eTown Taping with Steve Poltz
2025-12-06 19:00 - 21:30 | eTown, 1535 Spruce St, Boulder, CO, United States
About Steve Poltz:
It might’ve even been last night, but Steve Poltz just played the greatest show of his life. Guess what?
The next show will be even greater, making that show the greatest show of his life.
Are you starting to notice a trend?
He isn’t shy about it either.
Even after most likely thousands of shows (but who’s counting?), he hits the stage with the same amount of energy and always makes sure to declare, “This is the greatest show of my life.”
It’s why he’s quietly emerged as the kind of live phenomenon celebrated passionately by a diehard fanbase worldwide and renowned as a festival favorite everywhere from Bluesfest in Byron Bay and High Sierra Music Festival in California and Telluride Bluegrass Festival in Colorado to Cayamo Cruise (where he actually got married). It’s why his music has crept into pop culture via collaborations with everyone from Jewel and Billy Strings to Molly Tuttle, Sierra Hull, Nicki Bluhm, Oliver Wood and even the late Mojo Nixon. It’s why after over a dozen albums he’s still creatively firing on all cylinders and critically acclaimed by the likes of Rolling Stone, Associated Press, Billboard and many more.
Nevertheless, the next gig will be the greatest show for him (and maybe for you too)…
“I started doing it years ago, because I feel grateful to still be alive,” he notes. “Even today, I still do it, and I believe my own bullshit. I convinced myself that every show is the greatest show I’ve ever played. They’re all different, and it depends on my mood each day, but I know I’m there to entertain people. It always cracks me up when I stumble into some sort of weird thing that’s handed to me like a gift from the freaky deadly heavens above.”
Poltz might as well be “a gift from the freaky deadly heavens above” himself. He was born in Nova Scotia—Halifax, to be exact. Somewhere along the way, he began his relationship with the guitar at six-years-old. “We’re joined at the hip and lip and it’s always near my grip,” he affirms. He grew up in Los Angeles and Palm Springs (where he “met Elvis and Liberace”) and settled in San Diego (where he cut his teeth “under the tutelage of The Beat Farmers”).
He kicked off his musical journey in San Diego-bred underground favorites The Rugburns. However, the world got to know Poltz when he co-wrote two tracks from Jewel’s diamond-certified debut Pieces Of You, including the multi-platinum Billboard Hot 100 #2 “You Were Meant For Me” (he’s also in the video). He delivered his own full-length debut One Left Shoe in 1998 and paved the way for an extensive solo catalog defined by what he calls “evocative lyrics mixed with positivity and traces of tragicomedy.”
If you so choose, you can trace his evolution from “Everything About You” (which popped up in Notting Hill) to the staple “Can O’ Pop”—christened “a fizzy delight” by Rolling Stone. The latter graced his 2022 album Stardust & Satellites.
Co-produced and created with The Wood Brothers, it garnered widespread acclaim. HOLLER. hailed it as “a wonderfully energized, often joyful and wryly provocative release from the charismatic Steve Poltz,” while No Depression dubbed it “poignant and ultimately uplifting.” Glide Magazine applauded how, “He takes chances like few others and seems to be increasingly more unconventional as he embraces Americana.”
Simultaneously, a myriad of artists continue to seek him out as a collaborator in the studio. Whether it be “Leaders” with Billy Strings or “Million Miles” with Molly Tuttle, he’s got dozens of cuts with various friends under his belt. He contributed two tunes to Deer Tick’s Emotional Contracts with frontman John J. McCauley going on to profess to Brooklyn Vegan, “Steve Poltz may be the biggest, most direct inspiration for me on this record.”
Poltz adds, “Usually when these folks and many others come over to my house in Nashville we end up with something I love. I try not to overthink it. There are no rules. It’s kind of like fishing. You don’t catch anything if you don’t throw your rod in the water. So I guess I just try to be available for inspiration, mixed with perspiration and exasperation.”
Speaking of perspiration, he regularly travels far and wide to audiences of all ages and all continents most every day.
“I travel from town to town and fool people,” he grins. “I sing them songs and tell them stories and somehow they decide to pay money to obtain some merch and witness the spectacle. Then I return a year later and fool them again.”
In the end, Poltz is probably gearing up for the greatest show of his life as you read this.
Thankfully, that will never change.
He signs off, “I’m just a weirdo, a freak, a bon vivant, a rounder, a rabble rouser, a workaholic, a people pleaser, an idiot and a grateful kid who ran away and joined the circus.”
Can we say it might just be The Greatest Show on Earth?!

KT Tunstall with Emily Scott Robinson
2025-12-06 20:00 | Boulder Theater, 2032 14th St, Boulder, CO, United States
KT Tunstall has always lived in pursuit of creative evolution.
The Grammy-nominated, Brit Award-winning Scottish artist made an indelible mark on the music world with her 2004 multi-platinum debut Eye to the Telescope, immediately establishing herself as a formidable force.
Nearly two decades on, Tunstall’s career has spanned an eclectic array of genres – from introspective folk to blistering rock and experimental electro-pop – while she has remained one of the most iconic live performers of her generation, renowned for her extraordinary voice that shifts effortlessly from soulful to bluesy grit to delicate folk-pop. Her music embodies a balance of raw emotion and visceral energy, always remaining in constant service to memorable melody, while her live shows are punctuated by a warm and often hilarious rapport with her audience.
Tunstall’s breakthrough came in 2004 on the revered UK music show Later… with Jools Holland. A last-minute addition to the lineup after rapper Nas dropped out, Tunstall took to the stage armed with just her guitar, a loop pedal, and a tambourine on the floor. “Do that new ‘Woo Hoo’ one,” her Label Boss suggested. So she did – and the rest, as they say, is history. Her stripped-back yet electrifying performance of “Black Horse and the Cherry Tree” captivated audiences instantly, propelling her to global fame. In a pre-loop- pedal revolution era, long before artists like Ed Sheeran popularized its use, Tunstall stood out as a trailblazer and true pioneer of its use, making the ‘one-woman-band’ setup not just novel but essential. “That night made me understand something important,” Tunstall recalls. “It’s not just about the song, it’s how you execute it under pressure, how you share it. I didn’t realise how much people would love seeing how I did it. I think people got a kick out of seeing someone do something risky live, and pull it off.”
Her debut album, Eye to the Telescope, solidified her as a leading voice in the burgeoning folk-pop movement. Her debut record produced enduring hits such as the rhythmically charged “Black Horse and the Cherry Tree,” the tender ballad “Other Side of the World,” and the soaring anthem “Suddenly I See,” which would later become synonymous with The Devil Wears Prada. She recalls her Manager at the time saying to her, “enjoy this moment; they’ve used your entire unedited song for the beginning of the film, no dialogue. It’ll probably never happen like this again”. The iconic opening scene of the movie cemented her place in a defining cultural moment.
Amid a crowded field of rising female singer-songwriters, Tunstall stood apart, exuding authenticity and displaying an unmistakable stage presence and musicianship. “There are two core elements to my style,” she reflects. “I’ve got the troubadour, acoustic, emotionally driven side, and then there’s the raw, fiery rock element with a ton of teeth.” This duality – switching from heartfelt acoustic ballads to gritty rock anthems – has been a hallmark of her career.
By the time her sophomore album Drastic Fantastic was released in 2007, Tunstall had evolved from folk-pop ingénue to bona fide rock star. The record leaned further into guitar-driven rock without losing the melodic hooks that defined her sound. It reflected her resistance to being confined to one musical identity, pushing beyond her folk roots. This was further explored in her 2010 album Tiger Suit, recorded in Berlin, where she fused acoustic instrumentation with pulsing electronic beats, breaking new creative ground.
Invisible Empire // Crescent Moon (2013) marked a dramatic shift in her sound and mood. Recorded in the widescreen desert landscapes of Tucson, Arizona, the album embraced a stripped- back, Americana-tinged aesthetic, mirroring a period of personal upheaval, including the loss of her father and the breakdown of her marriage. Critically lauded, the album revealed some of Tunstall’s most intimate and vulnerable work.
As she entered the second decade of her career, Tunstall embarked on one of her most ambitious ventures yet: a trilogy of albums exploring the interwoven themes of soul, body, and mind. The first, 2016’s KIN, was the ‘soul’ record – a bright, anthemic return that rekindled her love of music after a period of disillusionment.
In 2018, she followed with WAX, the ‘body’ record, which embraced her rock instincts with a visceral intensity. The trilogy concluded in 2022 with NUT, the ‘mind’ album, written during a period of profound life changes, including her move to the U.S., as well as creating an album remotely through the pandemic. “This trilogy represents probably the most extreme and transformative period of my life,” Tunstall reflects.
Earlier this year, as the 20th anniversary of Eye to the Telescope approached, Tunstall was honored with the prestigious Ivor Novello Award for ‘Outstanding Song Collection’ – a testament to her enduring influence among both peers and fans alike. In the past year, she has toured both as a solo act and co-headliner with iconic U.S. singer-songwriter Shawn Colvin, while also serving as a special guest on tours with Roger Daltrey, and fellow Scots, Texas.
In addition to her prolific music career, Tunstall has expanded into composing for film and theater. Most recently, it was announced that Clueless, The Musical, for which she composed the music, will make its West End debut in February 2025.
Next year, Tunstall will celebrate the 20th anniversary of her seminal debut album Eye to the Telescope with a series of special performances and a re-release featuring additional tracks, including an inaugural headline show at London’s Royal Albert Hall. After two decades, KT Tunstall remains a vital, ever-evolving artist – one who continues to surprise, innovate, and captivate audiences around the world.

"Inaccessible" Presented by onX
2025-12-09 19:00 - 23:59 | Boulder Theater, 2032 14th St, Boulder, CO, United States
Join us for the premiere of “Inaccessible,” a powerful new film that inspires, educates, and mobilizes a movement for our public lands.
In this one-of-a-kind story, ski film veteran Griffin Post joins fellow athletes Eric Jackson and Emilé Zynobia to look beyond the steepest lines and biggest peaks to find public land on an expedition into a landscape divided. “Inaccessible” reveals landlocked boundaries that partition millions of acres of public land from the public, and follows a search for something deeper than snow. A ski film that tackles an issue commonly known to hunters, this film reveals that landlocked land is bigger than any single boundary line or pursuit.
Following the screening, a live panel discussion will feature athletes from the film, Ryan “Cal” Callaghan from MeatEater, and Jim Petterson from the Trust for Public Land. The conversation will be moderated by Whitney Potter Schwartz from Outdoor Recreation Roundtable.
Explore new products and enjoy giveaways from onX and film partners, including Smartwool, Decked, and Tin Cup.
Don’t miss the kickoff event of the snow season!

Aaron Abke -- "The Three Beliefs of Ego"
2025-12-10 18:30 - 19:30 | Boulder Bookstore, 1107 Pearl St, Boulder, CO, 80302, United States
Aaron Abke will speak about and sign his new book, The Three Beliefs of Ego: A Sufferer’s Guide to Freedom, on Wednesday, December 10th at 6:30pm, at Boulder Bookstore. Tickets for this event are $5 (plus a small processing fee) and are available on Eventbrite.
About the Book:
The Three Beliefs of Ego explores a simple but transformative idea: that the ego, often misunderstood, is structured around three unconscious beliefs — lack, attachment, and control. These beliefs quietly shape how we think, feel, and respond to life, giving rise to emotional pain.
In this debut work, spiritual teacher Aaron Abke draws from his background in both Christian theology and nondual spiritual teachings, incorporating both Eastern and Western perspectives to map a clear path toward healing. At the heart is the Emotional Guidance System, a practical tool for recognizing ego patterns in daily life and shifting beyond them. This book offers a direct and accessible framework for anyone looking to understand the roots of suffering and rediscover a more peaceful, authentic way of being.
IMPORTANT TICKETING AND EVENT INFORMATION
Tickets are $5 (plus a small processing fee).
A coupon good for $5 off a copy of The Three Beliefs of Ego, or a purchase on the day of the event is included with your ticket. You will receive this coupon at the event.

eTown Presents Glen Phillips (of Toad the Wet Sprocket) with Anna Cutler

About Glen Phillips:
During his years as lead singer and main songwriter of Toad the Wet Sprocket, Glen Phillips helped to create the band’s elegant folk/pop sound with honest, introspective lyrics that forged a close bond with their fans. When Toad went on hiatus, Glen launched a solo career with his album Abulum, and stayed busy collaborating with other artists on various projects including Mutual Admiration Society, with members of Nickel Creek and Remote Tree Children, an experimental outing with John Morgan Askew.
“Until recently, I’ve seldom stayed in one place for very long,” Glen says, explaining the genesis of his new album, THERE IS SO MUCH HERE. “I was lucky during the COVID lockdown to move in with my girlfriend, now wife, and to be home for the longest stretch I’ve had since the birth of my daughter, 20 years ago. I began noticing the little things. After a life of travel and seeking out peak experiences, I began to appreciate sitting still, watching the paint dry and loving it,” he says. “I’ve been playing a songwriting game with Texas folk singer Matt The Electrician, for about ten years. Every Friday, he sends out a title. We have a week to write a song that includes it. The process allows me to write songs I wouldn’t write on my own. I’m always surprised at what comes out.”
“When my friend John [Morgan Askew] invited me to come up to his studio and make music, I said, ‘Yes’, as I collected a bunch of the new songs and headed up to Bocce Studios, in Vancouver, WA. John invited drummer Ji Tanzer and bass player/multi-instrumentalist Dave Depper along. When we started playing, I wasn’t sure we were aiming for, but as the process unfolded, the songs began to make sense together.”
Glen’s previous solo record, SWALLOWED BY THE NEW, was about grief, a post-divorce outing while THERE IS SO MUCH HERE finds him writing love songs again focusing on gratitude, beauty and staying present. “With this batch of songs, I noticed I was writing hopeful music again,” he says. “I’d turned the corner and was more interested in curiosity and play than I was in gazing at my navel. I was finally in a state of being that wasn’t about grief and loss. Things felt doable and even exciting again.”
“As I sat still during the lockdown, I realized how much is always here – in the space around me, in the sensations of my body, in the sounds and smells and tastes and thoughts that emerge and drift away. It’s not a new concept, but it is a novel experience when you’ve spent your life running from one thing to another.”
Ultimately, as Glen reflects on the album, he shares: “This is an album about showing up for what is and letting it be enough.”
About Anna Cutler:
Anna Cutler is a singer/songwriter and keyboardist based out of Boulder, Colorado. She started playing the keyboard at the age of six, by 13 she had booked her first gig, and by 18 she had performed to a crowd of 3,000 people.
Above anything else, Anna is an entertainer. Inspired by other singer-songwriters like Norah Jones and John Craigie, she loves to connect with fans through lyrics and storytelling. She often sings about the romance of life and the downfalls of love, and offers her audience a bit of comic relief in-between songs. She shines brightest when performing live, and captivates the crowd, whatever the size, with her witty charm and truthful portrayal of life.
It is not easy to stick Anna into a single genre. Her voice is raspy yet sweet and she writes music as if she were the lovechild of Adele and Regina Spektor; call it Americana/Folk-Pop with ballad undertones if you must.
Anna Cutler was selected as one of ten finalists in the nationally recognized songwriting competition at Folks Fest in 2023. Her song “Candle” was selected out of over 400 entries and secured her a performance on the Main Stage at Planet Bluegrass, and in 2024 she took home a second place award for her song “Temporary Fall.”

Circle Singing with Creativity Alive & Roy Willey
2025-12-11 19:00 - 20:30 | First United Methodist
Please join us for a night of Circle Singing in the beautiful energy and resonance of the Labyrinth at Boulder’s First United Methodist Church. These evenings are a luscious dive into the practice of Circle Singing, a community singing and sounding practice, spontaneous and evolving — like a drum circle for voices.
Based on practices developed by Bobby McFerrin and his collaborators, Circle Singing is a supportive, judgment-free space to play with your voice. Leaders create songs in the moment — patterns, percussive sounds, rhythms, harmonies, melodies, recognizable words, or invented language — and teach the parts orally to the rest of the group. The parts layer together into completely original compositions, each song a unique creation, never sung before, never to be sung again.
It’s a very organic, playful, community singing experience. All voices are welcome!
$25
Free parking. Details sent out with advance registration.
