About this concert
On Blankslate
Founded in Denver by college roommates Em, Tess and Rylee, Blankslate became one of Colorado's most beloved indie rock acts through their diaristic lyrics, atypical song structures and energetic live shows. The driving principle behind Blankslate is transformation, a belief in the possibility to become. By culling elements of disparate influences ranging from folk to grunge to classic rock, the band crafted a sound that is uniquely their own. Their first album, 'Summer on a Salt Flat,' was released to rave reviews in 2022. Their second full length is expected to be released in 2024.
On Ipecac
As a hard working, hard rocking college band on the rise, Ipecac recently released their debut EP on Denver's time honored independent record label, Sailor Records and signed with Austin's boutique rock management company, Dead Rose Management. Sailor Records describes the band as “solid rock with a soul feel and a glam flair". The lyrics convey a message of hope, but in an emphatic "don’t fuck with me" kind of way. Their new self-titled EP promises a thrilling rock 'n' roll experience that begs to be replayed time and time again.
Ipecac was voted Westword Magazine's Reader's Choice Best New Band in 2022 and Indie 102.3’s Best Local Band of 2023 out of 144 Denver artists. With a super entertaining rock show, the band has played the Denver's Underground Music Showcase for the last three years, as well as the Westword Music Showcase and FOCOMX, and was Indie 102.3's featured performance artist for July 2023. Always inclusive in their support of everyone in the Denver scene, Ipecac has donated shows for Haseya Advocacy Program, Celebration of Pride, Marshall Fire Relief and Milestones for Maxwell to name a few.
Velvet Elk Bar opens at 5 PM and happy hour runs from open to 7 PM. (21+) The Velvet Elk Lounge does not allow minors - No Exceptions.
