This Friday's local MP3 features singer-songwriter Wendy Woo, who has been a fixture in the Denver and Boulder music scene for a decade now, releasing six CDs since 1997 and maintaining one of the busiest live gig schedules of any local artist. The coming weeks are no exception, as Woo has shows forthcoming at the Thornton Festival this Saturday, May 20 (4 p.m.), the Fox Theatre on Friday, May 26 (9 p.m., $10-$12), and at the Boulder Bandshell during the Boulder Creek Festival on Sunday, May 28 (4:30 p.m., free). Woo's music should please a wide variety of audiences with its blend of folk, rock, blues, and funk.
Wendy Woo has offered New West readers a soulful track from her 2002 album, Gonna Wear Red. Click here to listen to "Before it Gets Better." Last year, Woo released a solo acoustic live CD, Angels Laughing, and after a busy summer schedule of local touring, she's gearing up to release a new album with her band, The Woo Crew, in the winter.
