Ian Cudney // Charlie Gallant

  • Trident Booksellers & Cafe 940 pearl street Boulder, CO 80302 USA (map)

Ian Cudney is a songwriter that draws from a variety of musical influences, incorporating elements that range from a more acoustic/folky feel to alternative rock in his performance. While attending college in California, he started recording demos which eventually turned into final recordings on his independently released "Arcadia EP". Heavy layers of live-looping in quick succession are present in his performance style, giving a drive and texture that immediately draws you into the moment. 

Charles Gallant (Charlie, Chuck, or even Chazbot) is a Boulder-based performer who has been playing the living daylights out of his guitar for the past 20 years. He plays originals and covers in the style of psychedelic rock, blues, funk, and a dash of folk to taste. Heavily inspired by improvisational live acts like Phish, Grateful Dead, and the Allman Brothers, songs are frameworks for spontaneity. As he likes to say, "If I'm not making it up on the spot, finding something truly unique to the moment, and a little terrified, then I'm cheating." You can find him on instagram @charlesgallant, or singin’ harmonies with his quartet, Lost Bobcat.
