Artists for December 21

Liz Barnez is a captivating performing songwriter whose roots run deep in the vibrant culture of New Orleans, Louisiana. Now based in Fort Collins, Colorado, Liz masterfully blends her southern swampy influences with the majestic essence of the Rockies, creating a unique and eclectic sound that resonates with audiences across genres. Liz’s contributions to the music community have not gone unnoticed. She was inducted into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame as a member of the aptly named “Mother Folkers,” a title that reflects both her talent and the camaraderie of her peers. Recognized for her artistic excellence, she has been voted “Best Singer-Songwriter Female” and honored with a prestigious “Lifetime Achievement Award” by the Fort Collins Musicians Association (FoCoMA) for her dedication to performance and community service.

Angel Corsi is a BIPOC americana/soul artist fighting for somber people seeking hope and belonging through unfiltered storytelling and evocative songwriting. The Colorado-based songwriter’s personal and succinct writing style takes the listeners through contemplative vignettes that navigate a range of topics from politics to love and self healing. All presented through his sardonic humor & hot blooded performances.

Danny Shafer has based his life, living and reputation on making sure the song comes first. Through relentless touring and constant songwriting for 25 years he has earned himself a position as a lifelong modern troubadour. Growing up behind the wheel has had its ups and downs but has also brought Danny Shafer closer to the people and topics that make songs come alive. The Denver Post – “Shafer can stand solid next to folks like John Prine and Greg Brown — it almost feels like murder to dissect. It’s great music of the people, by the people, and for the people. Nuff said.”

Olivia “Liv” Roumel is an evocative and soulful singer, songwriter, guitarist and keys player. Hailing from Ann Arbor Michigan, but based in Denver since 2016, her music blends soulful vocals with jazz-inspired textures and nature-infused imagery. Her songs are both intimate and expansive, rooted in raw storytelling and transformative musical expression. Much of her music is written and influenced by introspection in nature, so she calls her style of music “nature-soul”.
