Sonic Guild (formerly Black Fret), a national music nonprofit that builds communities to support the creation and performance of exceptional local music, recently expanded into Colorado. With the support of local Sonic Guild members and partners, Colorado has invested nearly $100,000 in grants and thriving wage performance fees for local artists since its launch two years ago. Now, the organization is launching its People's Choice Award.
Sonic Guild Colorado, a local chapter of a national music nonprofit that provides grants, mentoring and industry connections for Colorado musicians, is hosting a free half-day music festival (Love Your Music Fest) in Old Town Square, Fort Collins on August 5.
The diverse line-up includes Colorado bands Pink Fuzz, The Mananas, Lolita, VOLORES (bassist for Flogging Molly), local favorites Lady Denim and more.
