History

edit

Though they've been touring Colorado for almost 2 decades, the band completed it's first international tour in 2017, playing in various venues in Belgium. The band performed at the short-lived Grandoozy festival in 2018.[7] The band was the first to play Red Rocks Amphitheater after the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.[8] [9] "Freedom Don't Come Easy" was released in 2024.[10] In July 2024, the Gas Pops announced plans to record a new album at Dockside Recording Studio with Steve Berlin of Los Lobos producing. This will be the bands second album recorded at Dockside and first production with Berlin.
