ThIS AIn’T no coWToWn (A coloRAdo coMp), vol 6 BY ZETAKAYE hoUSE Here we are again, another year and another this ain’t no Cowtown Comp, and Colorado has the goods. With more than 150 tracks and over two hours of comedy submitted, Vol 6 showcases the best of local musicians and comedians. It’s been great to watch this scene for the last decade evolve into what it is today and an honor to be able to do these comps. Most importantly, it takes a lot of trust and courage for artists to blindly submit their work to a phantom internet weirdo with a strange name for a business. As in the past, the Cowtown Comp is a fundraiser for someone or something making an impact in our local scene. Vol 6 will support Seventh Circle Music Collective, formerly Blast-O-Mat. Manager Aaron 30 Saye is doing great things with this DIY venue. Seventh Circle Music Collective is an all-ages underground music hub in Denver. The space provides a centralized location for people to come together and be part of a community of great friendships, support, and music. Housing a band practice space, the spot is also used as a live performance room for musicians of all genres, complete with a record store that stocks music and merchandise from local, underground, and touring bands alike. With the help of other promoters, the venue advocates for new and underground bands to be elevated and given the opportunity to play larger venues in town once they’re ready. Seventh Circle survives off of donations given by people who come to enjoy music. The place is operated by a dedicated cadre of volunteers from every facet of the Denver music community. At the end of the day, it’s all about the music. No booze sales, no age restrictions, no genre boundaries, and no ticket sales. All donations help to bolster the space’s sustainability and keep touring bands on the road to the next city, and no donation goes unnoticed or unappreciated.
