One of Caspertown’s Native Suns, persistent bright spots in our community, Nick Cantine has been whipping up a heck of a lot of magic at his Harmonyx Audio studio. A long time friend to Wyoming’s music scene, both behind the scenes and on stage, Nick has been helping this place be more creative and expressive since I met him in High School. Half a lifetime later we’re still here, Wyoming has an incredible collection of artists that Nick has helped put out increasingly professional and exciting recordings, and we’ve finally got a few stages that can properly accentuate our incredible artists.
The Rialto has been brought back to life as an incredible performance venue that has had it’s share of Comedy acts come through in it’s first year with live performances this century. Was it ever a theatrical stage or always a movie theater? It sure is tight to the alley back there…
With 5 bands taking over The Rialto’s stage, there were ample guitars and humans on stage all night. The show was played round robin with the next band drawn out of a hat after the first band played their first 3 songs. Keeping the action rolling all night and the vibe in a constant state of churn. All the bands brought an incredibly signature Wyoming grit, that was offset by each of their own sounds.
From the sweet melodies of the Pleasure People, to Speed The Pilgrim’s pace and technical expression the stage was FULL of great vibes, and incredible performers all night. Harmonyx Audio has done a great deal to solidify the professional sound and presentation of our local music scene, check them out if you’re in the market for any music production around the cowboy state. Check out all the incredible bands on their own adventures around WYO.
And, enjoy the rest of the photos from the show!
