Salt and Shadow w/ Wes Urbaniak

Saturday, July 11 // Doors at 7:00 PM // Show at 7:30 PM // $12 // $15-$20 Artist Supporter Fronted by two female vocalists whose voices weave and harmonize throughout each song, Salt & Shadow is anchored by atmospheric guitars, cinematic textures, and a cello that doesn’t sit in the background…it sings alongside them. The result is hypnotic, heavy, and deeply spiritual, echoing the moody expanse of Pink Floyd, the harmonic richness of Fleetwood Mac, and the emotional unease of Radiohead. Wes Urbaniak is an amalgamation of songwriting, storytelling and unique craftsmanship. His music is real, honest, bold and a little odd in the best way possible. The experiences of his life have created stories through his songs. He pushes the limits within the human mind while opening up the possibilities for the human spirit to explore what’s dwelling within. There are so many special things about this band and its music, its artistic – through reclamation – endeavors, and its call to persist through the hard things is exceptional. For instance, even the instruments represent the story of the music. Each instrument contains original reclaimed Red Rocks Amphitheater bench redwood – *Wes is the Luthier behind the magical matter. You should watch the band try to explain it in its most simplest way. By listening to the music and thumbing through the story you’ll discover one of the most beautiful efforts whispered into song in these times while finding what’s good and holding care for the world we live in. It has been a bit of a destiny for Wes Urbaniak to bring his music through these instruments out into the world.
