Nope, Treehouse Sanctum ain't country - Reverb (blog)

Treehouse Sanctum the six-piece band whose members have gathered to Denver from all over the country have a genuine sound that screams KBCO. And being mainstream Boulder isn’t always a bad thing. Especially if you have a tambourine, breathtaking harmony and a cool cat in the back playing a trumpet.  (Man, do we love the trumpet.)


Sanctum’s sound resonated with fans at The Hornet. Their music is clearly meant to make you smile, and it does. They’ve found that sweet spot between soft melodies and complicated, layered instrumental textures. We overheard some people referring to this band as “country,” but we respectfully disagree. It has a slight mainstream Nashville feel, but is far too contemporary. A couple of foot stomps don’t mean it’s country, folks.


This was not the band to get your night started off on an energetic foot. Treehouse was a nice break for those of us who’d been in the scorching sun all day and needed to take a load off, hear some lovely melodies, and then head off to the next hard-hitting UMS venue.


Thanks for the treehouse fun, kids.
