During the 1930s jazz boom, legendary vocalists as Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis and others called Denver home. In the early 60s Judy Collins and Bob Dylan were starting their careers in Denver. Later in the decade Jimi Hendrix and Eric clapton called Denver one of their favorite cities to perform in. The 70s saw the emergence of country-folk music with John Denver leading the charge. In the late 70s heavy metal blossomed, at least underground, in Denver as metal purists know. The 80s and 90s saw Denver become fertile ground for virtually any music genre, with metal, folk, country, r&b, rock, jam, grunge, soul, jazz, funk, hip hop, punk, southern gothic and stoner all thriving. Today Denver's sound can be called 'roots' music as presented by Porlolo, Jeff Finlin, Gregory Alan Isakov, Ian Cooke, Roger Green, Bad Weather California, and Joe Sampson, among others. A list of musicians with ties to Denver is impressive: 16 Horsepower, Antonia Brico, Bob Dylan, The Apples in Stereo, The Axe That CHopped the Cherry Tree, Big Head Todd and the Monstors, Bill Frisell, The Czars, DeVotchka, Dianne Reeves, D.O.R.K. Dressy Bessy, Five Iron Frenzy, The Fray, Ginger Baker, Glenn Miller, John Denver, Judy Collins, The Minders, Slim Cessna's Auto Club, SPIV, Vanilla Fudge, Vaux, Winger, Woven Hand and Zephyr.
