The Runners

Hi,
My name is Jeff Barrett and wanted to introduce myself and my cover band The Runner's to express interest in FoCoMX festival in downtown Fort Collins.

My Next Planet

My Next Planet is a Seattle based pop punk/rock band born from legacy and driven by passion. Founded in 2023 by Justin Coppolino, the band builds on years of songwriting, friendship, and a deep love for storytelling through music.

Fronted by Justin, a Philadelphia native, tattoo artist, and longtime musician. The trio features powerhouse drummer Ray Benitez and soulful lead guitarist Chris Wheeler, creating a sound that blends emotional depth with raw energy.

Whiskey Acolyte

Whiskey Acolyte is a high-energy rock band delivering gritty, crowd-connecting performances built on strong hooks, driving guitars, and authentic storytelling. Their sound blends modern rock power with a roots-influenced edge, striking a balance between hard-hitting anthems and melodic, emotionally grounded songs.

Sounds like: Foo Fighters, The Black Crowes, Chris Stapleton’s heavier moments, and modern heartland rock influences.

The Anhedonians

The Anhedonians are an experimental rock band formed in 2017 in El Paso, Texas. The band is a partnership between Serge Carrasco (vocals, guitar, lyrics, production) and Matthew Santillan (keys, vocals, lyrics, production). Their forthcoming sophomore concept album AIRA, or Ark of the Interstellar Revenants of the Apocalypse, is the tale of a crew of astronauts who endeavor to leave a dying Earth on an interstellar ark in search of a new home for mankind.

pillbugs

The Pillbugs (stylized as pillbugs) are a garage rock duo from Coal Creek Canyon. Sophie “Bad” Apple’s psychedelic and jazzy drums collide with Charlie Hell’s buzzsaw barre chords to create power pop chaos. Their short, catchy songs play with structure and minimalism in a way reminiscent of early new and no wave acts. 

Aftershock

Aftershock is a powerful, high-energy 6-piece rock cover band based in the Denver metro area, delivering crowd-moving performances of the biggest rock and metal hits from the last five decades. Our mission is simple: pack the room, keep people engaged, and make sure everyone has a great time.

We’re not a stand-still band. With three guitarists and a dynamic lead vocalist all on wireless systems, our performances are highly interactive — frequently moving through the crowd and creating memorable, personal moments that audiences talk about long after the show ends.
 

The Ontopsies

In true punk rock fashion, The Ontopsies are novice instrumentalists powered by ear and feel, emphasizing raw artistry over technique. Talented nonetheless, they've taken a quick upward trajectory from starting in their garage in the summer of 2025 to sharing the stage with local rock veterans like The Crooked Rugs, King Crawdad, and Jesus Christ Taxi Driver by the fall. Inspired by bands like The Cramps and The B-52s, The Ontopsies sound is dark, surfy, and affectionately referred to by Hailey Jane (bassist/vocalist) as "Halloween music."

Dead Panic

Dead Panic cooks up the improvisational sounds of the Grateful Dead with the Southern-fried grit of Widespread Panic classics. The band captures the essence of these two legendary bands, delivering high enery fun to keep you dancin'
