Meet our first Artist on the Rise of the season: Emelise Munoz! ๐ค โ

As a Denver-based singer-songwriter, @EmeliseMusic blends folk-rock and Americana with raw emotion and storytelling. With a voice well beyond her years and a magnetic stage presence, she brings heartfelt energy to every performance, and weโre thrilled to be kicking off the summer with her!โ
Opening the night is The Warrior Poet, aka Pedro Abdalla (@_thewarriorpoet), a Brazilian-born, Denver-based artist whose soulful, blues-infused sound draws inspiration from John Mayer, Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, and Gary Clark Jr. His honest, powerful songwriting gives voice to everyday struggles, making for a performance that hits deep.โ
