We got together with Andrea for a quick Q & A about summer events, trends, and the local music scene:
**
In the summer, what are your favorite types of events in Colorado?
I love anything outdoors! Anything that includes trying or tasting something new. Live Music....Sold! An event paired with a cause, always a win.
I love the Snowmass Mammoth Fest, Music, Brews and Chili in Snowmass, you can't beat that. I always love the Irish Festival and Film on the Rocks too.
Or, any of A-Dre Productions events!
What trends are you liking this summer?
I think people are really into trying new things, I think they are sick of the same 'ol same 'ol stuff, whether it's a new fun cocktail, foods, activities, something interactive. The conversations I am having are around supporting local and supporting their community. Events that touch on local foods, beverage, business and nonprofits. Unique themes, fresh ideas, new concepts. Beach themes, bright colors. Instagram is growing drastically, especially around events. It's all about the experience! Integrate art and music. I think it's important to hit on the 5 senses at an event!
You are a huge music fan and promoter. What local band should we be paying
attention to now?
Well, I am entrenched in the local music scene, so, there are so many to choose from and there are so many that I have yet to uncover.
These are the top 5 on my mind right this second: Steele & Colfax, Aspen Hourglass, Red Fox Run, Sarah & The Meanies and
An up and coming music festival that should be on your radar this year is the Higher Ground Music Festival on August 23rd! 40 Bands and Barcelona is the headliner!
For those interested in music, education and our youth,
Youth On Record is an organization that I absolutely love and I just ended a 3 and ½ year term on the Board of Directors.
What is your ideal day-off?
Connecting with Friends/Family. Drinking Wine, Netflix binging, and spending time with my husband and my puppy Myriah.
