War never seems to go out of business; while we fret over the threat of increased conflicts in North Korea and Afghanistan, images of earlier conflicts stick with us, whether presented in such great paintings as Goya's "The Third of May" and Picasso's "Guernica" or in the powerful photography of Robert Capa, Margaret Bourke-White, Sebastião Salgado and countless others. Two timely new exhibits - a large group show, Art and Conflict, with views of war by Colorado artists, and a vintage propaganda/poster show, The Great War: Visions of a World Conflict.

Aside from the occasional Beyoncé surprise, music videos are something of a lost art, devolving into millennial nostalgia objects, fond reminders of an era when you could have your MTV if you wanted it. But J.D. Lopez, a local comic and host of the
Left Hand, Right Brain
podcast, celebrates music videos with the monthly Comedy Saved the Video Star, an inventive showcase that invites comics to perform a set before riffing on a music video of their choice. Fans who show up early or hang out late can also watch all their old favorites in a low-key
Total Request Live
-inspired segment. Smash-smiths Adam Fedyski, Brad Galli, Aaron Urist and Christie Buchele are all slated to perform at the Saturday, September 30, installment; Lopez will be stationed at Mutiny Information Cafe, 2 South Broadway, and ready to take requests at 9:30 p.m., roughly half an hour before the free show begins.

"I can see clearly now the rain is gone"Amidst a new album bursting with hope, joy, romance and inspiration, including eleven songs penned or co-penned by the artist, it's the Johnny Nash cover "I Can See Clearly Now" that Jonathan Butler elected to record on the So Strong album, his 15th solo collection, that speaks volumes about his outlook after a tumultuous year wrought with immense personal loss, pain and suffering. Butler's tenacious, indomitable spirit and effervescent view of silver-lined clouds infuses his music like a heaven-sent harbinger of healing."Music is spiritual and it heals. It soothes the heart and mind," states Butler, who was born in Cape Town, South Africa. In the past year, his mother passed away, he lost one of his closest friends (Wayman Tisdale), and he supported his wife (Barenese) in her battle against cancer. "Sometimes it's better not to tell people what you're going through (while you're going through it), but tell them after you've come through."Thus So Strong was born. For the singer-guitarist-songwriter-producer known for achieving chart-topping success, Grammy nominations and other accolades for his R&B, contemporary jazz, adult pop and gospel recordings, it's his first urban record in quite some time. Rather than wallow in despair, as per usual the album finds Butler celebrating life and serving as a brilliant beacon of divine light."You can't keep your head down all the time. You have to celebrate. With all that's presently going on in the world, I felt the need to give something to the fans, to offer hope. I had to get to that fun place again.

The Ken Walker Sextet is a little like the full moon, except the KWS is more dependable and swings harder. The full moon arcs gracefully across the sky. It's nice, but does it make you snap your fingers? Walker and his band evoke (but don't demand) that response.
Ken Walker started playing upright bass when he was a student at Arkansas Tech University, where he received his bachelor of music education degree. He moved to Denver in late 1985 and in 1987 began a 12-year tenure as the house bassist at Denver's legendary jazz club El Chapultepec that ended in 1998. Today, he plays regularly at DazzleJazz and is the Rocky Mountain region’s 1st-call jazz bassist. Walker has played with a veritable Who’s Who of jazz artists including: Eddie Harris, Hal Galper, Tom Harrell, John Abercrombie, Randy Brecker, Nat Adderley, Jimmy Witherspoon, Carl Fontana, Slide Hampton, Clark Terry, Joe Pass, Herb Ellis, Freddie Hubbard, Lew Soloff, Clifford Jordan, James Moody, Javon Jackson, Ray Bryant, Roy Hargrove, and many more. He has also performed at the Telluride, Jazz Aspen Snowmass and other festivals throughout the Western States, and he is currently on the faculty at the Lamont School of Music, where he teaches jazz bass to all jazz and commercial bass majors, coaching the Trad, Hard Bop and Latin Combos in addition to his studio.

New Vintage Jazz specializes in songs from the "Hard Bop" era of jazz (mid 50's thru the 60's). We do fresh versions of tunes from the great masters of the era such as Horace Silver , Hank Mobley , Art Blakey , Freddie Hubbard etc... Judging by the size and enthusiasm of the crowds at our shows ,we seem to be filling a void in the local jazz scene by playing serious classic jazz tunes that the listeners can relate to no matter how well versed in the jazz genre they happen to be.

Victorian Horrors

Attractions:
1) Zombie Apocalypse Live Training Academy: 13th Floor is bringing an abbreviated version of its popular traveling tour, Zombie Apocalypse Live! to the haunted house during the Halloween season in an all new experience called Zombie Apocalypse Live! Training Academy. In this live action, tactical experience, you will have the chance to shoot animated zombie silhouettes, as well as live zombies. Do you have what it takes to survive the Zombie Apocalypse?
2) Undead: Restless spirits – A decaying mansion sits alongside a decrepit cemetery and mausoleums just outside of Denver. This seemingly abandoned manor is a permanent home to evil permanent residents who were unwittingly awakened by a local psychic, Madame Shelta. Now, unwelcomed trespassers will relive the horror of the lady of the house who took her own children’s lives after the house terrorized her and convinced her to kill them. That unfortunately, is not the end of the story. The grief-stricken husband, in a fit of rage, murdered his wife for her evil deeds before taking his own life. The house staff discovered the horrifying murder scene and made a blood vow to keep the family safe in this life-and the next. They staff will harm anyone who dares to disturb the tragic…and gruesome final resting place.
3) Slaughter: Residents are slowly vanishing in the quiet, eerie town of Coalfell. Rumor has it that every 20 years an unusually high rate of murders with an increased number of disappearances strike the city, but no one will speak to the issue for fear they will be next. Strange reports describe terrorizing shape shifting creatures, most often seen as evil clowns. Trespassers beware, for these petrifying entities prefer new visitors. Stay focused on your visit to Coalfell, if you don’t you might just become their next permanent resident...
4) Darkest Dreams: Transcend into a dream world of terror that would scare even the bravest of souls. A demonic entity pulls you into her nightmare where she gathers all creatures of horror. You can run, but you can’t hide from Nachtmah’s deadly grip. Attempt to escape her reality, or fall prey to the demented creatures she plans to unleash on all who enter her world. You are getting sleepy…
