Pearl Street & Downtown
License No. 1 — the speakeasy under the Boulderado — runs live jazz and blues several nights a week. Velvet Elk Lounge books indie and songwriter sets, and Rosetta Hall adds rooftop DJs and acoustic acts to its food-hall scene.
The Anchor Venues
Boulder Theater is the city's marquee room — touring acts across every genre in a 1906 art-deco landmark. A few blocks away, the Fox on the Hill handles the louder end of the touring circuit.
Taprooms & Community Stages
Roots Music Project is Boulder's nonprofit incubator stage with shows most nights, and brewery taprooms across town — Twisted Pine among them — fill in weekend afternoons.
