The band will play down the full album and also few more originals that might be upcoming on their next release. Don’t miss their newest tunes “Neighbor Called the Cops,” “Bad News,” and the heartbreaking ballad, “The One Who Left.”

Hard copies of album will be available for purchase, featuring artwork by Hank Church and including a lyric booklet with poetry and prose by Jason Brandt. You can also pick up commemorative posters and Jason’s own text-based art. This might be the only art sale for the band, so don’t miss the opportunity to check out stylish, handmade, unique art for your wall.

Homegrown western cowboy country band Something Slight, led by songwriters Theo Snead and Alex Randall will open the night with an hour of original music and will also have their merch available!

This is a night for anyone who calls themselves a fan of country, rock, blues, funk, and soul, and wants to support a grassroots effort to promote new, Boulder-based music by totally independent artists.

We need listeners like you. Hope to see you there!

Like an angry shout from a freight train, Jason Brandt and the Build-Out delivers passionate, gritty, original roots rock — a blend of the old and the new, the rough and the refined. Jason’s snarky, bittersweet lyrics tell stories of yearning, heartbreak, regret and redemption.

Jason Brandt leads the band on vocals, tenor saxophone, and guitar. Raised on an eight-acre ranchette near San Antonio, he has been playing music and writing stories and poetry since middle school. He studied jazz at the University of North Texas alongside Micheal League and other members of Snarky Puppy, shook Herbie Hancock’s hand, and once earned a seat in the Nine O’Clock Lab Band.

Jason has played solo and as a sideman in rock, funk, jam, and jazz bands in Texas, Georgia, and Missouri until finding a new home in Boulder, Colorado in 2018. Inspired by #vanlife and dirt-bagging culture, the Build-Out was named to symbolize the values of independence, love for wild places, and tolerance to adversity. His music is for anyone who has suffered a sense of hopelessness, an empty bank account, a broken heart, for those who have lied or have been lied to, for those whose only alternative sometimes is to shout at the top of your lungs from the peak of a mountain.
