Infusing humor, wit, and poignant storytelling, his shows are a space where audience members feel like old friends. Whether he’s headlining solo or sharing the stage with longtime collaborators, Craigie’s ability to make his crowd laugh, reflect, and connect is second to none. As he prepares to release Greatest Hits… Just Kidding… Live – No Hits, his latest live album captures the warmth and spontaneity of these memorable nights.
At this point, there have been quite a few good shows in the rearview…

Southwestern Colorado based artist Dana Ariel’s atmospheric vocals, folk guitar, and captivating storytelling demonstrate the young artists passion, capability, and gratitude to share her music with her audience. Although just one voice and one guitar, she brings an eclectic sound with her original songs; “Josephine” has an old-school soul feel; “Midnight Sun” has a festival-folk feel; and the title track to her debut album Wild Woman has both 21st century indie rock guts among a Motown vibe” (Bryant Liggett, the Durango Herald 2022). Ariel aspires to provide songs to help humans come together and connect over the magic and tragic of life. She spends her days either writing her next album ‘Bloom’ (set to release in 2025) or galavanting throughout the world and cannot wait for more musical experiences.
