We are wondering if you would take a second to vote for us in the "local band" category of the Channel 7 " Denver A-list". Your votes have already helped us win a Westword award this year, if you'd like to vote for us for this, we would certainly appreciate it!

Thanks! Follow the link below to vote.

Sat at The UMS!

 Hello Friends -

Saturday night (July 24) we will be playing at the Skylark Lounge at 140 S Broadway in Denver as part of the UMS. We go on at 11:55 PM. The UMS is the biggest music festival of its kind in the region with over 300 bands playing over 4 days on 25 different stages all in Denver's South Broadway neighborhood. One low priced wristband gets you access to all this friendly mayhem in what is easily the best live music value you could ever hope to find! We hope you'll join us there!

You can find info on the fest here: http://www.theums.com

You can find some very kind words about our performance at last year's UMS here (check out number 5): http://tinyurl.com/ums10

Every year in conjuntion with the UMS, The Denver Post polls over 60 "local music experts" and asks them to vote on what local bands they think are "most deserving of more mainstream recognition". Out of 600 bands considered, we are honored to have broken into the top ten. You can see it here: http://www.denverpost.com/music/ci_15526484

That's all for this time, we hope to see you on Sat at The UMS! Thanks!

-Sincerely, Us.

We're back! Thursday show and a thank you!

 Hello Friends –
 
We wanted to let you know three quick things:
 
1) We had a great time on tour, but we are glad to be back home. Our first show back in Denver will be this Thursday night (July 15) at The Hi-Dive (7 S. Broadway, Denver) with Or, The Whale, who are coming all the way from San Francisco, and Denver’s own Dan Craig. The show starts at 8 PM and we would love to see you there. (http://www.hi-dive.com)
 
2) Thanks to everyone who voted in the Westword Music Showcase, because of your vote we won the “Country / Alt-country” category for the third straight year. Thank you very much for voting for us, we totally appreciate it! (See all results here: http://blogs.westword.com/backbeat/2010/07/2010_westword_music_showcase_a.php)
 
3) The UMS is coming! That’s the Underground Music Showcase, which is a several day, multiple venue music event held on South Broadway. As part of this event, we’ll be playing at The Skylark Lounge at 11:55PM on Sat July 24, and we’d love it if you could make it to the show. Even though this is already one of the best live music bargains in Colorado with over 300 bands, you can make it an even better deal by buying an advance wristband at this web site.

Thanks!

Press

 

Listen to what these fine folk have to say, we didn't even bribe them:

***************

"Alt-country perfection."

-The Denver Post

*************** 

". . .an endlessly enchanting band."

-Westword Music Blog

***************

“Throughout the album, the deft, soulful musicianship of all five Hollyfelds stand out, but it’s Eryn’s and Kate’s stunning harmonies that make Saratoga an utterly delightful listen. Their honeyed voices contain just enough of the whiskey and heartache that makes great country music.”

- Westword

***************

" [The Hollyfelds] have made a name for themselves. . . via hotly written alt-country tunes [and] masterful harmonizing, [Saratoga is] poetic."

- The Denver Post

***************
"The Hollyfelds have made one of the finest alt-country albums of the past 10 years. . . Saratoga is a musician’s dream. Start with the dueling vocals of Eryn Hoerig and Kate Grigsby. Their vocals wrap around one another in harmonies so tight they’ll make you want to cry, laugh out loud and jump for joy. . . [The Hollyfelds] are writing the next generation of country standards (or what should be, in a perfect world). Buy It Now!"

- Wildy's World Blog

***************

"[Saratoga is] A fine set of ragged-edged, buoyant DIY-billy, with a bouncy rock backbeat behind a mostly-acoustic band and twin gal-harmony vocals. . . Fans of Freakwater and Lone Justice will recognize kindred spirits. . . [Saratoga is] full of plenty of pleasant surprises. . . The Hollyfelds sing and play with a conviction and sincerity that's refreshing to hear."

- Slipcue.com

***************

"The Hollyfelds' boisterous set at the Meadowlark on Saturday satisfied completely. . . mining a vein of traditional country-folk that invigorated the crowd. . .led by silk-voiced singers Eryn Hoerig and Kate Grigsby, [The Hollyfelds] ran through a set of originals and covers that helped the subterranean Meadowlark feel like a summery back porch."

- The Denver Post

***************

"Talk about sweet - take one listen to the harmonizing vocals of Eryn Hoerig and Katie Grigsby, and you will fall in love with this band."

- The Vail Daily

***************

"I really like the harmony. . .That was phenomenal. . .I really like the song [Empress of Wyoming]."

- Hyper Nonsense no.26

***************

". . . all-out country music . . .with. . .two stunning front women and [a] solid, swaying rhythm section. . .charming. . .Their lazy country pace and swelling two-part harmonies made crying in your beer the most natural thing to do."

- Japan Implosion no.7

***************

"I was laying down listening to this. . . and suddenly it occurred to me 'Oh man, this is not the band I'm going to see tonight! They are halfway across the country!' and I was totally disappointed."

- Hardcore-troubadours.com

***************

"[They] make the Dixie Chicks look like shit."
