Today
Cowboy Mouth concert: 8 p.m., The Fox Theatre, 1135 13th St., Boulder. Much like gumbo, the famous dish of their hometown, the New Orleans-born Cowboy Mouth uses a potent blend of musical ingredients — rock, blues, punk, funk, country, pop, soul and whatever else feels good — to create their bodacious, kickass tunes. Cowboy Mouth has perfected its wonderfully rambunctious style over the band’s three decades together. During that time, the group has sold over a half a million albums domestically, performed before more than 10 million people and played over 3,000 concerts. z2ent.com.
