Colorado is home to an incredibly diverse and vibrant music scene, and because of this, it seems like we at The Prelude Press are even learning about new local artists each and every day. Try as we might, it is a daunting task trying to put a spotlight on all up and coming local artists, which is why the CO Local Compilation series is so exciting!
This Is CO Local Vol. 1 launched in 2017 and featured 16 local artists from the Colorado front range, and now, the Colorado music scene is gearing up for the release of This is CO Local Vol. 2, featuring 12 more local acts such as False Report, Line Brawl, Why They Fight, Remain and Sustain and MANY more! This is CO Local Vol. 2 will be out on Thursday, February 21st. A full track listing can be found below.
CO Local’s Schylar Woods said of the upcoming compilation, “To make this record feel more unique than our first, we incorporated a zombie takeover theme that plays on the alter ego’s of Night of the Living Shred, a thrash metal band being featured on the comp. The premise being that Ely and myself (the CO Local dudes) got kidnapped by the band and locked in their car’s trunk, where we share a few funny and embarrassing moments together while the Thrash Zombies do what they want with the album.
To help tie the story together and create this fun aesthetic, we recorded an intro, two skits, and an outro that will be strategically placed throughout the record for dramatic effect, as well as hired an artist to create us a custom cover.“
To celebrate the release of This is CO Local Vol. 2, ourfather, False Report, BullHead*DED, Oh, Whale and Night of the Living Shred will be playing a release show at The Black Sheep in Colorado Springs on Thursday, February 21st! Tickets can be purchased now HERE (the Facebook event can be found HERE) and anyone who attends the show will receive a free hard copy of the album while supplies last.
