The Fort Collins DIY scene has been breeding new bands at noisy house shows with diverse lineups for years. For some groups, this is a necessary step in their rise to popularity. For others, like the bandmates in the Crooked Rugs, it shapes who they are, and they have no plans to fully leave it behind.
Even before flagship venues like the Downtown Artery closed, house shows were the best venues in Fort Collins for musicians in their early twenties to network and grow. The Crooked Rugs have been playing these spots almost exclusively since Jayce Haley and drummer Noah Brumbach first formed the band in 2016. The group s now a five-piece, having fleshed out its lineup in 2019 with keyboardist Jay LeCavelier, guitarist Rex Stowers and bassist Finn Stowers.
