Neoma

Neoma has captivated music lovers all over the world with her dreamy yet energetic synth pop hits. In 2017, Neoma hit the top of the Ecuadorian charts with her infectious single Real. Since then, she’s played concerts to thousands of fans throughout the Americas.

In 2018, Neoma (Carla Huiracocha) relocated from Cuenca, Ecuador to Denver, Colorado, along with producer/bassist Danny Pauta of Nockah and Vondye, to focus on her music career. In June 2019, Neoma released Young, her first single as a resident of Denver.

Sturtz

The acoustic quartet – Andrew Sturtz [vocals, guitar], Jim Herlihy [banjo], Courtlyn Carpenter [cello], and Will Kuepper [bass] – falls somewhere at the intersection of folk and soul, with lead singer Andrew Sturtz’s melodic vocals soaring over the lower string instrumentals. Sturtz is based in Boulder, CO, making appearances at venues like eTown in Boulder, CO, the Belly Up in Aspen, CO, and the Mishawaka Amphitheater in Bellvue, CO. The band was featured on NPR’s All Songs Considered in 2020 and released their first full-length album in August 2021
