Music scene · Mead

Mead is a small farming and ranching town on the plains north of Denver where music centers on school programs, church services, and community events. Its rural setting means there is no commercial music scene.

The high school auditorium, church fellowship halls, community center, and county fairgrounds host music. A few local bars feature acoustic acts. For paid club work, musicians head to Longmont, Boulder, or Denver.

Hometown players and area cover bands are the usual performers, while Denver musicians occasionally drive north for festivals and private parties.

Join school music programs, play at the county fair and community events, and ask local bars about acoustic nights. Use Denver and Boulder open mics to find paying gigs while staying active locally.
