Monolith Festival

Now in its third year, the Monolith Festival at Red Rocks Amphitheatre has grown into a mecca of sorts for indie bands. For the past two festivals, Monolith co-founders Matt Fecher and Josh Baker have tapped heavy-hitters like the Flaming Lips, the Decemberists, TV on the Radio, Atmosphere and Justice. This year, they're bringing in more than fifty bands on five stages including Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the Mars Volta, the Dandy Warhols, Phoenix, M. Ward and Of Montreal.
