Gaijin Street Food
2021-07-02 16:00 - 20:00 (America/Denver) | CO
We serve Asian street food and inspired cuisine from our kawaii truck.
We hail from Baltimore but consider Longmont our home. We love the community, the people and the beer! When we first met, Brooks was a chef in Baltimore and April was in the wine industry. April had studied abroad in Japan while in college and Brooks loved Anime, Ramen and most things Japanese.
After moving to Colorado and landing pretty fast in Longmont we talked about doing a large trip abroad. Japan HAD to be on the list, also Southeast Asia for its accessibility, relative inexpensiveness and all around deliciousness. We ended up in Asia for 3+ months traveling to Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, Laos and Malaysia. Realizing how broad the food scene is out there and how little we actually see of the different styles here in the states, we decided it would be cool to bring some of that back with us.

Deliberate Kin
2021-06-18 18:00 - 20:30 | CO
Deliberate Kin is shaking up their tiny part of the world. Alex and Amanda Jo are a husband and wife duo, traveling full-time as musicians with their two young daughters. Although Alex has been playing guitar for 21 years, he can pick around on nearly any instrument you place in his hands. His style is a bold blend of flat-picking run-away melodies while simultaneously holding down a driving bluegrass bass beat. Amanda Jo started singing and performing at the age of 8 and went on to earn her Fine Arts degree in college. Equal parts charisma and power, her voice and stage presence have been described as mesmerizing. With nearly 50 years of entertainment between the two of them, you are guaranteed a great show! They dare to bring light and joy with them wherever they travel and they’ll gladly share it with you. Their show starts with smiles, builds you up with laughter and leaves you with hope and high-fives. Songs full of emotions, sweet harmonies and warm acoustic tones wash over you. Every story they tell is laced with humor and rings with truth and you can’t help but be encouraged and empowered because of it. Deliberate Kin’s music would be enough, but they go above and beyond to engage the audience in an energetic, uplifting show! Fans have sent messages days later, expressing how the show was exactly what they needed to make it through their week. DK believes that music is a healing art. Every person experiences it differently. They invite you to come as you are and take what you need. There is something for everyone here.

Brian Collins
2021-06-04 18:00 - 20:30 | CO
We welcome Brian Collins of The Seers for a special solo performance.
Writer, vocalist, pianist, and multi-instrumentalist Brian Collins has seen the world through music since he was six. Blind from birth, Brian’s father taught him drums and keyboard at an early age. He then learned tuba, trumpet, bass, guitar, and synthesizers. He now writes music as he swims, working out complex arrangements that he’ll later perform on drums, piano and guitar.
In 1999, Brian was studying music at UNC-Greeley, but “sight-reading” classical music required too many hours of monotonously memorizing sheet music. Deciding to re-focus on his own progressive rock music, Brian began building a career as a musical performer and writer.
Working odd jobs, Brian transferred back CSU and eventually earned a B.A. in Social Work in 2013 – the same time he was training at a Fort Collins Piano bar and beginning to see a way to sustain himself through performing music with the Seers and as a solo pianist / vocalist.
Brian has since worked professionally as a musician, and is excited to share his newest songs in creative new ways.
When he’s not doing the business of writing, performing and networking for the Seers, spends his free time swimming, writing, and taking care of his family and friends.

Many Chicagoland natives make-up Longmont’s diverse community – and Jonathan Bjorgo is no exception. The Windy City native grew up on Chicago’s street fare and dreamt of opening his very own hot dog joint since he was a young kid. Unable to resist the lure of the Rocky Mountains, Jon leaped at the opportunity to serve Longmont’s community with Chicago’s finest street fare: Chicago style Vienna beef hot dogs, authentic Italian beef, hand-cut potato fries, and other take-out greats.

Chandler Holt
2020-10-03 18:00 - 20:30 | 321 Mountain Avenue, Berthoud, CO, 80513, United States
Chandler Holt’s musical odyssey began over 20 years ago from the confines of John Teer’s infamous ‘hoopty’. The two long-time friends were riding along when Teer played a bootleg tape of the Bluegrass Album Band from a gig in Myrtle Beach in the early ‘80s. Holt recounts, “Something about it absolutely floored me. J.D. Crowe’s banjo instantly took hold of me and for some crazy reason I thought I could learn how to do that. The very next day I drove to the town of Wendell, NC and bought my first banjo.”
Fast forward to Chandler Holt now stepping into an unfamiliar role: Producer, writer, and arranger of a twelve-song album on Robust Records titled Cover More Ground officially out on November 8, 2019. The material on Cover More Ground touches on many of the same elements as does Chatham County Line, the NC-based band Holt performed with for two decades, yet there is a distinct shift that proves Holt is following his own voice. Songs like ‘Give Your Heart’ and ‘Moving On’ define Holt’s ability to write from a place that isn’t bound by genre. ‘Been Around’, ‘Young Man Lives,’ and ‘Love You Tonight’ seem very personal and expose Holt’s willingness to invite listeners to understand his life from the first person. Couple that with the fact that banjo, guitar, and bass all find their way into Chandler’s hands, and you start to discover the dedication he has to his craft.
Cover More Ground features a stable of great players from both Holt’s new home in Colorado as well as his native North Carolina. The bulk of the project was recorded at Vermillion Road Studios which is owned by renowned Colorado musical fixture and friend Eric Wiggs. Wiggs is featured throughout the record on guitar, mandolin, and dobro. “This record could never have happened without the know-how and brilliant playing from Eric Wiggs. He is an artist in every sense of the word. He knows how to get good sounds and is willing to try new things if he needs to find something better.”
Holt’s NC buddies John Teer and Greg Readling (from Chatham County Line) put their stamp on the project as well as Andrew Marlin (of Mandolin Orange). Cover More Ground is an album that loosely chronicles Holt’s journey in leaving North Carolina for his family’s new home in Colorado. Of this, Chandler says, “Colorado is a wellspring of talent both musically and culturally. There are so many inspiring musicians and songwriters all over the state, and they helped ignite something in me that needed to get out. I’ve found a wonderful home here is so many ways. This record shares plenty of that with the listener.”
Cover More Ground is Chandler Holt’s first album on Robust Records.

“The bluegrass duo Sugar Moon is a rising star on the Front Range folk scene, and the reason for the pair’s popularity is clear on its first album, Special Shade of Blue, a collection of gorgeous songs backed with melancholy bluegrass instrumentation.”
