Meet Brannen, Daniel, Carter, Thomas, Johnny, and Dennis (pictured left to right), the six-member band of FutureBirds. This indie rock band started their career back in 2008 out of Athens, GA and ended up playing at a local show this past Friday and Saturday night. The band is known for their unique country-rock infused sound and high energy shows; those qualities definitely showed this weekend.

After the show, Carter, the guitarist/vocalist/multi-instrumentalist, shared a little about himself and the band. “I’m so happy we’re here and I’m excited to see where we’ll go next,” he said. They are currently on tour around the U.S. until the beginning of August, next stop being Lawrence, Kansas. The band then travels further North to Wisconsin and Illinois before heading back down to the Southeast to wrap up. They play shows all over the country, but when asked what he loved about the Boulder area, Carter pointed out towards the rest of the crowd and said “This. The people, the fans. It’s such a great vibe out here.”

The next time this great band is in the area, be sure to check out a show.

Thank you for taking the time to share with us, guys!
