Hi friends,
Look at me sending my August newsletter a whole day early!! I hope everyone's soaking up these last few weeks of summer, and if you're in Colorado I hope you have AC during this crazy heat wave!
This August is packed with performances, and I'm excited to be sharing the stage with both of my bands while also hosting another WesternWish songwriter showcase.
Whether you're in Denver, Colorado Springs, or somewhere in between, I'd love to see you at a show!
The Sophie West Band finally got photos taken!
📅 August Schedule
Saturday, August 8
The Sophie West Band
📍 Vine Street Pub & Brewery – Denver
We're kicking off the month with a FREE night of soulful blues and funky grooves. Bring some friends and come hang out! This is a bittersweet show for us – we’re thrilled to debut our new drummer, Carl Holz, but this will be our guitarist, Sean Bresnan’s last Denver show with us. Sean’s still with us for this Denver show, and our next 2 shows in Colorado Springs and Idaho Springs so make sure you come get his autograph before he moves to California and makes it big!
