"Tastefully fuzzy melodies ... poignant and touchingly poetic lyrics. Big Dopes is one of the best Denver bands not enough people know about yet." Tom Murphy, QUEEN CITY SOUNDS AND ART
Big Dopes recalls the loose, lighthearted feel of 90s alternative and indie pop, with influences somewhere between Paul Simon, Jonathan Richman, and Pavement. Lead songwriter Eddie Schmid uses a playful, conversational baritone to sing through neuroses and inner dialogues, touching on long-distance relationships, being a houseguest, and gratitude for friends named Tom.
In August 2021 the band made waves for its energetic live show at Denver's Underground Music Showcase festival. That November the Dopes released their sophomore album, Destination Wedding, produced by Mark Anderson (Paper Bird, The Still Tide). The group completed its first tour behind the new LP, culminating in a slot opening for Tokyo Police Club at Denver's famed Bluebird Theater and later for Colorado favorites Kiltro and Wildermiss at the Gothic Theatre.
ISADORA EDEN
"Isadora Eden is a songwriter who pairs dark, searching lyrics with a moody sound, ranging from intimate simplicity to something altogether fuller and more striking...rich and evocative...a haunting edge" - Various Small Flames
