Imagine this: You’re sitting outside letting the sun beams sink into your skin as the first bass notes of the day begin pulsing through your bones, a belly full of tacos and craft beer in hand, you close your eyes, become one with the collective consciousness of the crowd around you as the conversation of good friends fade into a moment of solace, relaxing deep within your mind, there’s nothing but you and the pervasive vocals of St. Beauty as rich, complex synths rain down around you, clarity washes over your body, this is heaven sent, this is what you’ve been waiting for, this is Oaktopia. Now come back to reality and get ready to experience this immersive music festival with another set of recommendations from your friends at We Denton Do it, we’ll help you get that second day schedule on track.

Summer have you searching for new music perfect for driving on these long sunny days? The kind of songs which pair well with splitting a six pack of Armadillo Ale on the courthouse lawn with a good friend, or laying out, feet up, shades on, poolside at an apartment complex where none of your friends live, but there’s always someone swimming who knows your name? This month’s 3 Songs column brings you a trio of fresh, local tracks from Mah Kee Oh, Exit Glaciers and Pageantry which we’re confident will fill those summer cravings.

THE DEN10: FEBRUARY 10TH 2016
As you find your self staring down the barrel of another Valentines Day, consider these events for your weekend plans. All of them have been painstakingly hand-picked for quality and diversity. The most important event this coming week is the 64th House District Republican Primary Debate we’re hosting at Dan’s Silverleaf on Monday at 7PM. City councilman Kevin Roden will moderate and Glen Farris will keep time. This is a pretty unique event as it is possibly the only debate for the state level position that is open to the public (with access to beer, no less). The event will be live-streamed and we encourage you to come out and check out the candidates, one of which will most likely take the HD64 seat. Take your photos and get in the know, y'all.
Questions, comments, and additions can be sent to glen@wedentondoit.com.

3 Songs is a monthly music column where we highlight a few tunes from local bands we're digging at the moment .

So this month, we're shining the light on a few of our favorite local singer-songwriters: Megan Storie, Brack Cantrell, and Claire Morales.
