  • eTown Archive - Gregory Alan Isakov (2013)
    This week we'd like to send a birthday shout out to our longtime friend Gregory Alan Isakov (@GregoryAIsakov). Greg is a fellow resident in our hometown of Boulder, Colorado and has been joining us on the eTown stage since early on his career, with his first visit a decade ago back in 2008. Since then he has grown quite a bit to the say the least, having headlined the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre numerous times over the past few years, notably with the Colorado Symphony (@CO_Symphony).
    For this excerpt, we send it back to 2013 when Greg joined us for an 'eTown on the Road' show up in Ft. Collins, Colorado with The Head and The Heart (@headandtheheart ‏). Enjoy!
