People wait outside Hi-Dive on Broadway to see a show, part of the Underground Music Showcase in Denver on Friday, August 27, 2021.

This episode of Colorado Today is hosted by Haylee May and Arlo Pérez Esquivel. It’s edited and produced by Jo Erickson, Mateo Schimpf, and Stephanie Wolf. The executive producer is Rachel Estabrook. Theme music by Pedro Lumbraño.
