How Big Music Money is Reshaping RiNo
May 03, 2023•20 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
There didn’t used to be a place in Denver called RiNo. So it wasn’t a problem when a bunch of artists found some space and made dusty, industrial Brighton Boulevard… cool. But now art is big business in RiNo, and several rising entertainment companies — Vinyl Me, Please; Victrola; AEG Presents: Rocky Mountains — are building Denver’s next “music district” right there on Brighton. So where does that leave the artists? And how is the local music business reshaping Denver? Host Bree Davies sits down with The Denver Post’s arts reporter and critic John Wenzel to get the scoop.
Don’t miss Wenzel’s deep dive into the companies forming a new music district in RiNo.
Bree mentioned the last-gasp effort to pass Governor Jared Polis’s big land-use bill at the state legislature this week.
