Mountain Standard Time to Bring Fall Tour to the Fox Theatre, 11/15

Z2 Entertainment will present Mountain Standard Time at the Fox Theatre on Saturday, November 15th, 2014. Tickets are on sale for $12.00 in advance or $15.00 day of show.

Following a successful Kickstarter campaign to build a recording studio and a summer that included Summer Camp Music Festival, Wakarusa Music Festival, Leftover Salmon's Rock & Ride Rendezvous and a Cervantes' Other Side July residency in Denver, Mountain Standard Time hits the road this fall in anticipation of the band's upcoming album, Highway Lines, due out this fall as well - more information on the album coming soon.

Fall tour takes MST's Rocky Mountain FreeGrass through Southwest Colorado and the front range of Colorado, including The Aggie Theatre in Fort Collins with Fruition, the band's first appearance at Denver's The 1up Colfax, and the return to The Fox Theatre in Boulder. The band travels to the Midwest through Iowa, Chicago, Michigan and Minnesota's Harmony Park - Oaktoberfest.

Finally, tour rolls to the West Coast as MST covers Northern and Southern California through Halloween weekend, including Railroad Earth's Hangtown Halloween Ball and stops in San Francisco and Los Angeles, among others. Plus Mountain Standard Time will jump to Texas for Art Outside Festival.

For Mountain Standard Time, there is one focus: making good, honest music. The organic

process of expression-from heart to hands to ears-preserves the integrity of the finished product. While the band spends an exhaustive amount of time crafting and perfecting their material, they don't pay any mind to the rules and confines of genre. With elements of Bluegrass, Prog Rock, Latin and Americana, attempting to categorize the band can be challenging. MST coined the term "free grass" so that they could stop focusing on labeling their music and stick to what they do best: playing it.

MST brands its own style of "Rocky Mountain FreeGrass," blending acoustic guitar and mandolin with keyboards, electric bass, and drums. The members of MST migrated to Colorado from different regions of the country, bringing wildly diverse musical backgrounds and influences along with them. Their paths eventually crossed in Nederland - a small, Colorado mountain town steeped in bluegrass music. Musical relationships were forged through the camaraderie of late- night jam sessions that characterize the music scene of the Front Range. Shortly after meeting, MST grew quickly and performed all over Colorado and across the country, with appearances at Wakarusa Music Festival, 10,000 Lakes Festival, Summer Camp Music Festival, and NedFest, among many others.

After some time away from the road, MST returned back to the live music scene in 2012. The

band's sound adds new dimension as Zack Scott (drums), Nick Dunbar (mandolin, guitar) and Stanton Sutton (guitar, mandolin) are joined by Otis Lande on bass and Ryan Ebarb on keyboards. Solid vocal harmonies and genuine lyrics interplay with well-crafted melodies over a soundscape that varies from lush and delicate to lively and complex-often within the same song. Plenty of room for improvisation keeps everything exciting, while unique transitions stitch it all together. They released their first EP, Sunny, in early 2013, which captures the spirit of the band's live energy.
