Denver

Portland-based band Denver is a neotraditional country outfit founded by songwriters and co-lead vocalists Birger Olsen, Mike Elias and Tom Bevitori. The three artists create music in the image of classic country music, emphasizing the drawled and twang of old time country vocals and instrumentation. With a solid line up of six artists who all contribute to harmonies and another pool of six musicians who rotate in and out, Denver offers a full sound with no filler, as demonstrated by the controlled vibrato of the band's self-titled 2012 debut album.
