Bad Weather California

Before Denver’s rootsy indie-rock champ Bad Weather California grew into the stable, formidable four-piece lineup it is now, it was the solo acoustic project of Grand Junction’s Chris Adolf, who used to pack up his battered guitar and cross the state on any given weekend to rock assorted warehouses and DIY venues. 2009’s Young Punks was punk only in attitude and ferocity; its live show is a tenfold folk-rock projection of that. Sunkissed, the band’s follow-up with Seth Olinsky of Akron/Family, is due February 21, and the band recently released the Nice Cream 7-inch, a stopgap to help tide us over until the album is out.
