“Hey now! These guys are good! Who is The Barlow?” It’s a question heard regularly on nights in bars and honky-tonks across the Rockies and high-plains in the middle of the USA. The answer to this requires a more complete description of the scene you are immersed in…

There is a critical juncture, a point in space and time where traditional country, raucous roadhouse rock n’ roll, southern rock and rootsy americana all converge; that apex is where the elite in the Texas/Red Dirt Country scene have planted their flag. Replete with rowdy, boot-stompin’, up-tempo beats; sometimes cutting, often times soaring, guitar leads; rip-your-heart out fiddle and pedal steel instrumentals; feel-good bass grooves that anyone can move to; and lyrical stories cut straight from real life in middle America; it’s the soundtrack of the current-day, regular Joe and Jane.

This is exactly who The Barlow are; 4-guys, from as unlikely a place as any, to lay down the Country-Rock anthems you’d expect to hear in Austin or Stillwater; Savannah, Raleigh or Mobile. Whatever you do, just don’t call it Nashville! This is Colorado Country! Driven right out of Denver and the rugged Rockies. And that’s significant! It’s heartfelt and relatable. Above all, it’s authentic!

The Barlow are coming to the Ute Theater Thursday September 4th at 8PM.  Doors open at 7PM, Tickets are only $15 before doors, and $20 once doors open, so get your tickets early.
