Sqwerv

Denver is one of the most fertile music cities in the country and Sqwerv is further testament to that fact.

A young band conjuring an alchemy of classic, psychedelic and indie rock, Sqwerv stand out for their soulful, detail oriented and organic flow. Well-crafted songwriting steers the ship alongside shimmering four‑part harmonies before the group often plunges into improvisational jams aimed at transcendent, spontaneous spaces beloved by jam music fans.

They tantalize audiences with groove counterpoint, polyrhythms and risk-taking. Relentlessly funky, many jams open into trance-inducing soundscapes that simmer before boiling over. They have opened for George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, Eggy, Big Something, Spafford and more. Live shows are available on the Nugs app.

Their repertoire balances dark soundscapes and beautiful explorations across originals and ambitious covers (Grateful Dead, Phish, Pink Floyd, Talking Heads, blues and soul), plus signature mash-ups. After a strong Crazy Horse debut in January, it will be thrilling to witness their evolution.
