into this approach in a way, because of the studio burglary and then being in Pakistan, away from all my equipment. Instead, I had to let the ideas develop in my head.” – 16+, under 16 admitted with ticketed guardian

N3ptune After Party DJ SET (FREE EVENT)

Lost Lake presents N3ptune After Party DJ SET (FREE EVENT) on Friday, March 31st. Hailed as a “Denver Musician to Watch” by 303 Magazine, N3ptune is a explosive multi-hyphenate hailing from Denver, CO. A proudly queer singer/songwriter, producer, dancer, model, actor, and director, N3ptune is carving out a lane in Denver’s music scene, unlike anything that has come before.   Heavily influenced by his upbringing in the Baptist Church, N3ptune is a genre-bender who merges the essence of gospel, blues, and soul into an amalgamation of pop music as only his mind can create. His songs are bold and brash, and his live performances are raw and captivating, to the point where Sleigh Bells’ Alexis Krauss likened the experience to “seeing Prince live for the first time” and proceeded to invite him on their tour on the spot.  Beginning his journey in the industry as a producer and singer/songwriter while he was in high school, N3ptune quickly became a staple in Denver’s burgeoning DIY scene. From headlining Denver’s Pridefest to holding down one of the city’s most talked about residencies at local staple, the Meadowlark, N3ptune’s quickly become a standout in the Denver’s music scene. In 2021, N3ptune took it up a notch. From putting on a breakthrough performance at Denver Fashion Week, to shutting down Westword Music Showcase, to supporting the likes of Wyclef Jean, Sleigh Bells, Kennyhoopla, and Aluna (of AlunaGeorge), and receiving placement on syndicated radio, KTCL Channel 93.3 with his hit single “Black Horse” all in a matter of weeks, N3ptune has proved he is ready for the national spotlight. – 16+, under 16 admitted with ticketed guardian

KBCO 97.3 Presents Smith & Thell w/ Social Animals

KBCO 97.3 Presents Smith & Thell with Social Animals on Friday, October 7th — Smith & Thell are a Swedish Grammy-winning pop/folk band based in Stockholm, Sweden. The duo, composed of Maria Smith (vocals, guitar) and Victor Thell (vocals, guitar, production), first met one another as young teenagers at a local music event in their hometown of Helsingborg in Southern Sweden.  Their debut album Soulprints was released in April 2017 via the Nordic indie label, Playground Music. The follow up international hit single, “Forgive Me Friend”, came in November 2018, and led the band to signing its first major label deal with the storied American label, Arista Recordings, a subsidiary of Sony Music Entertainment. Smith & Thell’s sophomore album, “Pixie’s Parasol” came via Arista Recordings in 2021, and featured the hits “Forgive Me Friend”, “Hotel Walls”, “Year of the Young, and “Goliath”. The album has now accumulated over 200 million streams on Spotify alone, and this success has led to Smith & Thell sharing stages across the world with bands such as The Head and the Heart, Young The Giant, and Fitz and the Tantrums. Smith & Thell have simultaneously established themselves as one of Sweden’s most sought-after songwriter and producer duos. They won the 2020 Swedish Grammy award for Composer of the Year, and their writing credits for major label artists, including Jennifer Lopez, Ava Max, Martin Garrix, Rauw Alejandro, Gryffin, Alan Walker, Maejor, NOTD, and R3HAB, account for over 3 Billion global streams.  The duo has also been honored with a slew of other awards, including the Denniz Pop Rookie of the Year (selected by Max Martin), Los Angeles Musexpo New Emerging International Artist, and Swedish Rockbjörnen Best Group 2021.
