]]> Don’t miss us early in the evening this Saturday to support Teller Elementary! Conceived in 2004 by music-loving Teller parents, the event has grown into this east Denver elementary school’s biggest fundraiser.

But this event is not your typical school fundraiser. Don’t expect kid music. This show is going to ROCK! And while, yes, kids are welcome – Tellerpalooza shows what makes Teller special. A community that enjoys a great time, great music and each other.

Tickets are still available! See you there!

We entered the room with a marching band and covered Gwen Stefani’s Hollaback Girl. It’s a great video of a great night!

]]> Julie was able to sing with her father in a low-key setting last weekend while she still recovers from her neck injury. Several band members were able to be there to cheer her on. We’re always amazed at how fantastic her voice sounds in every situation. Here she is singing “What A Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong.

]]> With the help of our friends, the High Tops and SF1, and the blessing of Julie, our singer holed up in the hospital… we are going to play this Saturday night with the awesome Chiddy Bang.

It won’t be the same Skizzum you are used to, but we’ll definitely give you a show to remember. Andy Rok will take over the vocals (like Bop Skizzum circa 2005) and MCs will help make Skizzum rock the house. Funk and Hip Hip go together like peanut butter and jelly, RIGHT?

Let’s DO this!
