The Watkins Family Hour

8p.m. Friday, August 28, Boulder Theater, 2032 14th St., Boulder, 303-786-7030

Before the countrywide tour and the critically-acclaimed debut album, the Watkins Family Hour was just a monthly show in L.A. for musicians to come let loose. Hosted by Sara and Sean Watkins, the show has evolved into an album and tour in which the Watkins’ intend to recreate their original folk-centric and cover-heavy Family Hours at every stop, inviting local musicians on stage to perform with the group. Among the musicians who make up the Watkins family Hour is Fiona Apple, a star in the alternative music scene who provides a great additon to the Watkins show.
