On Saturday, Leftover Salmon played an intimate show at Washington’s in Fort Collins, CO. The performance was one of the band’s Stories From The Living Room shows, which features rare acoustic performances in intimate settings with a special focus on Leftover Salmon’s new book, Leftover Salmon: Thirty Years of Festival!. The new book–written by critically acclaimed author Tim Newby–explores Leftover Salmon through their 30 years, and includes personal recollections of its band members, family, friends, former band-mates, managers, and the countless musicians they have influenced.
Leftover Salmon opened up their first set on Saturday with “Muddy Water Home”, off of the bands 1997 studio release Euphoria. The six-piece band then offered up a pair of covers with David Bromberg’s “New Lee Highway Blues” and the Grateful Dead’s “Cold Rain and Snow” followed by fan-favorite “Liza”. The band continued with speed and tenacity as they worked through “Sun Dog”, before delivering “Fayetteville Line” and “Kentucky Skies”. “Whispering Waters” off the bands 2004 self-titled album brought the first set to a close.

Following a brief setbreak, Leftover Salmon came back out to open their second set with a cover of Prince’s “7” before working through their comical and theatrical tune “Alfalfa’s”. Following the funny number depicting working in a heady Boulder, CO organic market, Leftover Salmon moved into am cover of Bob Dylan’s “Tangled Up In Blue”. LoS kept on chugging with “Down In The Hollow”, Midnight In Paris”, and “Linin’ Track”, and appropriately closed their second set with “Wake And Bake” in their home state of Colorado.
