About Andrew McConathy

While the 2020 pandemic spelled doom and gloom for many a musician, it signified a new beginning for Boulder-based roots artist Andrew McConathy and his band, Drunken Hearts. The guitar-playing frontman, lead singer and primary songwriter of the group known as Drunken Hearts initially thought a worldwide calamity meant the beginning of the end to a career he’s pursued since 2010. Then an angel of mercy from his past emerged, giving him a second chance to make things right in his life and his songs. McConathy’s story of give and take, rise and fall, and hope lost and found gets the personal treatment on Reckless Ways of Living, his new album just released on June 2, 2023.

About Conal Rosanbalm

Conal Rosanbalm is a singer and songwriter based in Denver, Colorado. He has shared the stage with members of Greensky Bluegrass, The Infamous Stringdusters, and Leftover Salmon, and has played with local crowd favorites Drunken Hearts. Conal has performed at Yarmony Music Festival, Mishawaka Amphitheater, The Fox Theatre (Boulder), the Aggie Theatre (Fort Collins) and Stay Gold, the late legendary dive in Austin, Texas.
