Jack Gaffney the opener, is a 12-year-old singer, song-writer, musician and performer. Jack plays his piano-driven rock n roll in venues around the Denver area, amazing and entertaining audiences with a talent and stage presence that is astounding for his age. Jack also plays guitar, harmonica, cello, drums, and classical piano. He studies music theory at a college level, and is composing a symphony for a full orchestra. (Yes, we said symphony. And yes, we said TWELVE YEARS OLD.) He is currently a featured band on internet radio www.jammin5280radio.com, which will be live-streaming Saturday’s concert via internet.

Jack most recently performed at the COMBO Music Expo in Englewood, and requests for him to perform around the Denver Metro area are accelerating! He has also played at the Tufts Theatre at Swallow Hill, and gigs at the Children’s Hospital in Denver, Oskar Blues in Lyons, Ziggie’s Saloon in Denver, and at the Jamalama Music Festival in Longmont.

Slopeside, from Boulder, formed in 2005 and is known for performing great classic and contemporary rock. This 5-piece band also has a great original song set, thanks to Front Man Arn Current, whose songwriting and vocal performances are second to none!
